Thank you for your courteous offer of binding the lad apprentice to a tradesman. I suppose you would make a tailor of him would you? I had rather see him hang'd, d'ye see. Come along, Rory, I perceive how the land lies, my boy let's tack about, i'faith while I have a shilling you shan't want a tester.
"Ah! that is what Pelisson is doing, then? I'faith, my dear Moliere, you are indeed often right." "When?" "When you call me absent-minded. It is a monstrous defect; I will cure myself of it, and do your prologue for you." "But inasmuch as Pelisson is about it! "Ah, true, miserable rascal that I am! Loret was indeed right in saying I was a poor creature." "It was not Loret who said so, my friend."
On her asking him to tell her what he had been writing, he repeated the verses which are found in the Heautontimoroumenos: Satis pol proterve me Syri promessa Heauton. IV. iv. 1. I'faith! the rogue Syrus's impudent pretences
"What are we going to do, i'faith? It is not very difficult to say." "Tell us, then, D'Artagnan." "We are going to reach the nearest seaport, unite our little resources, hire a vessel and return to France. As for me I will give my last sou for it. Life is the greatest treasure, and speaking candidly, ours hangs by a thread." "What do you say to this, Du Vallon?"
"What, my good fellow!" replied Athos, "wait awhile; we have scarcely left him two hours ago he does not know yet in what direction we came nor where we are. We may say that he is not equal to his mother when we put foot in France, if we are not poisoned or killed before then." "Meanwhile, let us dine," suggested Porthos. "I'faith, yes," said Athos, "for I am hungry."
"I'faith, I do! though you will say it's ill coming from me to fault any man's conduct; but I hate your little vices as much as your little virtues: sickly, puny goods and evils, that are too weak for sun to ripen, too low for blast to break, but which endure, the same withered, sapless things, to the death-day Augh! a bold villain, or a real downright good man, for my money.
Pr'ythee, Euripides, a further boon, It goes, I think, together with these rags: The little Mysian bonnet for my head; "For sooth to-day I must put on the beggar, And be still what I am, and yet not seem so." The audience here may know me who I am, But like poor fools the chorus stand unwitting, While I trick them with my flowers of rhetoric. EURIPIDES. A rare device, i'faith! Take it and welcome.
The lady, who dearly loved a jest, and was just then riding the horse of St. Benedict or St. John Gualbert, answered: "I'faith, husband, I am as restless as may be." "Restless," said Fra Puccio, "how so? What means this restlessness?" Whereto with a hearty laugh, for which she doubtless had good occasion, the bonny lady replied: "What means it? How should you ask such a question?
I, so much the worse, I tell you; for mark me, you have been Lovers lately; and old Stories may arise that are not yet forgotten; and having under the Cloke of a Husband both Sisters at command, one for a Wife, t'other for a Mistress, hoyte toyte, there will be mad work, i'faith; What a mixture of Brother by the Father's side, and Uncle by the Mother's side there will be; Aunt by the Mother's side, and Sister by the Father's side; a man may find as good kindred amongst a kennel of Beagles.
Besotted dotard that thou art, accursed be the weal I have willed thee! Marry, seemeth it to thee thou hast not enough to do at home, that thou must go wantoning it in other folk's preserves? A fine gallant, i'faith! Dost thou not know thyself, losel that thou art? Dost thou not know thyself, good for nought?
