Let us take then Our morning draught. Such as eat store of Beef, Mutton, and Capons, may preserve their healths With that thin composition called small Beer, As it's said they do in England. But Italians That think when they have supped upon and Olive, A Root, or bunch of Raisins, it's a Feast, Must kill those cludities, rising from cold herbs, With hight and lusty wines. Yes, I know him. Quickly Remove the Flagon. My noble Lord. May it please your Honour To walk a turn in the Gallery, I ll acquaint My Lord with your being here. But what is't? French trash, made of rotten grapes And dregs, and lees of Spain, with Welch Metheglyn, A drench to kill a horse, but this pure Nectar Being proper to our climate, is too fine To brook the roughness of the Sea. The spirit Of this begets in us quick apprehensions And active executions, whereas their Gross feeding makes their understanding Like it. They can fight, and that's their all. Still when I am thirsty, and eat when I am hungry. Such Junkets come not every day. Once more to you, With a heart and a half i'faith. To choke Daws with, I Like it not. Oh, he was a rare fellow; But I fear the Court hath spoiled him. Will you join with us?

He tries to persuade Giovanni that it-would-be a bad thing for Cosimo to remarry and disinherit hini by begetting a son, but Giovanni is only concerned that Cosimo might deprive him of Lydia. They both talk down Lydia's beauty in order to dampen Cosimo’s imagined ardour. Then Fiorinda asks Cosinio's permission to introduce Lyxlia to her court, citing Giovanni's recommendation. ===== PAGE 274 ===== Realizing he has been deceived, Cosimo visits Carolo’s home. Giovanni writes to give Lydia advance warning of what he understands to be Cosimo’s dishonourable intentions, and they contrive to have her drunken servant Petronella introduced in her place. Cosimo is duly repelled, and criticizes Carolo for giving her inadequate fatherly guidance. The ruse collapses when Carolo summons the real Lydia. Cosimo has Sannazaro and Giovanni confined and summons the court. Sannazaro manages to get a message to Fiorinda, scratched onto a pane of glass which he drops to her as she arrives. She asks Cosimo to restore him to favour, and agrees to accept him as her husband even after she has heard of his interest in Lydia. Cosimo appoints Lydia and Fiorinda to judge the miscreants, reserving to himself the role of prosecutor. He reminds them that he has sworn not to marry again, and pardons Giovanni and Sannazaro upon ascertaining that Lydia and Fiorinda really do love them.
