<N 1> <Z Prologue.>
<N 2> Aptnesse for mirth to all, this instant night
<N 3> Thalia hath prepar'd for your delight,
<N 4> Her choice and curious Viands, in each part,
<N 5> Season'd with rarities of wit, and Art;
<N 6> Nor feare I to be tax'd for a vaine boast,
<N 7> My promise will finde credit with the most,
<N 8> When they know Ingenuous Fletcher made it, hee
<N 9> Being in himselfe a perfect Comedie.
<N 10> And some sit here, I doubt not, dare averre,
<N 11> Living he made that house a Theater
<N 12> Which he pleas'd to frequent; and thus much we
<N 13> Could not . . .
