2 Cap. Leidenberck. 
One of the Lords, the States, and of great powre too;
I would he were as honest.  This is he
That never did man good, and yet no Suitor
Ever departed discontented from him. 
Hee’ll promise any thing:  I have seene him talke
At the Church dore with his hat of to a Begger
Almost an houre togeather, yet when he left him
He gave him not a doyt.  He do’s profes
To all an outward pitty, but within
The devills more tender:  the great plague upon him! 
Why thinck I of him? he’s no part of that
Must make my peace.

1 Cap.  Why, what course will you take then?

2 Cap.  A Bribe to Barnavelts wiffe, or a kind wench For my yong lord his Son, when he has drunck hard.  There’s no way els to doo’t.

1 Cap.  I have gold good store
You shall not want that; and if I had thought on’t
When I left London, I had fitted you
For a convenient Pagan.

2 Cap.  Why, is there Such store they can be spard?

1 Cap.[145] ... ... ...

2 Cap.  I thanck you, Sir.

[Exeunt.

SCAENA 2.

Enter[146] Barnavelt, Modes-bargen, Leidenberck,
Grotius, and Hogebeets.

Bar.  The States are sitting:  all that I can doe
Ile say in little; and in me theis Lords
Promise as much.  I am of your belief
In every point you hold touching religion,
And openly I will profes myself
Of the Arminian sect.

Gro.  You honour it.

Hog.[147] And all our praires and service.

Bar.  Reverend man
Your loves I am ambitious of.  Already
’Tis knowne I favour you, and that hath drawne
Libells against me; but the stinglesse hate
Of those that wryte them I contempne.

Hog.  They are worthie Of nothing but contempt.

Bar.  That I confes, too;
But yet we must expect much opposition
Ere your opinions be confirmd.  I know
The Prince of Orange a sworne enemie
To your affections:  he has vowd to crosse you,
But I will still stand for you.  My advice is
That, having won the Burgers to your partie,
Perswade them to enroll new Companies
For their defence against the Insolence
Of the old Soldiers garisond at Utrecht. 
Yet practise on them, too, and they may urge this: 
That since they have their pay out of that Province,
Justice requires they should be of their partie: 
All that is don in Utrecht shalbe practisd
In Roterdam and other Townes I name not. 
Farther directions you shall have hereafter,
Till when I leave you.

Gro.  With all zeale and care We will performe this. [Exit.[148]

Leid.  This foundation Is well begun.

Gro.  And may the building prosper.
