[To them] FOIBLE.

LADY WISHFORT
Come, come, Foible--I had forgot my nephew will be here before dinner--I must make haste.

FOIBLE
Mr. Witwoud and Mr. Petulant are come to dine with your ladyship.

LADY WISHFORT
Oh dear, I can't appear till I am dressed. Dear Marwood, shall I be free with you again, and beg you to entertain em? I'll make all imaginable haste. Dear friend, excuse me.
