_Host_. Farwel, my good bullies, mine Host has sed and the mouse is dun.
[_Exeunt_.


[ACT THE FIFTH.
_Scene_ 1.]

_Enter the dumb shew of the marriage, Lentulus, Tully, and the rest.
Enter Hostis in Getticaes apparel, Getic. in hers, & Mistris Dama_.
_Hostis_. Come, Gossip, by my troth, I cannot keepe my hood in frame.
_Cittie wife_. Let me helpe ye, woman.
_Get_. Sir, we shall be troublesome to ye.
_Gra_. Oh urge not that I pray ye.
_Get_. I pray ye what shewe will be heere to night? I have seen the
_Babones_ already, the _Cittie of new Ninivie_[320] and _Julius Caesar_,
acted by the Mammets.
_Grac_. Oh, gentlewoman, those are showes for those places they are used
in; marry, heere you must expect some rare device, as _Diana_ bathing
herself, being discovered or occulated by _Acteon_, he was tranfigured
to a hart, & werried to death with his own dogs.
_Cit. W_. Thats prettie in good truth; & must _Diana_, be naked?
_Gra_. Oh of necessitie, if it be that show.
