Of what! why, that you're a Cuckold; Sir, a Cuckold, if you'll ha't. Sir Cau. Cuckold! Sir, do ye know what ye say? Sir Feeb. What I say? Sir Cau. Ay, what you say, can you make this out? Sir Feeb. I make it out! Sir Cau. Ay, Sir if you say it, and cannot make it out, you're a Sir Feeb. What am I, Sir? What am I? Sir Cau.
Then he returned to his lodging, and presently the notary who had drawn up the marriage contract came to him and saluted him, saying, "God give thee long life! May thy marriage be blessed! Thou hast doubtless passed the night clipping and kissing and dalliance from dusk to dawn." "May God curse thee for a liar, thousandfold cuckold that thou art!" replied my brother.
Hold, my Honour's concerned. Fran. Not at all, Father mine, she's my Wife, my Lumber now, and, I hope, I may dispose of my Goods and Chattels if he takes her we are upon equal terms, for he makes himself my Cuckold, as he has already made me his; for, if my memory fail me not, we did once upon a time consummate, as my Daughter has it. Enter Guiliom in his own dress; crying Chimney-Sweep. Guil.
Hence this, according to these three drawn lots, will be your future destiny, I clearly see it, you will be a cuckold, you will be beaten, and you will be robbed. Nay, it is quite otherwise, quoth Panurge; for it is certain that this verse presageth that she will love me with a perfect liking.
Hence doth it follow by a consequence as clear as the sunbeams that I will never be in the danger of being made a cuckold, for the defect hereof is Causa sine qua non; yea, the sole cause, as many think, of making husbands cuckolds. What makes poor scoundrel rogues to beg, I pray you? Is it not because they have not enough at home wherewith to fill their bellies and their pokes?
The Cornhill house was once kept by a man named Dun, and the story goes that one day when he was in the room with some witty gallants, one of them, who had been too familiar with the host's wife, exclaimed, "I'll lay five pounds there's a cuckold in this company." To which another immediately rejoined, "Tis Dun!" Around the other Mermaid that in Cheapside much controversy has raged.
It is to pave the stomach, to practice the chemistry of nature, to register the various dishes, to regale your tripes, to dig your grave with your teeth, play with the sword of Cain, to inter sauces, to support a cuckold. But more philosophically it is to make ordure with one's teeth. Now, do you understand? How many words does it require to burst open the lid of your understanding?

Why, seeing that he is uglier than I am?" "Oh! no," she exclaimed. "You may say what you like, but do not say that he is uglier than you are."
He no sooner felt the wind of the publican's fist that whistled round his ears, than he fell flat upon the earth at full length, and the cudgel flew from his unclasping hand; when Tunley, springing like a tiger on his back, rained such a shower of blows upon his carcase, that he imagined himself under the discipline of ten pairs of fists at least; yet the imaginary cuckold, not satisfied with annoying the priest in this manner, laid hold of one of his ears with his teeth, and bit so unmercifully, that the curate was found almost entranced with pain by two labourers, at whose approach the assailant retreated unperceived.
Who knows which of us will be alive tomorrow morning? Who knows what Sextus is doing? If Sextus has heard of this crisis he will seize the moment and either arouse the praetorian guard to mutiny or else reach Commodus himself and slay him with his own hand! Sextus is a man! Are you no more than Flavia Titiana's cuckold and Cornificia's plaything?" "I am a Roman," Pertinax retorted angrily.
