_Fal_. By _Jove_, she has mistook her Man, This 'tis to be a Lover now: A Man's never out of one broil or other; But I have more Wit than _Aminta_ this bout. [_Offers to go_.

_Alcan_. Come back and do your duty e'er you go. [_Pulls him_.

_Fal_. I owe you much, _Alcander_.

_Alcan. Amimta_ said you should revenge her on me.
