And unto whom, if you remember it?

Unto a maide; I do not know her name.
3 _neigh_. Nor where she dwels.
_Sal_. No certeinly.

_Sal_. I do not well remember what she wore,
But if I saw her I should know her sure.
3 _neigh_. Go round about to every neighbours house,
And will them shew their maides immediately:
God grant we may finde out the murtherers.
[_Go to one house, and knock at doore, asking_.
Bring forth such maides as are within your house!
1 _housekeeper_. I have but one, ile send her down to you.
3 _neigh_. Is this the maide? [_Come out maide_.
_Salt_. No, sir, this is not she. [_Go to another, &c_.
How many maides do dwell within this house?

3 _neigh_. Whose house is this?
_Lo_. An honest civill mans, cald Maister _Merry_,
Who I dare be sworne, would never do so great a murther;
But you may aske heere to for fashion sake.
