With this, casting an eye upon Panurge's right hand in all the parts thereof, he said, This rugged draught which I see here, just under the mount of Jove, was never yet but in the hand of a cuckold.

But that was not the case; it was sheer fright, nothing more, for he was still ignorant whether he was a cuckold or no.
