Is it pos|sible | the spells | of France | should
juggle

T T T 2
Men into | such strange mys|teries?
SANDS

New | customs,
,
, , ,
,
Though they | be nev|er so | ridic|ulous,
, 2
, , ,
,
(Nay let 'em | be un|manly)| yet are | followed.
CHAMBERLAIN
, 2 ,
, ,
,
As far | as I see,| all the | good our | English
, 2 ,
, ,
,
Have got | by the late | voyage,| is but | merely
,
, 2 ,
2 , ,
A fit | or two | of the face, |(but they are /
shrewd ones)
, ,
, , ,
2->
For when | they hold |'em, you | would swear |
direct||ly
, ,
, , ,
Their ve|ry nos|es had | been couns|ellors
, 2
, , 2 ,
,
To Pep|in or Clo|tharius,| they keep | state so.
SANDS

They have / all new | legs,

And lame | ones; one | would take it, (tri

That never | see 'em | pace be|fore, the | spavin

Death | my lord,

Their clothes | are aft|er such | a pagan | cut to it,

That sure | they've worn | out Christ|endom:| how
now?

What news,| Sir Thom|as Lov|ell?
LOVELL
, ,
Faith | my lord,
,
, 2 ,
, ,
I hear | of none | but the new | procla|mation,
,
, , ,
That's clapped | upon | the court-|gate.
CHAMBERLAIN

What | is it for?
LOVELL
, ,
, 2
, x
The ref|orma|tion | of our trav|elled gallants,
??
, ,

That fill | the court | with quarrels,| talk, and
| tailors.
CHAMBERLAIN
, ,
I'm glad |'tis there;
, 2 ,
,
Now I would | pray our |
monsieurs
, ,
, 2 ,
,
To think | an Eng|lish court|ier may | be wise,
, ,
x
And nev|er see | the Louvre.
LOVELL
, ,
They must | either
, , 2 ,
, ,
(For so | run the con|ditions)| leave those |
remnants
, ,

Of fool | and feath|er, that | they got | in
France,

3 3 , ,
,
With all | their hon|orable point | of ig|norance

, ,
Pertaining thereun|to; as | fights and |
fireworks*, ??
,
, , ,
,
Abus|ing bet|ter men | than they | can be
, 2 ,
, ,
,
Out of a | foreign | wisdom,| renoun|cing clean
,

2 , ,
The faith | they have | in ten|nis and tall |
stockings,
, ,
, , ,
,
Short blistered breeches, and those types of
travel; ????
, ,
, ,
,
And und|erstand | again | like^hon|est men,
,
2 , T
Tx T
x
Or pack | to their old | playfellows; there,| I
take it, ??
, ,
, 2 , ,
They may | cum priv|ileg|io, wear | away
, ,
2 , ,
,
The lag | end of their | lewdness,| and be /
laughed at.
SANDS
, ,
, ,
, 2->
'Tis time | to give |'em phy|sic, their |
diseas||es
, ,
Are grown | so catch|ing.
CHAMBERLAIN

What | a loss | our lad||ies
, 2 ,

Will have | of these trim | vani|ties?

The dev|il fid|dle 'em,

I am | glad they are | going, (tri with prev)

A long | time out of | play, may | bring his
plainsong,

Held* cur|rent mus|ic too.

Well* said | Lord^Sands,

Your colt's | tooth is | not cast | yet?
SANDS

No | my lord,

That church|man

A hand | as fruit/ful as the | land that | feeds
us,

His dews | fall everywhere.
CHAMBERLAIN

No doubt | he's noble;

He had | a black | mouth that | said oth/er of
him.
SANDS

He may | my lord,

Has where|withal | in him;

T . T T ,
,
Sparing would | show a worse sin,| than ill | doctrine,
,
, , , ,
Men of | his way,/ should be | most lib/eral,
2 , ,
2 ,
They are set | here for ex|amples.
CHAMBERLAIN

True, they | are so;
,
, ,
T
But few | now* give | so great | ones:

My barge
stays; ??

Your lord|ship shall | along:| come, good Sir |
Thomas,

We shall | be late | else, which^|I would | not
be,
