remain; but when you depart from me, sorrow abides
and happiness takes his leave.

her with crying; for the ewe that will not hear her

I leave an arrant knave with your worship; which I
beseech your worship to correct yourself, for the
example of others. God keep your worship! I wish
your worship well; God restore you to health! I
humbly give you leave to depart; and if a merry
meeting may be wished, God prohibit it! Come, neighbour.

will depart unkissed.
