[To them] SCANDAL, MRS FORESIGHT, and NURSE.
FORE. Did he so? I'll dispatch him for't presently. Rogue! O nurse, come hither.
NURSE. What is your worship's pleasure?
FORE. Here, take your young mistress and lock her up presently, till farther orders from me. Not a word, Hussy; do what I bid you, no reply, away. And bid Robin make ready to give an account of his plate and linen, d'ye hear: begone when I bid you.
MRS FORE. What's the matter, husband?
FORE. 'Tis not convenient to tell you now. Mr Scandal, heav'n keep us all in our senses--I fear there is a contagious frenzy abroad.
How does Valentine?
SCAN. Oh, I hope he will do well again. I have a message from him to your niece Angelica.
FORE. I think she has not returned since she went abroad with Sir Sampson. Nurse, why are you not gone?
