BEADLES
enter, dragging DOLL TEARSHEET and MISTRESS QUICKLY. |
|
| | MISTRESS QUICKLY |
| |
No, thou arrant knave. I would to God that I might die, that |
| |
I might have thee hanged. Thou hast drawn my shoulder out |
| |
of joint. |
|
| MISTRESS QUICKLY |
|
No, you horrible rogue! I wish to God I were dead, so I could have you hanged. You dislocated my shoulder! |
|
| | FIRST BEADLE |
| |
The Constables have delivered her over to me, and she shall |
| 5 |
have whipping cheer enough, I warrant her. There hath been |
| |
a man or two lately killed about her. |
|
| FIRST BEADLE |
|
The street cops handed her over to me, and she'll be whipped through and through, I promise. She's been involved in a couple of murders. |
|
| | DOLL TEARSHEET |
| |
Nut-hook, nut-hook, you lie! Come on, I 'll tell thee what, |
| |
thou damned tripe-visaged rascal: an the child I now go with |
| |
do miscarry, thou wert better thou hadst struck thy mother, |
| 10 |
thou paper-faced villain. |
|
| DOLL TEARSHEET |
|
Pig, Pig! You lie! Come on! I'll tell you what, you damned flabby-faced moron: if I have a miscarriage now, you'll wish you'd hit your own mother, you pasty-faced villain! |
|
| | MISTRESS QUICKLY |
| |
O the Lord, that Sir John were come! I would make this a |
| |
bloody day to somebody. But I pray God the fruit of her |
| |
womb might miscarry. |
|
| MISTRESS QUICKLY |
|
Oh God, I wish Sir John would come! He'd make somebody bleed for this. I pray to God that she has a miscarriage! |
|
| | FIRST BEADLE |
| |
If it do, you shall have a dozen of cushions again; you have |
| 15 |
but eleven now. Come, I charge you both go with me, for the |
| |
man is dead that you and Pistol beat amongst you. |
|
| FIRST BEADLE |
|
Well, if she does, you'll have twelve cushions on your couch again. You have only eleven now, since she's wearing one of them under her dress. I order both of you to come with me: the man that you two and Pistol beat up is dead. |
|
| | DOLL TEARSHEET |
| |
I'll tell you what, you thin man in a censer, I will have you |
| |
as soundly swinged for this, you bluebottle rogue, you filthy |
| |
famished correctioner. If you be not swinged, I'll forswear |
| 20 |
half-kirtles. |
|
| DOLL TEARSHEET |
|
I'll tell you what, you stick-figure; I'll have you beaten soundly for this. You blue-coated rogue, you filthy, starving correctioner! If you aren't walloped for this, I'll swear off skirts. |
|
| | FIRST BEADLE |
| |
Come, come, you she knight-errant, come. |
|
| FIRST BEADLE |
|
Come on, come on, you little night sinner, come on. |
