Mar. A bastard son of Priam's.[2397] 15
Ther. I am a bastard too; I love bastards: I am a bastard[2398]
begot, bastard instructed, bastard in mind, bastard in[2398]
valour, in every thing illegitimate. One bear will not bite
another, and wherefore should one bastard? Take heed,
the quarrel's most ominous to us: if the son of a whore fight[2399] 20
for a whore, he tempts judgement: farewell, bastard. [Exit.[2400]
Mar. The devil take thee, coward! [Exit.[2397][2401]
Scene VIII. Another part of the field.[2402]
Enter Hector.
Hect. Most putrefied core, so fair without,
Thy goodly armour thus hath cost thy life.
Now is my day's work done; I'll take good breath:[2403]
Rest, sword; thou hast thy fill of blood and death.
[Puts off his helmet and hangs his shield behind him.
Enter Achilles and Myrmidons.[2404]
Achil. Look, Hector, how the sun begins to set;[2405] 5
How ugly night comes breathing at his heels:
Even with the vail and darking of the sun,[2406]
To close the day up, Hector's life is done.[2407]
