SQUIRREL

Your deligence knaves, or I shall canvas your pole davyes, deafen not a gallant with your anon anon fit, to make him stop his cares at and over-reckoning. Can a mansion pur chased and paid for be converted into a house of entertainment, and subsist without comings In and goings Out? Now sir what say you? And what had they? Sixteen shillings! it's well. Saucy Scrivener! peep through a key hold! shouldst have had him by the cares. And this came freely! Go carry the blades in the Lion a pottle of sack from me: their roaring must be maintained out of my profit. They are good procurers; and help now and then to stane of and over heated Citizen that pursues his game, too eagerly. Though my ho ly-day squires of the city bring me in most gain, my free Knights of the suburbs, the erants of Lincoln-Inn fields, where their rande vous makes the gunpowder house terrible, and the smock tribute endue to their order is daily and nightly exacted: these I say are the best maintainers of my profits occasion; and Squirrel must venture cracking to maintain them while his sign and bush lasts. The poor owner of some goods and chattels; movea bles and immovables, with a small stock to drive a trade. You shall be accommodated. What you please sir. A towel firrah quickly. Exit. By the description he makes of you a gentleman below enquires for you. I was not curious to ask your name, but I know him . The same sir. What's your wine sir? This is sure some hidebound student, that proportions his exp nce by his pension; and wencheth at Tottenham court for stewed prunes and cheesecakes. He's not quainted with the generous way, and I shall have the less scruple to cousin him. Exi . So, so, this is right gentlemen; one for another. Yet she looks not Like carrion of Mr. Ravens leaving; I have sell dome known him turn over any flesh to another that hath not been sufficiently tainted. Why is she a wench? Rashbe, Spil n, Po ard, and others. Right sir. Any thing for you sir. Shall it be and affront? I have known you Mr. Raven a bird of the flesh these many years, and if I should not respect and old standard. Your aid master Raven, or we shall have murder done. The young gentleman sir, the young gentleman— Exit. I beseech you sir be pacified. Surely Mr. Raven, you were mistaken; this is no wench. The Justice knows them. Best shift for your selve least you be found the most delinquents, and forced from your were of pleasure here to peep through a grate or taste the charity of Bridewell. Exeunt Blades. You may have one of these. you are welcome with a mischief to the occasion that brought you hither. Here hath been attendance for a quart of win and that not paid for. Some better customers, or I shall crack without credit. My Blades baffled too! Their lose must be re paired upon the next advantage. You are welcome sir. Would you have a cooler sir? Excuse moi pur la. Non intendo. I'll send one to you sir. Exit. What's here? how came you bound? Not for any good behaviour. Presently sir. But now I have released you, who shall pay the reckoning? it's five shillings you and your company have had in wine. Your cloak then shall be your surety: it shall be forth coming when you please to release it. Not till you have paid the reckoning. I am not to take notice of all men's behaviour; if you admit of company and they abuse you, you must suffer for it. I mean not sir to be over reached with any of your French cheats. Not without the reckoning. A fashion of your own, and apt to be followed upon the Like occasion. Even whom you please. My correspondence with these Blades and wenches helps me and themselves to many such pur chases; yet still my house is honest. Though many will say, No matter how so they have coming in, And sin thrives best that is maintained by sin. Exit.
