Another Epilogue there was, made for the Play in the Poets defence, but the Play liu'd not, in opinion, to haue it spoken.
A Iouiall Host, and Lord of the new Inne,Clep't the light Heart, with all that past therein,
Hath beene the subiect of our Play to night,
To giue the King, and Queene, and Court delight:
But, then we meane, the Court aboue the stayres,
And past the guard; men that haue more of eares,
Then eyes to iudge vs: Such as will not hisse
Because the Chambermaid was named Cis.
We thinke, it would haue seru'd our Scene as true,
If, as it is, at first we' had call'd her Pru,
For any mystery we there haue found,
Or magick in the letters, or the sound.
She only meant was, for a girle of wit,
To whom her Lady did a Prouince fit:
Which she would haue discharg'd, and, done as well,
Had she beene christned Ioyce, Grace, Doll, or Nell.
