Scene VII.
Compasse. Pleasance.Com.
Stay Mrs. Pleasance, I must aske you a question:
Ha' you any suites in Law?
Ple.
I, Mr. Compasse?
Com.
Answer me briefly, it is dinner time.
They say you have retain'd brisk Mr. Practise
Here, of your Councell; and are to be joyn'd
A Patentee with him.
Ple.
In what? who sayes so?
You are dispos'd to jest.
Com.
No, I am in earnest.
It is given out i' the house so, I assure you;
But keepe your right to your selfe, and not acquaint
A common Lawyer with your case. If hee
Once find the gap; a thousand will leape after.
Ile tell you more anone.
Ple.
This Riddle shewes
A little like a Love-trick, o' one face,
If I could understand it. I will studie it.
