Enter Passarello with wine.
Maq. O fool,[531] will ye be ready anon to go with me to the revels? the hall will be so pestered anon. 11
Pass. Ay, as the country is with attorneys.
Mal. What hast thou there, fool?
Pass. Wine; I have learned to drink since I went with my lord ambassador: I’ll drink to the health of Madam Maquerelle.
Mal. Why, thou wast wont to rail upon her.
Pass. Ay; but since I borrowed money of her, I’ll drink to her health now; as gentlemen visit brokers, or as knights send venison to the city, either to take up more money, or to procure longer forbearance. 21
Mal. Give me the bowl. I drink a health to Altofront, our deposed duke.
[Drinks.
Pas. I’ll take it [Drinks]:—so. Now I’ll begin a health to Madam Maquerelle.
