34 NORTHERN MEMOIRS. 



Theop. I know not, except he's come to sum- 

 mons us home. 



Arn. Pray examine him ; I think it's thrice 

 three months since the last time I saw him. 



Theoph. Shall I call him to us? 



Arn. Prethee do. 



Theoph. Agrippa, from whence comes t thou ? 



Agrippa. From the flourishing fields in Al- 

 bion. 



Theoph. What's the news there, this is an 

 age of inquisition ? 



Arn. So it is ; have you brought us any thing ? 



Agrip. I'm no competent judg of the times, 

 nor of national affairs ; but I'll present you with 

 some books and letters. 



Arn. Have you no scheme of modern trans- 

 actions ? nothing verbal ? 



Agrip. What can be discours'd of the times, 

 and the various projects of men of the times ? 



Arn. Recollect your memory, and refresh 

 yourself; but when the sun advanceth the me- 

 ridian, repair to that solitary grove, where Theo- 

 philus with me, will stay your coming ; be sure 

 you disappoint us not, and bring your narrative 

 of all the proceeds. 



Theoph. I question not he will be very mind- 

 ful. 



Arn. Come then, let us chat a while, and dis- 

 course Rome divided among the Romanists.
