SECOND FRIEND

They are honourable; [30]
How good they’ll prove I know not.

FIRST FRIEND
’Twill be known.

Enter Wooer.

WOOER
Alas, sir, where’s your daughter?

GAOLER
Why do you ask?

WOOER

O sir, when did you see her?

SECOND FRIEND

How he looks!

GAOLER
This morning.

WOOER
Was she well? Was she in health, sir?
When did she sleep?

FIRST FRIEND
These are strange questions. [35]

GAOLER

I do not think she was very well, for now
You make me mind her, but this very day
I asked her questions, and she answered me
So far from what she was, so childishly,
So sillily, as if she were a fool, [40]
