''Fran.:'' Welcome Lady gay, Oft haue I sued to thee for loue. B.: Oft haue I said you nay. ''2. F.:'' My loue is fixed. ''B.:'' And so is mine, but not on you: for to my husband whilest I liue, I will euer be true. ''F.:'' Ile giue thee gold and rich array. ''B.:'' Which I shall buy too deare. ''F.:'' Nought shalt thou want: then say not nat. ''B.:'' Naught would you make mee feare. ''3. ''What though you be a Gentleman, and haue lands great store? I will be chaste doe what you can, though I liue new’re so poore. ''F.:'' Thy beauty rare hath wounded mee, and pierst my heart. ''B.:'' Your foolish loue doth trouble mee, pray you Sir depart. ''4. F.:'' Then tel mee sweet wilt thou consent vnto my desire. ''B.:'' And if I should, then tel me sir, what is it you require? ''F.:'' For to inioy thee as my loue. ''B.:'' Sir you haue a wife. Therefore let your sute haue an end. ''F.:'' First will I lose my life. ''5. ''All that I haue thou shalt commaund. ''B.:'' then my loue you haue. ''F.:'' Your meaning I well vnderstand.

My husband is rid ten miles from home, money to reciue. In the euening see you come. ''F.:'' til then I take my leaue. ''Exit'' ''B.:'' Thus haue I rid my hands full well of my amorous loue, And my husband wil I tell, how hee doth me moue. ''Enter Richard Besses husband.'' ''To the tune of the Iewish dance.'' ''7.'' Rich. Hey doune a doune, hey doune, a doune a doune, there is neuer a lusty Farmer, in all towne. That hath more cause, to lead a merry life, Then I that am married to an honest faithfull wife. ''B.:'' I thanke you gentle husband, You praise mee to my face. ''R.:'' I cry thee mercy, Bessee, I knew thee no
