If I own you any thing, i'll pay you in cudgels, You shallbe a woodmonger, And by cudgels, Good bye you, Ancient Pistol, God bless you, And heal your broken pate. Ancient Pistol, if you see Leeks an other time. Mock at them, that is all: Good bye you. All hell shall stir for this. Doth Fortune play the huswye with me now? Is honour cudgeled from my warlike lines? Well France farewell, news have I certainly That Doll is sick. One mally die of France, The wars affordeth nought, home will I trug. Bawd will I turn, and use the sleight of hand: To England will I steal, And there I'll steal. And patches will I get unto these scars, And swear I got them in the Gallia wars. Peace to this meeting, wherefore we are met. And to our brother France, Fair time of day. Fair health unto our lovely cousin Katherine. And as a branch, and member of this stock: We do salute you Duke of Burgundy. Brother of England, right joyous are we to behold Your face, so are we Princes English every one. With pardon unto both your mightiness. Let it not displease you, if I demand What rub or bar hath thus far hindered you, To keep you from the gentle speech of peace? If Duke of Burgundy, you would have peace, You must buy that peace, According as we have drawn our articles. We have but with a cursenary eye, Oreviewd them: pleaseth your Grace, To let some of your Counsel sit with us, We shall return our peremptory answer. Go Lords, and sit with them, And bring us answer back. Yet leave our cousin Katherine here behind. Withal our hearts. Now Kate, you have a blunt wooer here Left with you. If I could win thee at leapfrog, Or with vaulting with my armour on my back, Into my saddle, Without brag be it spoken, I'd make compare with any. But leaving that Kate, If thou takest me now, Thou shalt have me at the worst: And in wearing, thou shalt have me better and better, Thou shalt have a face that is not worth sun-burning. But dost thou think, that thou and I, Between Saint Denis, And Saint George, shall get a boy, That shall go to Constantinople, And take the great Turk by the beard, ha Kate? Is it possible dat me shall Love de enemy de France. No Kate, 'tis unpossible You should love the enemy of France: For Kate, I love France so well, That I'll not leave a Village, I'll have it all mine: then Kate, When France is mine, And I am yours, Then France is yours, And you are mine. I cannot tell what is dat. No Kate, Why I'll tell it you in French, Which will hang upon my tongue, like a bride On her new married Husband. Let me see, Saint Dennis be my speed. Quan France et mon. Dat is, when France is yours. Et vous ettes amoy. And I am to you.
