SCENE XIII.
Enter Thersites, Menelaus and Paris.
Ther.
The cuckold, and the cuckold maker are at it.
Now bull, now dog. 'Loo, Paris, 'loo. My double-hen'd
sparrow. 'Loo, Paris, 'loo. The bull has the
game; 'ware horns, ho.
[Exeunt Paris and Menelaus.
Enter Bastard.
Bast.
Turn, slave, and fight.
Ther.
What art thou?
Bast.
A bastard son of Priam's.
Ther.
I am a bastard too, I love bastards. I am a
bastard begot, bastard instructed, bastard in mind, bastard
in 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 for a whore, he tempts judgment.
Farewel, bastard.
Bast.
The devil take thee, coward.
