INTELLIGENCERS

Then a was naming plots; did ye not hear? I, I, a meant some Fort, or Syttadell the Duke hath, his very face betrayed his meaning, Oh he is a very subtle and a dangerous knave, but if a deal a Gods name we shall worm him. What had become of this poor state, had not we been? But note the Rascals resolution, after acts done, because a wo'd avoid all fear of torture, and cousin the Law, a wo'd kill himself? was there ever the Like danger, brought to light in this age? sure we shall merit much, we shall be able to keep two men a piece, & a two hand sword between us, we will live in favour of the State, betray our ten or twelve treasons a week, and the people shall fear us: come, to the Lord Lucio, the Sun shall not go down till a be hanged. Treason, horrible treason, I hope to have the leading of thee to prison, and prick thee on 'ith arse with a halbert: to have him heng'd that salutes thee, and call all those in question, that spit not upon thee. My Lord that is the Traitor. Lets gag him. He'll wind a Tratour I warrant him. He'll be hanged, I know by that word. Get then on before. So please your Grace we have discovered a a villain and a Traitor: the Lord Lucio hath examined him, and sent him to your Grace for Judgement. I'll quote him to a tittle, let him speak wisely, and plainly, and as hidden as a can, or I shall crush him, a shall not escape characters, though a speak Babel, I shall crush him: we have a Fortune by this service hanging over us, that within this year or two, I hope we shall be called to be examiners, wear politic gowns guarded with cop per lace, making great faces full of fear and office, our labours may deserve this. There, there's a notable piece of treason, greater then the Duke, mark that. Thanks to the gods, and our officiousness, the plots discovered, fire, steel, and poison, burn the Palace, kill the Duke, and poison his privy counsel. This is the villain, lay hands on him. Sir, though you have carried it a great while pri uatly, and (as you think) well; yet we have seen your Sir, and we do know thee Lazarello, for a traitor. Amen. Sir, Sir, this cannot save that stiff neck from the halter. Away sir. Away, away, you shall thank her at the gallows. I will die bravely, Like a Roman: have a care, mark that: when he hath done all, he will kill himself. Come let us confer, Inprimis a says Like a blasphemous villain, he is greater the ̄ the Duke, this pepers him, & there were nothing else. Yes but a fell from that, unto discovery, to cor rupt by money, and so attain. But now comes the Stroke, the fatal blow, Fire, sword, & Poison, Oh Canibal, thou bloody Canibal. Faith it had lyen buried in his own ashes; had not a greater hand been in't. Where is your Lord? My Lord, I think we have discovered one of the most bloody Traitors, that ever the world held. He's excellently spoken. The Count Valour was the first that discovered him, and can witness it, but he left the matter to your Lordship's graven consideration. I hope it shall: why ha not many men been raised from this worming trade, first to gain good access to great men, then to have commissions out for search, and lastly, to be worthily named at a great Arraignment: yes, & why not we? they that endeavour well deserve their Fee. Close, close, a comes: mark well, and all goes well. Plots, dangerous plots, I will deserve by this most liberally. Sir, you shall have law, and nothing else. There take your standing, be close and vigila ̄ to, here will I set my self, and let him look to his language, a shall know the Duke ha more ears in Court than two. Little my Lord, I only come to know how your Lordship would employ me. I saw him now my Lord. Is your Lordship in earnest? Your Lordship's Servant. Ther's another point in's plot, corrupt with more ney to betray: sure it's some Fort a means: mark, have a care. I do beseech your Lordship. Good my L.
