O disgrace to my person: Zounds boy in your face, you haue seene many boyes with beards, I am sure. Wag. Sirra, hast thou no commings in ? Clow. Yes, and goings out too, you may see sir. 355 Wag. Alas poore slaue, see how pouerty iests in his nakednesse, I know the Villaines out of seruice, and so hungry, that I know he would giue his soule to the deuill for a shoulder of Mutton, tho it were bloud raw. Clo. Not so neither; I had need to haue it well rosted, and good sauce to it, if I pay so deere, I can tell you. 361 Wag.

Why so thou shalt be, whether thou dost it or no : for sirra, if thou dost not presently bind thy selfe to me for seuen yeares, I'le turne all the lice about thee into Familiars, and make them tare thee in peeces. 371 Clow.

Wag. I sirra, I'le teach thee to turne thy selfe to a Dog, or a Cat, or a Mouse, or a Rat, or any thing. 391 Clow. A Dog, or a Cat, or a Mouse, or a Rat? O braue Wagner. Wag.
