[_Exeunt_.


[ACT THE FOURTH.
_Scene_ 1.]

_Enter Accutus and Graccus_.
_Acut_. Nay quicke, _Graccus_, least our houre forestall us, ile in and
deale for your disguise; tarry thou & give mine host a share of our
intent; marry, charge him to keep it as secret as his Garbage. He undoes
our drift [else] and cloathes the foole in sackcloath during his life.
_Gra_. Ile warrant thee ile manage it with as good judgement as a
Constable his charge.
_Acut_. And I mine as a watchman his office.
_Gra_. Better, I hope; well about it.
[_Exit [Acutus]_.
_Enter_[293] _Host. Prentices pass over the stage_.
_Host_. There, there my little lackey boyes, give the word as ye passe,
look about to my guests there; score up at the Bar there; again, agen,
my fine Mercuries; if youle live in the facultie, be rulde by
instructions, you must be eyed like a Serjeant, an eare like a
Belfounder, your conscience a Schoolemaister, a knee like a Courtier,
a foote[294] like a Lackey, and a tongue like a Lawyere.
