Have at thee! Ther. Hold thy whore, Grecian!-now for thy whore, Trojan !-now the sleeve, now the sleeve! [Exeunt TROILUS and DIOMEDES, fighting. Enter HECTOR. Hect. What art thou, Greek? art thou for Hector's match? Art thou of blood, and honour? Ther. No, no:-I am a rascal; a scurvy railing knave; a very filthy rogue. Hect. I do believe thee;-live. [Exit. Ther. God-a-mercy, that thou wilt believe me; But a plague break thy neck, for frighting me! What's become of the wenching rogues? I think, they have swallowed one another: I would laugh at that miracle. Yet, in a sort, lechery eats itself. I'll seek them. [Exit. SCENE V. The same. Enter DIOMEDES and a Servant. Dio. Go, go, my servant, take thou Troilus' horse; Present the fair steed to my lady Cressid: Fellow, commend my service to her beauty; Tell her, I have chastis'd the amorous Trojan, And am her knight by proof. Serv. I go, my lord. [Exit Servant. Enter AGAMEMNON. Agam. Renew, renew! The fierce Polydamus And stands colossus-wise, waving his beam,3 Enter NESTOR. Nest. Go, bear Patroclus' body to Achilles'; That what he will, he does; and does so much, 3 Lance. 4 Bruised, crushed. VOL VII. 5 Shoal of fish. D D Enter ULYSSES. Ulyss. O, courage, courage, princes! great Achilles Is arming, weeping, cursing, vowing vengeance: Patroclus' wounds have rous'd his drowsy blood, Together with his mangled Myrmidons, That noseless, handless, hack'd and chipp'd, come to him, Crying on Hector. Ajax hath lost a friend, With such a careless force, and forceless care, 6 Come, come, thou boy-queller, show thy face; Know what it is to meet Achilles angry. Hector! where's Hector? I will none but Hector. 6 Killer. [Exeunt. SCENE VI. Another Part of the Field. Enter AJAX. Ajax. Troilus, thou coward Troilus, show thy head! Enter DIOMEDES. Dio. Troilus, I say! where's Troilus? Ajax. Dio. I would correct him. What would'st thou ? Ajax. Were I the general, thou should'st have my office, Ere that correction :-Troilus, I say! what, Troilus! Enter TROILUS. Tro. O traitor Diomed!-turn thy false face, thou traitor, And pay thy life thou ow'st me for my horse! Dio. Ha! art thou there? 7 Ajax. I'll fight with him alone: stand, Diomed. Dio. He is my prize, I will not look upon. Tro. Come both, you cogging Greeks; have at you both. [Exeunt, fighting. Enter HECTOR. Hect. Yea, Troilus? O, well fought, my youngest Enter ACHILLES. Achil. Now do I see thee: Ha! Have at thee, Hector. Hect. Pause, if thou wilt. Achil. I do disdain thy courtesy, proud Trojan. My rest and negligence befriend thee now, Till when, go seek thy fortune. [Exit. Fare thee well: I would have been much more a fresher man, Re-enter TROILUS. Tro. Ajax hath ta'en Æneas; Shall it be? Enter one in sumptuous Armour. [Exit. Hect. Stand, stand, thou Greek; thou art a goodly mark: No? wilt thou not?—I like thy armour well; 2 I'll frush it, and unlock the rivets all, But I'll be master of it :-Wilt thou not, beast, abide? Why then, fly on, I'll hunt thee for thy hide. [Exeunt. 9 Prevail over. ■ Care. 2 Burst. |
