men. [wood-cut] London, | Printed for Humphrey Robinson, and Anne Mosely, at the three Pigeons, and at the Princes Arms | in Saint Pauls Church-yard, 1661.

Another issue of the above, dated 1661, has a fresh title-page and bears the following notice :- You may speedily expect those other Playes, which | Kirkman, and his Hawkers have deceived the buyers withall, selling them at treble the value, that | this and the rest will be sold for, which are the onely Originall and corrected copies, as they were first purchased by us at no mean | rate, and since printed by us.'

B prints the Prologue and Epilogue to The Captaine as though they belonged to Beggars Bush, apparently treating the last page of The Captain in A as though it were the first page of Beggars Bush.

All. Welcom, welcom, welcom, but who shall have the keeping Of this fellow?

Hub. Thank ye friends,

And I beseech ye, if you dare but trust me;

For if I have kept wilde doggs and beastes for wonder,

And made 'em tame too: give into my custody

This roaring rascal I shall hamper him,

With all his knacks and knaveryes, and I feare me

Discover yet a further villany in him;

O he smells ranck 'oth rascall.

Ger. Take him to thee,

But if he scape

Hub. Let me be ev'n hang'd for him,

Roome Sir, I'le tye ye to my leash.

Hem. Away Rascall.

Hub. Be not so stubborne: I shall swindge ye soundly, And ye play tricks with me.

Ger. Now sweare him.

Hig. I crowne thy nab, with a gag of benbouse,

And stall thee by the salmon into the clowes,

To mand on the pad, and strike all the cheates;

To mill from the Ruffmans, commision and slates,

Twang dell's, i'the stiromell, and let the Quire Cuffin:
And Herman Beck strine, and trine to the Ruffin.

Ger.

Now interpret this unto him.
Hig. I poure on thy pate a pot of good ale,

And by the Rogues oth a Rogue thee install :

To beg on the way, to rob all thou meetes;

To steale from the hedge, both the shirt and the sheets:
And lye with thy wench in the straw till she twang,

Let the Constable, Justice, and Divell go hang.

Ger. So, now come in,

But ever have an eye Sir, to your prisoner.

Hub. He must blinde both mine eyes, if he get from me.
Ger. Go, get some victualls, and some drink, some good drink
For this day wee'le keep holly to good fortune,

Come and be frollick with us.

Hig. Ye are a stanger.

Ber. O I am miserably lost, thus falne
Into my uncles hands from all my hopes,
Can I not thinke away my selfe and dye?
OI am miserably lost; thus fallen

Into my uncles hands, from all my hopes:
No matter now, where thou be false or no,
Goswin, whether thou love an other better;
Or me alone; or where thou keep thy vow,
And word, or that thou come, or stay: for I
To thee from henceforth, must be ever absent,
And thou to me: no more shall we come neere,
