M. Merry. Scribbler, ko you? Indeed, he is worthy no less.
I will call him to you, and ye bid me, doubtless.
R. Roister. Yes, for although he had as many lives
As a thousand widows and a thousand wives,
As a thousand lions and a thousand rats,
A thousand wolves and a thousand cats,
A thousand bulls and a thousand calves,
And a thousand legions divided in halves,
He shall never 'scape death on my sword's point,
Though I should be torn therefore joint by joint.
