Luke. I'll shew some mercy ; which is, that I will not Torture you with false hopes, but make you know What you shall trust to. Your ships to my use Are seized on. I have got into my hands Your bargain from the sailor, 'twas a good onef For such a petty sum. I will likewise take The extremity of your mortgage, and the forfeit Of your several bonds ; the use and principal Shall not serve. Think of the basket, wretches, And a coal-sack for a winding-sheet. 448 THE CITY MADAM. For. Broker! Hoyst. ...Jew ! For. Imposter ! Hoyst. Cut-throat ! For. Hypocrite ! Luke.
