_Ang_. Who, I! not for the world.
_Hip_. Neither of us; for, though I would not lodge with you
Myself, I never can endure he should.
_Ang_. Why then, to end the difference, if you please.
I and that lady will be bed-fellows.
_Hip_. No, she and I will lodge together rather.
_Serv_. You are sweet youths indeed; not for the world
You would not lodge with men! none but the lady
Would serve your turn.
_Aug_. Alas, I had forgot I am a boy;
I am so lately one. [_Aside_.
_Serv_. Well, well; all shall be lodged apart.
_Gons_. to Hip. I did not think you harboured wanton
thoughts;
So young, so bad?
_Hip_. I can make no defence,
But must be shamed by my own innocence. [_Exeunt_.
ACT II.
SCENE I.--_A Chamber_.
[_Enter_ GONSALVO, HIPPOLITO, _and_ ANGELINA _as_ AMIDEO _at a
distance_.
_Gon_. Hippolito, what is this pretty youth,
That follows us?
_Hip_. I know not much of him:
Handsome you see, and of graceful fashion;
Of noble blood, he says, and I believe him;
But in some deep distress; he'll tell no more,
And I could cry for that, which he has told.
So much I pity him.
_Gon_. My pretty youth,
Would I could do thee any service.
_Ang_. Sir,
The greatest you can do me, is accepting mine.
_Hip_. How's this? methinks already I begin
To hate this boy, whom but even now I moaned,
You serve my master? Do you think I cannot
Perform all duties of a servant better,
And with more care, than you?
_Ang_.
