Compa**, Pleasance.
Com. Stay, Mrs. Pleasance, I must ask you a question:
Ha' you any Sutes in Law?
Ple. I, Mr. Compa**?
Com. Answer me briefly, it is dinner time.
They say you have retain'd brisk Mr. Practise
Here, of your Counsel; and are to be join'd
A Patentee with him.
Ple. In what? who says so?
You are dispos'd to jest.
Com. Ni, I am in eanest.
It is given out i' the House so, I a**ure you;
But keep your right to your self, and not acquaint
A common Lawyer with your Case. if he
Once find the gap; a thousand will leap after.
I'll tell you more anon.
Ple. This Riddle shews
A little like a Love-trick, o'one face,
If I could understand it. I will study it.
