M. Merry. And I reported it.
C. Custance. Nay, I must speak it again.
R. Roister. No, no, he told it all.
M. Merry. Was I not meetly plain?
R. Roister. Yes.
M. Merry. But I would not tell all; for, faith, if I had,
With you, dame Custance, ere this hour it had been bad;
And not without cause: for this goodly personage
Meant no less than to join with you in marriage.
