"The Spanish Curate A Comedy"


'Tis well, Sir,
'Tis very well: the devil a-one I know there.
_Die_.
Take heed of a Snap, Sir, h'as a cozening countenance
do not like his way.
_Lop_.
Let him goe forward.
_Cantabit vacuus_, They that have nothing fear nothing,
All I have to lose, _Diego_, is my learning,
And when he has gotten that, he may put it in a Nut shell.
LETTER READ.
_Signior Lopez, Since my arrival from_ Cordova _to these parts,
I have written divers Letters unto you, but as yet received no
Answer of any_ (Good and very good) _And although so great a
forgetfulness might cause a want in my due correspondence, yet the
desire I have still to serve you must more prevail with me_ (Better
and better: the devil a man know I yet) _and therefore with the
present occasion offered I am willing to crave a continuance of the
favours, which I have heretofore received from you, and do recommend
my Son_ Leandro _the Bearer to you with request that he may
be admitted in that Universitie till such time as I shall arrive at
home; his studies he will make you acquainted withall; This kindness
shall supply the want of your slackness: And so heaven keep you.
