For the which, I will be thy adversary toward Anne Page: said I well? Bygar, 'tis good: well said. Let us wag then. Come at my heels, Iack Rugby. I pray you now, good Master Slenders serving-man, and friend Simple by your name; which way have you looked for Master Caius, that calls himself Doctor of Physic. Marry Sir, the pity-ward, the Parke-ward: every way: old Windsor way, and every way but the Towne-way. I most vehemently desire you, you will also look that way. I will sir. Plesse my soul: how full of Cholers I am, and trembling of mind: I shall be glad if he have deceived me: how melancholies I am? I will knog his Urinals about his knave's costard, when I have good opportunities for the ork:' Plesse my soul: To shallow Ruiers to whose falls: melodious Birds sings Madrigals: There will we make our Beds of Roses: and a thousand fragrant posies. To shallow:' Mercy on me, I have a great dispositions to cry. Melodious birds sing Madrigals:— When as I sat in Pabilon: and a thousand vagram Posies. To shallow, etc. Yonder he is coming, this way, Sir Hugh. he's welcome: To shallow Rivers, to whose false: Heaven prosper the right: what weapons is he? No weapons, Sir: there comes my Master, Mr. Shallow, and another Gentleman; from Frogmore, over the stile, this way. Pray you give me my gown, or else keep it in your arms. How now Master Parson? good morrow good Sir Hugh: keep a Gamester from the dice, and a good Student from his book, and it is wonderful. Ah sweet Anne Page. 'Saue you, good Sir Hugh. Plesse you from his mercy-sake, all of you. What? the Sword, and the Word? Do you study them both, Mr. Parson? And youthful still, in your doublet and hose, this raw-rumaticke day? There is reasons, and causes for it. We are come to you, to do a good office, Mr. Parson. Fery-well: what is it? Yonder is a most reverend Gentleman; who (belike) having received wrong by some person, is at most odds with his own gravity and patience, that ever you saw. I have lived fourscore years, and upward: I never heard a man of his place, gravity, and learning, so wide of his own respect. What is he? I think you know him: Mr. Doctor Caius the renowned French Physician. Got's-will, and his passion of my heart: I had as lief you would tell me of a mess of porridge. Why? He has no more knowledge in Hibocrates and Galen, and he is a knave besides: a cowardly knave, as you would desires to be acquainted withal. I warrant you, he's the man should fight with him. O sweet Anne Page. It appears so by his weapons: keep them asunder: here comes Doctor Caius. Nay good Mr. Parson, keep in your weapon. So do you, good Mr. Doctor.
