_Mor._ And so you shall; I offer you his daughter for your second. But
since you are so pressing, meet me under my window to-morrow night,
body for body, about this hour; I'll slip down out of my lodging, and
bring my father in my hand.
_Ant._ How, thy father!
_Mor._ I mean, all that's good of him; his pearls and jewels, his
whole contents, his heart and soul; as much as ever I can carry! I'll
leave him his Alcoran, that's revenue enough for him; every page of it
is gold and diamonds. He has the turn of an eye, a demure smile, and a
godly cant, that are worth millions to him. I forgot to tell you, that
I will have a slave prepared at the postern gate, with two horses
ready saddled.--No more, for I fear I may be missed; and think I hear
them calling for me.--If you have constancy and courage--
_Ant._ Never doubt it; and love in abundance, to wander with thee all
the world over.
_Mor._ The value of twelve hundred thousand crowns in a casket!--
_Ant._ A heavy burden, heaven knows! but we must pray for patience to
support it.
_Mor._ Besides a willing titt, that will venture her corps with you.
Come, I know you long to have a parting blow with me; and therefore,
to shew I am in charity-- [_He kisses her._
_Ant._ Once more for pity, that I may keep the flavour upon my lips
till we meet again.
_Mor.
