58 EOMEO AND JULIET. 

Mercut'io. Farewell, ancient lady; farewell, [singing'] 
'lady, lady, lady.' \_Exeunt Mercut'io and Benrolh. 

JS^iirse. jSIarry, farewell 1 — I pray you, sir, what saucy 
merchant was this, that was so full of his ropery ? 

Borneo. A gentleman, nurse, that loves to hear himself 
talk, and Avill speak more in a minute than he will stand 
to in a month. 

Xurse. An a' speak anything against me, I"ll take him 
down, an a' were lustier than he is, and twenty such 
Jacks ; and if I cannot, I'll find those that shall. Scurvy 
knave ! I am none of his llirt-gills ; I am none of his 
skains-mates. — And thou must stand by too, and suffer 
every knave to use me at his pleasure ? 

Peter. I saw no man use you at his pleasure ; if I 
had, my weapon should quickly have been' out, I warrant 
you. I dare draw as soon as another man, if I see occa- 
sion in a good quarrel, and the law on my side. 

Nurse. Now, afore God, I am so vexed, that every 
part about me quivers. Scurvy knave ! — Pray you, sir, 
a word ; and as I told you, my young lady bade me 
inquire you out ; what she bade me say, I Avill keep to 
myself : but first let me tell ye, if ye should lead her in 
a fool's paradise, as they say, it were a very gross kind 
of behavior, as they say ; for the gentlewoman is young, 
and, therefore, if you should deal double with her. truly 
it were an ill thing to be offered to any gentlewoman, 
and very weak dealing.
