Shepherd: |
Go to, then. |
Clown: |
She being none of your flesh and blood, your flesh |
and blood has not offended the king; and so your |
flesh and blood is not to be punished by him. Show |
those things you found about her, those secret |
things, all but what she has with her: this being |
done, let the law go whistle: I warrant you. |
Shepherd: |
I will tell the king all, every word, yea, and his |
son's pranks too; who, I may say, is no honest man, |
neither to his father nor to me, to go about to make |
me the king's brother-in-law. |
Clown: |
Indeed, brother-in-law was the farthest off you |
could have been to him and then your blood had been |
the dearer by I know how much an ounce. |
AUTOLYCUS: |
Shepherd: |
Well, let us to the king: there is that in this |
fardel will make him scratch his beard. |
AUTOLYCUS: |
Clown: |
Pray heartily he be at palace. |
AUTOLYCUS: |
Shepherd: |
To the palace, an it like your worship. |
AUTOLYCUS: |
Your affairs there, what, with whom, the condition |
of that fardel, the place of your dwelling, your |
names, your ages, of what having, breeding, and any |
thing that is fitting to be known, discover. |
Clown: |
We are but plain fellows, sir. |
AUTOLYCUS: |
A lie; you are rough and hairy. Let me have no |
lying: it becomes none but tradesmen, and they |
often give us soldiers the lie: but we pay them for |
it with stamped coin, not stabbing steel; therefore |
they do not give us the lie. |
Clown: |
Your worship had like to have given us one, if you |
had not taken yourself with the manner. |
Shepherd: |
Are you a courtier, an't like you, sir? |
AUTOLYCUS: |
Whether it like me or no, I am a courtier. Seest |
thou not the air of the court in these enfoldings? |
hath not my gait in it the measure of the court? |
receives not thy nose court-odor from me? reflect I |
not on thy baseness court-contempt? Thinkest thou, |
for that I insinuate, or toaze from thee thy |
business, I am therefore no courtier? I am courtier |
cap-a-pe; and one that will either push on or pluck |
back thy business there: whereupon I command thee to |
open thy affair. |
Shepherd: |
My business, sir, is to the king. |
AUTOLYCUS: |
What advocate hast thou to him? |
Shepherd: |
I know not, an't like you. |
Clown: |
Advocate's the court-word for a pheasant: say you |
have none. |
Shepherd: |
None, sir; I have no pheasant, cock nor hen. |
AUTOLYCUS: |
How blessed are we that are not simple men! |
Yet nature might have made me as these are, |
Therefore I will not disdain. |
Clown: |
This cannot be but a great courtier. |
Shepherd: |
His garments are rich, but he wears |
