Roch. Nay, I would wait the lady's answer.

Tin. Wait! take an excursion to the country; let
Her answer wait for you!

Roch. Indeed!

Tin. Indeed!
Befits a lord nought like indifference.
Say an estate should fall to you, you'd take it
As it concerned more a stander by
Than you. As you're a lord, be sure you ever
Of that make little other men make much of;
Nor do the thing they do, but the right contrary.
Where the distinction else 'twixt them and you?

[They go out.]


SCENE II.--An Apartment in Master Heartwell's House.


[MASTER WALTER discovered looking through title-deeds and papers.]

Wal. So falls out everything, as I would have it,
Exact in place and time. This lord's advances
Receives she,--as, I augur, in the spleen
Of wounded pride she will,--my course is clear.
She comes--all's well--the tempest rages still.
