POMPEY I am as well acquainted here as I was in our house of profession: one would think it were Mistress Overdones own house, for here be many of her old customers. First, heres young Master Rash; hes in 5 for a commodity of brown paper and old ginger, ninescore and seventeen pounds; of which he made five marks, ready money: marry, then ginger was not much in request, for the old women were all dead. Then is there here one Master Caper, at the suit of 10 Master Three-pile the mercer, for some four suits of peach-coloured satin, which now peaches him a beggar. Then have we here young Dizzy, and young Master Deep-vow, and Master Copperspur, and Master Starve-lackey the rapier and dagger man, and young 15 Drop-heir that killed lusty Pudding, and Master Forthlight the tilter, and brave Master Shooty the great traveller, and wild Half-can that stabbed Pots, and, I think, forty more; all great doers in our trade, and are now for the Lords sake.

If you can, pace your wisdom In that good path that I would wish it go, 135 And you shall have your bosom on this wretch, Grace of the duke, revenges to your heart, And general honour.
