[pg 19]

     ACT THE SECOND. 

 SCENE I. 

 A Chamber. 

 Enter Fabian and Jaqueline. 

Fabian

Jaqueline

 Fab. No, no, it cannot be. My lord's commands

   Were absolute, that none should visit him.

 Jaq. What need he know it?

 Fab. But perchance he should?

   The study of my life has been his pleasure;

   Nor will I risk his favour, to indulge

   Such unavailing curiosity.

 Jaq. Call it not so; I have kind counsel for him;

   Which, if he follow it, may serve to speed

   The hour of his deliverance, and appease

   The unjustly-anger'd count.
