Epilogue’Tis ten to one this play can never please All that are here: some come to take their ease, And sleep an act or two; but those, we fear, We have frighted with our trumpets; so, ’tis clear, They’ll say ’tis naught: others, to hear the city Abused extremely, and to cry ‘That’s witty!’ Which we have not done neither: that, I fear, All the expected good we’re like to hear For this play at this time, is only in The merciful construction of good women; For such a one we show’d ’em: if they smile, And say ’twill do, I know, within a while All the best men are ours; for ’tis ill hap, If they hold when their ladies bid ’em clap.
