'Tis Eustache de St. Pierre, I think, they call thee—

Whom all the town, our very children, point at,

As the most growling knave in christendom;—

Yea, thou art he.

Eust. The same. The mongrels, here,

Cannot abide rough honesty:—I'm hated.

Smooth talking likes them better:—You, good sir,

Are popular among them.

All. Silence!
