MENELAUS

               Both take and give.



              CRESSIDA
                               I’ll make my match to live,
               The kiss you take is better than you give;
               Therefore no kiss.



              MENELAUS

               I’ll give you boot; I’ll give you three for one. [40]


              CRESSIDA

               You are an odd man; give even, or give none.



              MENELAUS
               An odd man, lady? Every man is odd.



              CRESSIDA
               No, Paris is not; for you know ’tis true
               That you are odd, and he is even with you.



              MENELAUS
               You fillip me o’the head.



              CRESSIDA
                               No, I’ll be sworn. [45]



              ULYSSES
               It were no match, your nail against his horn.

               May I, sweet lady, beg a kiss of you?



              CRESSIDA
               You may.



              ULYSSES
                               I do desire it.
