GOWER and WILLIAMS enter. |
|
| | WILLIAMS |
| |
I warrant it is to knight you, Captain. |
|
| WILLIAMS |
|
I'm sure it is to knight you, Captain. |
|
|
|
FLUELLEN enters, wearing WILLIAMS's glove. |
|
| | FLUELLEN |
| |
God's will and His pleasure, Captain, I beseech you now, |
| |
come apace to the king. There is more good toward you |
| |
peradventure than is in your knowledge to dream of. |
|
| FLUELLEN |
|
As it is God's will and pleasure, Captain, I entreat you to come quickly to the king. There is more good fortune in store for you than you could ever imagine. |
|
| | WILLIAMS |
| 5 |
Sir, know you this glove? |
|
| WILLIAMS |
|
Sir, do you recognize this glove? |
|
| | FLUELLEN |
| |
Know the glove! I know the glove is a glove. |
|
| FLUELLEN |
|
Know the glove! I know the glove is a glove. |
|
| | WILLIAMS |
| |
I know this, and thus I challenge it. (strikes him)
|
|
| WILLIAMS |
|
Well, I recognize this one (indicates the glove FLUELLEN wears in his cap), and I hereby challenge you. (strikes him)
|
|
| | FLUELLEN |
| |
'Sblood, an arrant traitor as any 's in the universal world, or |
| |
in France, or in England! |
|
| FLUELLEN |
|
Good God! As absolute a traitor as any in the whole entire world—or even France or England! |
|
| | GOWER |
| 10 |
How now, sir? You villain! |
|
| GOWER |
|
What is this, you villain! |
|
| | WILLIAMS |
| |
Do you think I'll be forsworn? |
|
| WILLIAMS |
|
Do you think I'd break my oath? |
|
| | FLUELLEN |
| |
Stand away, Captain Gower. I will give treason his payment |
| |
into plows, I warrant you. |
|
| FLUELLEN |
|
Stand aside, Captain Gower. I'll reward treason with blows, I promise you. |
|
| | WILLIAMS |
| |
I am no traitor. |
|
| WILLIAMS |
|
I'm not a traitor. |
|
| | FLUELLEN |
| 15 |
That's a lie in thy throat.—I charge you in his Majesty's |
| |
name, apprehend him. He's a friend of the Duke Alençon's. |
|
| FLUELLEN |
|
An infamous lie! I accuse you in the name of the king. Arrest him: he's a friend of the duke of Alençon's. |
