angry women of Abington.
Coo. I see the glimpes of some body heere,
And ye be a sprite Ile fraie the bug beare,
There a goes mistresse.

Mi. Gour. O sir haue I spide you?

ExeuntFr. A plague on the boy, twas he that discried me.

Phi. How like a beauteous Lady maskt in blacke,
Lookes that same large circumference of heauen,
The skie that was so faire three houres agoe,

And being angrie at her beauteous change,
She will not haue one of those pearled starres,

I am mistaken, especially by his bow,
Franke had no bow, well, I will leaue this fellow,
And hollow somewhat farther in the fields,
Doost thou heare fellow, I perceiue by thee,
That we are both mistaken, I tooke thee,
For one thou art not, likewise thou tookst me,
For sir Raph Smith, but sure I am not he,
And so farewell, I must goe seeke my friend, so ho:

Wil. So ho, so ho, nay then sir Raph so whoore,
