so dete
st the dealing of their
sex,
13561356As that I count a louers
state to be the ba
se
13571357And vilde
st slauerie in the world.
13581358Demarch.
What humors are the
se? heres a
strange alteration.
13591359Zweno. See
Duke William, is this
Blanch or no?
13601360You know her, if you
see her I am
sure.
13611361William. Zweno I was deceiued, yea vtterly deceiued,
13621362Yet this is
shee: this
same is Ladie
Blanch.
13631363And for mine error, here I am content
13641364To do what
soeuer
Zweno shall
set downe.
13661366The man which loued and honoured thee with his heart.
13671367Mariana. When
fir
st I came into your highne
sse court,
13681368And
William often importing me of loue:
13691369I did deui
se to ea
se the griefe your daughter did
su
stain:
13701370Shee
should meete Sir
William masked as I it were.
13711371This put in proofe, did take
so good e
ffe
ct,
13721372As yet it
seemes his grace is not re
solued,
13731373But it was I which he conueid away.
13741374William. May this be true? It cannot be but true.
13751375Was it Ladie
Blanch which I conueid away?
13771377Thus to deale with him which meant to thee nought but faith.
13781378Blanch. Pardon deere father my follies that are pa
st,
13791379Wherein I haue negle
cted my dutie
13801380Which I in reuerence ought to
shew your grace,
13811381For led by loue I thus haue gone a
stray,
13821382And now repent the errors I was in.
13831383Zweno. Stand vp deare daughter, though thy fault de
serues
13841384For to be puni
sht in the extreme
st sort;
13851385Yet loue that couers multitude of
sins
13861386Makes loue in parents winke at childrens faults.
13871387Su
fficeth
Blanch thy father loues thee
so,
13881388Thy follies pa

13891389And here Duke
