<Q CESARIO.>
INTERPRET NOT CLARISSA, MY TRUE ZEALE
IN GIVING YOU COUNCELL, TO TRANSCEND THE BOUNDS
THAT SHOULD CONFINE A BROTHER; TIS YOUR HONOUR,
AND PEACE OF MIND (WHICH, HONOUR L O!ST, WILL LEAVE YOU)
I LABOUR TO PRESERVE, AND THOUGH YOU YET ARE
PURE AND UNTAINTED, AND RESOLVE TO BE SO:
HAVING A FATHERS EYE, AND MOTHERS CARE
IN ALL YOUR WAYES TO KEEP YOU FAIRE, AND UPRIGHT...
IN WHICH RESPECTS MY BEST ADVICES MUST
APPEARE SUPERFLOUS; YET SINCE LOVE DEERE SISTER
WILL SOMETIMES TENDER THINGS UNNECESSARY,
MISCONSTER NOT MY PURPOSE.
<Q CLARIS.> SIR, I DARE NOT:
BUT STILL RECEIVE IT AS A LARGE ADDITION,
TO THE MUCH THAT I ALREADY STAND INGAGD FOR,
YET PARDON ME, THOUGH I PROFESSE UPON
A TRUE EXAMINATION OF MY SELFE,
EVEN TO MY PRIVATE THOUGHTS, I CANNOT FINDE
(HAVING SUCH STRONG SUPPORTERS TO UPHOLD ME)
ON WHAT SLIGHT GROUND THE LEAST DOUBT CAN BE RAISD
TO R . . .
