That never yet knew faith, have nobler freedoms:

To Peter Zuten these:  bring back my Jewels,
Why are these pieces?

Gos. What news o’th’ fly-boat?

Say. If this Wind hold till midnight, She will be here, and wealthy, ’scap’d fairly.

Gos. How, prithee, Sayler?

Say. Thus Sir, she had fight
Seven hours together, with six Turkish Gallies,
And she fought bravely; but at length was boarded
And overlaid with strength:  when presently
Comes boring up the wind Captain Vannoke,
That valiant Gentleman, you redeem’d from prison;
He knew the Boat, set in, and fought it bravely: 
Beat all the Gallies off, sunk three, redeem’d her,
And as a service to ye sent her home Sir.
