Jackson, Helen Hunt, 1830-1885

"A Collection of Old English Plays, Volume 4"


And least that _Beech_ be throwne into the _Thames_,
Let charge be given unto the watermen
That, if they see the body of a man,
Floting in any place about the _Thames_,
That straight they bring it unto _Lambert Hill_,
Where _Beech_ did dwell when he did live in health.
1 _Neigh_. Ile see this charge performd immediatly.
4. Now let us go to Maister _Beeches_ shop, [_Exit_.
To see if that the boy can give us light,
Of those suspitions which this cause doth yeeld.
2. This is the house; call Maister _Loney_ forth.
3. Hoe, Maister _Loney_! doth the boy yet live?
_Enter Loney_.
Or can he utter who hath done him wrong.
_Lo_. He is not dead but hath a dying life,
For neither speech, nor any sense at all,
Abideth in the poore unhappie youth.
4. Here [_sic_] you of anie where his Maister is?
_Lo_. No, would we could; we all, that knew his life,
Suspect him not for any such offence.
4. Bring forth the boy, that we may see his wounds.
[_Bringes him forth in a chaire with a hammer sticking
in his head_.
What say the Surgeons to the youngmans woundes?
_Lo_.
