Yes ; red worsted. SIMON. Red worsted ! Perhaps, blood-red ! There's a hint of murder in the colour. SOPHY. Simon, I don't believe any of these tales ; I there's nothing in the house that SIMON. If ghosts are nothing : four female ghosts two of them with brown hair, sisters in hoops, and playing on the harpsichord, go through every room at midnight. SOPHY. Why, where do they come from ? SIMON. From the wine-cellar; for, on digging there eight months ago, last Tuesday, there were found four ske-... letons, drest in white satin, to match. SOPHY. (Aside. ) My poor lady! I I don't believe a word of it! (They'll kill her!) I tell you, Simon, hold your tongue ! You only talk to frighten me (My sweet lady !) Don't speak; don't come near me ! (I'll die for her !) Let me go about my business. SIMON. Not a foot, Sophy not a foot without me. Enter PURPLE. PURP. How now, sirrah? Let the girl pass. Do you know this person, my pretty maid ? SOPHY. Never saw his face before, sir ! SIMON. What? SOPHY. And he will plague me so; pray sir, keep him from me, sir!
