Beaumont & Fletcher's Works (1 of 10) - the Custom of the Country
Enter Servant.
Then sit and sigh.
Zen. My Autumn is not far off.
Leo. Have you told your Lady?
Ser. Yes Sir, I have told her Both of your noble service, and your present, Which she accepts.
Leo. I should be blest to see her.
Ser. That now you cannot doe: she keeps the Chamber
Not well dispos'd; and has denied all visits,
The maid I have in charge to receive from ye,
So please you render her.
Leo. With all my service, But fain I would have seen.
Ser. 'Tis but your patience; No doubt she cannot but remember nobly.
Leo. These three years I have lov'd this scornfull Lady,
And follow'd her with all the truth of service,
In all which time, but twice she has honour'd me
With sight of her blest beauty: when you please Sir,
You may receive your charge, and tell your Lady;
A Gentleman whose life is only dedicated
To her commands, kisses her beauteous hands;
And Faire-one, now your help, you may remember
The honest courtesies, since you are mine,
I ever did your modestie: you shall be near her,
And if sometimes you name my service to her,
And tell her with what nobleness I love her,
'Twill be a gratitude I shall remember.
Zen. What in my poor power lyes, so it be honest.
Leo. I ask no more.
Ser. You must along with me (Fair.)
Leo. And so I leave you two: but a fortune Too happy for my fate: you shall enjoy her.
Scena Secunda.
Enter Zabulon and Servants.
Zab. Be quick, be quick, out with the banquet there, These scents are dull; cast richer on, and fuller; Scent every place, where have you plac'd the musick?
Ser. Here they stand ready Sir.
Zab. 'Tis well, be sure The wines be lusty, high, and full of Spirit, And Amber'd all.
Ser. They are.
