:51:05
How chance the King
comes with so small
a number?

:51:09
An thou hadst been
set i' th' stocks
for that question,

:51:11
thou hadst
well deserved it.

:51:14
We'll set thee
to school to an ant,

:51:16
to teach thee
there's no labouring
i' th' winter.

:51:19
All that follow their nose
:51:22
are led by their eyes
but blind men;

:51:25
and there's not one nose
among twenty but can
smell him that's stinking.

:51:32
Let go thy hold
when a great wheel
runs down the hill,

:51:35
lest it break thy neck
with following;

:51:38
but the great one
that goes upward,

:51:40
let him draw thee after.
:51:42
When a wise man
gives thee better counsel,
give me mine again.

:51:46
I would have none
but knaves follow it,
since a fool gives it.

:51:50
That, sir,
:51:51
# Which serves and seeks for gain #
:51:55
# And follows but for form #
:51:59
# Will pack when it begins to rain #
:52:04
# And leave thee in the storm ##
:52:10
Where learn'd
you this, fool?

:52:16
Not i' th' stocks, fool.
:52:18
Deny to speak with me?
:52:21
They are sick!
They are weary!
They have travelled all night!

:52:25
Fetch me a better answer!
:52:27
My dear lord,
you know the fiery
quality of the Duke.

:52:30
Fiery? What quality?
:52:33
Why, Gloucester... Gloucester,
I'd speak with the Duke
of Cornwall and his wife.

:52:37
Well, my good lord,
I have inform'd them so.

:52:39
Inform'd them!
:52:41
Dost thou understand me, man?
:52:43
Ay, my good lord.
:52:45
The King would speak
with Cornwall.

:52:48
The dear father would
with his daughter speak;

:52:50
commands her service.
:52:53
Are they inform'd of this?
:52:56
My breath and blood! Fiery?
:52:59
The fiery Duke?
