Eug.  What meanes he by this, tro? your Lord is very dancitive me thinkes.

Mom.  I, and I could tell you a thing would make your Ladyship very dancitive, or else it were very dunsative yfaith.  O how the skipping of this Christmas blocke of ours moves the block-head heart of a woman and indeed any thing that pleaseth the foolish eye which presently runnes with a lying tale of Excellence to the minde.

Eug.  But I pray tell me my Lord could you tell me of a thing would make me dance say you?

Mom.  Well, farewell sweet Neece, I must needs take my leave in earnest.

Eu.  Lord blesse us, heres such a stir with your farewels.

Mom.  I will see you againe within these two or three dayes a my word Neece.

Eug.  Cods pretious, two or three dayes? why this Lord is in a maruallous strange humor.  Sit downe, sweet Vnkle; yfaith I have to talke with you about greate matters.

Mom.  Say then deere Neece, be short utter your minde quickly now.

Eug.  But I pray tell me first, what’s that would make me daunce yfaith?

Mom.  Daunce, what daunce? hetherto your dauncers legges bow for-sooth, and Caper, and jerke, and Firke, and dandle the body above them, as it were their great childe; though the speciall jerker be above this place I hope here lies that shud fetch a perfect woman over the Coles yfaith.

Eug.  Nay good Vnkle say what’s the thing you could tell me of?

Mom.  No matter, no matter:  But let me see a passing prosperous fore-head of an exceeding happy distance betwixt the eye browes; a cleere lightning eye; a temperate, and fresh bloud in both the cheekes:  excellent markes, most excellent markes of good fortune.

Eug.  Why, how now Vnkle did you never see me before?

Mom.  Yes Neece; but the state of these things at this instant must be specially observed, and these outward signes being now in this cleere elevation, show your untroubled minde is in an excellent power, to preferre them to act forth then a little, deere Neece.

Eug.  This is excellent.

Mom.  The Crises here are excellent good; The proportion of the chin good; the little aptness of it to sticke out good; and the wart above it most exceeding good.  Never trust me, if all things be not answerable to the prediction of a most Divine fortune towards her; now if she have the grace to apprehend it in the nicke; thers all.

Eug.  Well my Lord, since you will not tell me your secret, ile keepe another from you; with whose discovery, you may much pleasure me, and whose concealement may hurt my estate.  And if you be no kinder then to see me so indangered; ile be very patient of it, I assure you.
