Pem. What? Land your enemy? O, fools and cowards!

... I've given my life for England. Now you'll cast

My heart-dear bargain into Louis' hand

As 'twere a snood slipped from an easy maid.

Fool man! to puff his days out jousting Fate,

Who waits but his bare death to start her mock

Of horrid pleasantries. Then does she make

Dice of the miser's bones, carousal cups

Of the ascetic's skull, a hangman's scoff

Of clerics' prayer-fed sons; and proudest sires,
