FALSTAFF

Fare thee well; commend me to them both. There’s my purse; I am yet thy
debtor. Boy, go along with [120] this woman. [ Exeunt Mistress Quickly and
Robin.] This news distracts me.

PISTOL
This punk is one of Cupid’s carriers.

Clap on more sails, pursue; up with your fights;
Give fire; she is my prize, or ocean whelm them all! [125]
[Exit.]

FALSTAFF
Say’st thou so, old Jack? Go thy ways; I’ll make more of thy old body than I
have done. Will they yet look after thee? Wilt thou, after the expense of so

much money, be now a gainer? Good body, I thank thee. Let them say ’tis
grossly done; so it be fairly done, no matter. [130]

Enter Bardolph.

BARDOLPH
Sir John, there’s one Master Brook below would fain speak with you, and be
acquainted with you; and hath sent your worship a morning’s draught of sack.

FALSTAFF

Brook is his name?

BARDOLPH

Ay, sir. [135]

FALSTAFF
Call him in. [Exit Bardolph.] Such Brooks are welcome to me, that o’erflows
such liquor. Ah, ha, Mistress Ford and Mistress Page, have I encompassed
you? Go to;

via!

Enter [Bardolph, and] Ford in disguise.
