Sida 12 - When you approach'd here. CHAM. Which is done, on my virtue. MAR. I shall be converted ; I begin to grow Into a new belief, which saints nor angels Could have won me to have faith in. WOMAN. Sir, my lady! Enter LADY ALLWORTH L. ALL. I come to meet you, and languished till I saw you. This first kiss is for form ; I allow a second To such a friend.

My haste commands me hence ; in one word, therefore, Is it a match P Lov.
