I do but what my mistress gave in charge. Indeed I know your glory. Your pride's at full in this authority: But, were it not for modest bashfulness, And that I dread a base contentious name, I would not be a byeword to th'Exchange, For every one to say (my self going by) Yond goes a vassal to authority. What unless! I know your wilfulness, These words are but to show the world your humour. I often use to square these parchment pieces Without occasion: I am sure you are not witting The Lawns you lately bought of master Brooks Are new come home, brought by the Merchant's servant: I know you are short membered, but not so short Of your remembrance, that this is news to you. She's gone to M. Pawmers on th'other side. Anon. God to the Starchers for the suit of ruffs, For M. Bowdlers bans, and M. Goldings shirts, Lets have a care to please our proved friends: As for our strangers, if they use us well, For love and money, love and beware weel fell. Exeunt
