Is that Thy master's name Hans. Why, 'tis all one. His name Is Muhldenau, and he's the minister Of Mariendorpt. Cour. Is that the only door TO the house? Hans. GO round, you'll find another door, The proper one - O Esther Cour. This way? Hans. Yes. Cour. I'd like to have the quick'ning of thy wits! Esther [without]. What does that coxcomb speaking there so high? Hans. There's Esther coming! You had best be off! Cour. Hang you and her together [goes out. Hans. That is kind. I would not mind to hang along with her I'm sick for love! I'm sure I am I have lost My appetite My stomach was my clock That used to give me note Of eating-tim It never warns me now! A smoking dish Was sure to set my heart a-beating once; N ow be it flesh, or fish, or fowl, or aught, It moves me nothing. I would rather feast A thousand times I would - ou Esther's face! I'm mortal sick for love I used to sleep Scarce touch'd my head my pillow, I was off, And, let me lie, I took my measure on 't Six hours, at least, upon a stretch but now I toss and turn, lie straight, or doubled up, Enfold mine arms, or throw them wide abroad, Rhyme o'er my prayers, or count a hundred out, And then begin again - yet not a. Wink The richer for 't, but rise as I lie down And 'tis true love that ails me - very love Of womankind but one can work my cure 'tis not as one may fancy veal, and yet Put up with mutton! If I get not her, I starve and die How I do love thee, Esther But thou regard'st it not, nor pay'et it heed.
