I must be cautious of a too light belief. _Enter _Cælia_._ _Cæl._ My Lord, by Accident I've lost a Paper, which troubles me. _Anto._ A Paper, say you? I took up one i'th' Garden, and I Think this is it. _Cæl._ It is, my Lord, and I rejoyce no other Person found it. _Anto._ Why, what is it? _Cæl._ 'Tis the Confession that I told you of. |
