FALSTAFF.
Sir, I will be as good as my word. This that you heard was but a colour.
SHALLOW.
A colour that I fear you will die in, Sir John.
FALSTAFF.
Fear no colours. Go with me to dinner. Come, Lieutenant Pistol; come, Bardolph. I shall be sent for soon at night.
Enter the Lord Chief Justice and Prince John, Officers with them.
CHIEF JUSTICE.
Go, carry Sir John Falstaff to the Fleet.
Take all his company along with him.
FALSTAFF.
My lord, my lord,—
CHIEF JUSTICE.
I cannot now speak. I will hear you soon.
Take them away.
PISTOL.
Si fortuna me tormenta, spero me contenta.
[Exeunt all but Prince John and the Lord Chief Justice.]
LANCASTER.
I like this fair proceeding of the King’s.
He hath intent his wonted followers
Shall all be very well provided for,
But all are banish’d till their conversations
Appear more wise and modest to the world.
