Do you know what you say?
|
MARIA.
|
La you, an you speak ill of the devil, how he takes it at
|
heart! Pray God he be not bewitched.
|
FABIAN.
|
Carry his water to the wise woman.
|
MARIA.
|
Marry, and it shall be done to-morrow morning, if I live. My
|
lady would not lose him for more than I'll say.
|
MALVOLIO.
|
How now, mistress!
|
MARIA.
|
O lord!
|
SIR TOBY.
|
Pr'ythee hold thy peace; this is not the way. Do you not
|
see you move him? let me alone with him.
|
FABIAN.
|
No way but gentleness; gently, gently: the fiend is rough,
|
and will not be roughly used.
|
SIR TOBY.
|
Why, how now, my bawcock? how dost thou, chuck.
|
MALVOLIO.
|
Sir?
|
SIR TOBY.
|
Ay, Biddy, come with me. What, man! 'tis not for gravity
|
to play at cherry-pit with Satan. Hang him, foul collier!
|
MARIA.
|
Get him to say his prayers; good Sir Toby, get him to pray.
|
MALVOLIO.
|
My prayers, minx?
|
MARIA.
|
No, I warrant you, he will not hear of godliness.
|
MALVOLIO.
|
Go, hang yourselves all! you are idle shallow things: I
|
am not of your element; you shall know more hereafter.
|
[Exit.]
|
SIR TOBY.
|
Is't possible?
|
FABIAN.
|
If this were played upon a stage now, I could condemn it as
|
an improbable fiction.
|
SIR TOBY.
|
His very genius hath taken the infection of the device, man.
|
MARIA.
|
Nay, pursue him now; lest the device take air and taint.
|
FABIAN.
|
Why, we shall make him mad indeed.
|
MARIA.
|
The house will be the quieter.
|
SIR TOBY.
|
Come, we'll have him in a dark room and bound. My niece
|
is already in the belief that he's mad; we may carry it thus, for
|
our pleasure and his penance, till our very pastime, tired out of
|
breath, prompt us to have mercy on him: at which time we will
|
bring the device to the bar, and crown thee for a finder of
|
madmen. But see, but see.
|
[Enter SIR ANDREW AGUE-CHEEK.]
|
FABIAN.
|
More matter for a May morning.
|
SIR ANDREW.
|
Here's the challenge, read it; I warrant there's vinegar and
|
pepper in't.
|
FABIAN.
|
Is't so saucy?
|
SIR ANDREW.
|
Ay, is't, I warrant him; do but read.
|
SIR TOBY.
|
Give me. [Reads.] 'Youth, whatsoever thou art, thou art but a
|
scurvy fellow.'
|
FABIAN.
|
Good and valiant.
