If I be a beast, yet I am no horned beast. Is it even so? is the wind in that door? If I were unloaden I would tell you whether I be a horned beast or no. You are always laden either with wine or with ale. Ah spiteful boy, shall I suffer him? Ah cowardly beast, darest thou strike and say never a word? Well, my master shall know of this gear, either he shall redress it, or he shall loose one of us. Tell him the worst thou canst by me. What noise, what a rule is this? Marie sir, he striketh me because I tell him of his swearing. The villain lieth deadly, he reviles me because I bid him make haste. Holla: no more of this. Dalio, do you make in a readiness those Pigeons, stock Doves, and also the breast of Veal: and let your vessel be as clear as glass against I return, that I may tell you which I will have roasted, & which boiled. Crapine, say down that basket and follow me. O that I could tell where to find Pasiphilo, but look where he cometh that can tell me of him. What have you done with Philogano your father? I have left him within, I would feign speak with Pasiphilo, can you tell me where he is? He dined this day with my master, but whether he went from thence I know not, what would you with him? I would have him go tell Damon that Philogano my father is come and ready to make assurance of as much as he will require. Now shall I teach master doctor a school point, he travaileth to none other end but to catch Cornua, and he shall have them, for as old as he is, and as many subtleties as he hath learned in the law, he can not go beyond me one ace. O dear friend, go thy ways seek Pasiphilo, find him out, and conclude somewhat to our contentation. But where shall I find him? At the feasts if there be any, or else in the market with the poulters or the fishmongers. What should he do with them? Marry he watcheth whose Caters buy the best meat. If any buy a fat Capon, a good breast of Veal, fresh Salmon or any such good dish, he followeth to the house, and either with some news, or some stolen jest he will be sure to make himself a jest. In faith, and I will seek there for him. Then must you needs find him, and when you have done I will make you laugh. Whereat? At certain sport I made to day with master doctor. And why not now? Not it asketh further leisure, I pray thee dispatch, and find out Pasiphilo that honest man.
