KENT enters in disguise. OSWALD enters from elsewhere. |
|
| | OSWALD |
| |
Good dawning to thee, friend. Art of this house? |
|
| OSWALD |
|
Good morning to you, friend. Do you work in this house? |
|
|
|
| | OSWALD |
| |
Where may we set our horses? |
|
| OSWALD |
|
Where should we stable our horses? |

| 5 |
Prithee, if thou lovest me, tell me. |
|
| OSWALD |
|
Please, sir, be kind to me and tell me. |
|
|
| KENT |
|
I won't be kind to you. |
|
| | OSWALD |
| |
Why, then, I care not for thee. |
|
| OSWALD |
|
In that case, I don't much care for you either. |
|
| | KENT |
| |
If I had thee in Lipsbury pinfold, I would make thee care |
| |
for me. |
|
| KENT |
|
If I could get my hands on you, I'd make you care. |
|
| | OSWALD |
| 10 |
Why dost thou use me thus? I know thee not. |
|
| OSWALD |
|
Why are you talking to me like this? I don't even know you. |
|
| | KENT |
| |
Fellow, I know thee. |
|
|
| | OSWALD |
| |
What dost thou know me for? |
|
|
| | KENT |
| |
A knave, a rascal, an eater of broken meats; a base, proud, |
| |
shallow, beggarly, three-suited, hundred-pound, filthy, |
| 15 |
worsted-stocking knave; a lily-livered, action-taking knave; |
| |
a whoreson, glass-gazing, super-serviceable finical rogue; |
| |
one-trunk-inheriting slave; one that wouldst be a bawd in |
| |
way of good service; and art nothing but the composition of |
| |
a knave, beggar, coward, pander, and the son and heir of a |
| 20 |
mongrel bitch; one whom I will beat into clamorous whining |
| |
if thou deniest the least syllable of thy addition. |
|
| KENT |
|
You're a lowlife, a rascal who eats leftover scraps. You're an ignoble, arrogant, shallow, vulgar, pretentious, conceited, filthy third-rate servant who thinks he's something special. You're a cowardly lawyer-loving bastard; a vain, brown-nosing, prissy scoundrel who'd pimp himself out to advance his career; a bag lady. You're nothing but a lowlife, a beggar, a coward, and a pimp, the son and heir of a mutt bitch. I'll beat you until you whine and cry if you deny the least bit of this. |
