[ She runs after Flora_, who still is too quick for her._

Flor. Nay, softly, Nurse; so, so; ay, there!

Nurse. Where where?  I see it now, It’s strangely pale! 
O, do not fright me so; it’s gone again. 
And now I shall have time to follow you;
Nay, now I’le tear thy Eyes out.

    [ As Flora_ runs away, she falls, Nurse gets upon her._

Flor. Oh, Nurse, Nurse! have mercy on me, Do not scratch me so.

Nurse. I’le be thy Death, there’s nothing shall preserve you. 
Ah ——­ are you there again!  The Devil, the Devil.
    [Exit.

Flor. ’Twas well for me her madness work’t again,
And made her take a whim to run away,
She would have kill’d me else, do what I could;
I’le stay no longer, lest she come again. 
I’d not be in her fingers as I was
For all I’m worth.
    [Exit.

  Enter Captain, Watch, and Servant.

Capt. When I consider every Circumstance
Of what you tell, and what I know my self,
I must conclude, I ought not to defer
To search Antonio’s House:  if he’s from home,
As you pretend he is; It makes me think
There is some strange Intrigue design’d by him. 
For why should he turn back, as you relate,
And then obscure himself in such a House? 
Besides, he told me, he was strait for Home,
And yet it seems was not, as you say.

Serv. It’s truth, upon my Life, he was not there At past the hour of Nine.

Watch. Who comes there!

    [Enter the little Devil, and runs and skulkes.

Captain, the Devil, the Devil! 
See where he stands?

Capt. O’ my Conscience!  The Witches little Familiar again!  If you’re afraid, let me come, I’m us’d to These sort of Devils!  Come, come, uncase,

    [It sputters like a Cat, Captain to him.

Uncase, young Gamester, what slippery pranck
Are you about now?  Don’t you remember your
Last escape, Sirrah?

Devil. Pray Master don’t whip me, I’le tell all.

Capt. Out with it then; where’s the Old Witch, your Mistress?

Devil. Alas, Captain, she was kill’d to Night when You brought in the Watch to search our House.

Capt. Kill’d, by whom?

Devil. I know not that, but we were putting a cheat
Upon a Lord there, by contrivance of his Man,
And when you knockt, we ran to our lurking holes
To hide us, but when the Coast was clear, we came
Out, and seeking for my Mistress, found her dead in one
Of the holes thrust through her Body with a Dagger in
Three places.

Capt. What cheat was that you put upon the Lord?

Dev. We Acted like Devils, and in a Song made him Believe his Wife did Cuckold him.

Capt. This was Antonio, whom I met there, Sir.
