Don Gagnon
PISTOL I’ll see her damned first to Pluto’s damnèd 158 lake, by this hand, to th’ infernal deep with Erebus 159 and tortures vile also. Hold hook and line, say I. 160 Down, down, dogs! Down, ⟨Fates!⟩ Have we not 161 Hiren here? 162 < He draws his sword. > HOSTESS Good Captain Peesell, be quiet. ’Tis very late, 163 i’ faith. I beseek you now, aggravate your choler. 164 PISTOL These be good humors indeed. Shall pack- 165 horses and hollow pampered jades of Asia, which 166 cannot go but thirty mile a day, compare with 167 Caesars and with cannibals and Troyant Greeks? 168 Nay, rather damn them with King Cerberus, and let 169 the welkin roar. Shall we fall foul for toys? 170 HOSTESS By my troth, captain, these are very bitter 171 words. 172 BARDOLPH Begone, good ancient. This will grow to a 173 brawl anon. 174
