FALSTAFF
Is this true, Pistol?
EVANS
No, it is false, if it is a pick-purse.
PISTOL
Ha, thou mountain foreigner! Sir John and master mine,
I combat challenge of this latten bilbo. [145]
Word of denial in thy labras here!
Word of denial; froth and scum, thou liest!
SLENDER
[Pointing at Nym] By these gloves, then, ’twas he.
NYM
Be avised, sir, and pass good humours; I will say [150] ‘marry trap with you’,
if you run the nuthook’s humour on me; that is the very note of it.
SLENDER
By this hat, then he in the red face had it; for though I cannot remember
what I did when you made me drunk, yet I am not altogether an ass. [155]
FALSTAFF
What say you, Scarlet and John?
BARDOLPH
Why, sir, for my part, I say the gentleman had drunk himself out of his five
sentences.
EVANS
It is his ‘five senses’. Fie, what the ignorance is!
BARDOLPH
And being fap, sir, was, as they say, cashiered; [160] and so conclusions
passed the careers.
