Scena. II.

Enter Littlegood.
Lit.
Are you so well resolu'd? but I may crosse you.

Ual.
Oh me my father, I am quite undone
I am no body.

Lit.
Yes, you are the wickedst,
The most vngratious child, that ever liu'd
Vnder so good a government, but that


Shall turne to tyrannie, since your discretion
Can not distinguish of the difference.
Haue I, what should I say? cherisht you up,
With tendernesse, and costly education,
To haue you made a Sacrifice to beggery,
To one that's cut off, disinherited,
The sonne of the people?

Aur.
Pray sir forbeare,
My wrongs doe not permit you to abuse me.

Lit.
Sir tis most basely done of you, to use
The charity, and freedome of my house,
Thus to seduce my daughter: but for that
If you can keepe her as well from your mind,
As I can from your sight, you may in time,
Learne to forget her. You were best goe travell,
Repaire your selfe by some new found plantation,
Not thinke to supplant my issue. This place,
Is moraliz'd with thrift and industry,
Suites not with men of your condition,
That haue no stocke but their gentry. Get you in,
And for your part sir, know my house no more,
Ile provide her a husband. So farewell.

Aur.
How ere I speed, comfort attend thee still,
And so my best Valeria fare well.
