Come on away home, Padna, an' don't mind _them._
They're a bad lot. PADNA The smell o' drink from 'em is awful. MICUS 'Tis disgustin'. I wouldn't be seen in their company. Padna. Come on away. HEAD (_to Sergeant and Constable_) Arrest these min! PADNA Do ye hear that, Micus? MICUS (_opening his coat_) I do, but I won't be insulted be the likes o' them. PADNA (_opening his coat also_) Nayther will I! HEAD (_indignantly_) Why don't ye arrest these min, I say? PADNA and MICUS (_together_) Arrest us, is it? (_They take off their coats, throw them on the ground, and take their stand like pugilists_) Come on, now, and arrest us! |
