Item: She will often praise her liquor.

     LAUNCE

Item: She is too liberal.

     LAUNCE

she shall not, for that I’ll keep shut. Now, of another thing she may, and

Item: She hath more hair than wit, and more faults than hairs, and more
wealth than faults.

last article. Rehearse that [345] once more.
