Why, you drab monger, cannot the secrets of all the wenches
in a shire serve your turn, but you must come hither with a citation? with a pox! I'll cite you. [He has then done.] A cup of sack for the Sumner. BUTLER. Here, sir, here. HARPOOLE. Here, slave, I drink to thee. SUMNER. I thank you, sir. HARPOOLE. Now if thou findst thy stomach well--because thou shalt see my Lord keep's meat in's house--if thou wilt go in, thou shalt have a piece of beef to the break fast. SUMNER. No, I am very well, good Master serving-man, I thank you; very well sir. HARPOOLE. I am glad on't. Then be walking towards Rochester to keep your stomach warm; and Sumner, if I may know you disturb a good wench within this Diocese; if I do not make thee eat her petticoat, if there were four yards of Kentish cloth in't, I am a villain. |
