dolph; I could tear her. I'll be revenged of

her.

Page. Pray thee, go down.

Pist. I'll see her damned first; to Pluto's

damned lake, by this hand, to the infernal deep,

with Erebus and tortures vile also. Hold hook

and line, say I. Down, down, dogs! down fai-

tors. Have we not Hiren here?

Host. Good Captain Peesel, be quiet; 'tis

very late, i' faith. I beseek you now, aggravate

your choler.

Pist. These be good humours, indeed! Shall pack-horses,

And hollow pamper'd jades of Asia,

Which cannot go but thirty mile a day,

Compare with Cæsars, and with Cannibals,

And Trojan Greeks? nay, rather damn them with

King Cerberus; and let the welkin roar.

Shall we fall foul for toys?

Host. By my troth, captain, these are very

bitter words.

Bard. Be gone, good ancient: this will grow

to a brawl anon.

Pist. Die men like dogs! give crowns like

pins! Have we not Hiren here?

Host. O' my word, captain, there's none

such here. What the good-year! do you think

I would deny her? for God's sake! be quiet.

Pist. Then feed, and be fat, my fair Calipolis.

Come, give's some sack.

Si fortune me tormente, sperato me contento.

Fear we broadsides? no, let the fiend give fire:
