| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| "Oh day" "Oh mischief" "Oh plague" (end 3:2) | Are you good men and true? |
| Yea, that they should SUFFER SALVATION | Nay, that were a PUNISHMENT too good for them |
| Well, give them their charge, neighbor Dogberry | First, who do you think the most DESARTLESS man to be constible? |
| Otecake, sir, or Seacole, for they can read and write. | Come hither, neighbor Seacole. God hath blessed you with a good name. To be a well-favored man is the gift of fortune, but to write and read comes by nature. |
| Both which, master constable- | You have. I knew it would be your answer. You are thought to be the most SENSELESS and fit man for the constable of the watch; therefore, bear the lantern. You are to bid many man stand, in the prince's name |
| How if he will not stand? | Why, then, take no note of him, but go and thank God you are rid of a knave |
| If he will not stand when he is bidden, he is none of the prince's subjects. | True, and they are to meddle with none but the prince's subjects. You shall also make no noise in the streets; for, to talk is most TOLERABLE and not to be endured |
| We will sleep rather than talk: we know what belongs to a watch | Why, you speak like a most quiet watchman. You are to call at all the ale-houses, and bid those that are drunk to get them to bed. |
| How if they will not? | Why, then, let them alone until they are sober. |
| Well, sir. | If you meet a thief, you may suspect him. |
| If we know him to be a thief, shall we not lay hands on him? | I think the most peacable way for you, if you do take a thief, is to let him STEAL out of your company |
| How if the nurse be asleep and will not hear us? | Why, then, depart in peace and let the child wake her with crying |
| 'Tis very true | This is the end of the charge: you, constable, are to present the prince's own person. Indeed, the watch ought to offend no man, and it is an offense to stay a man against his will |
| By'r lady, I think it be so | Well, masters, good night. Come, neighbor. |
| Well, masters, we hear our charge: let us sit here till two, and then all to bed | One more word, honest neighbors. I pray you watch about Signor Leonato's door; for the wedding being there tomorrow, there is a great coil tonight. Adieu, be vigilant, I beseech you. (Exunt) |
| 3:5 What would you with me, honest neighbor? | Marry, sir, I would have some confidence with you that DECERNS you nearly |
| Brief, I pray you; for you see it is a busy time with me | Marry, this it is, sir |
| What is it, my good friends? | Goodman Verges speaks a little off the matter; an old man, sir |
| Neighbours, you are tedious. | Well said, neighbor Verges, good neighbor |
| I would feign know what you have to say Marry, sir, our watch to-night ha' ta'en a couple of as arrant knaves as any in Messina. | One word, sir: our watch, sir, have indeed comprehended two aspicious persons, and we would have them this morning examined before your worship |
| I must leave you. Take their examination yourself and bring it me: I am now in great haste. | Go, good partner, go, get you to Seacole; we are now to examination these men. |
| And we must do it wisely. | We will spare no wit, I warrant you! |
| (all enter) | Is our whole dissembly appeared? |
| Which be the malefactors? | Marry, that I am and my partner |
| But which are the offenders that are to be examined? let them come before master constable. | Yea, marry, let them come before me. What is your name, friend? |
| Borachio. | Pray, write down, Borachio. Yours? |
| My name is Conrade. | Write down Conrade. And do you serve God? |
| Yea, sir, we hope. | Write down that they hope they serve God. Masters, it is proved already that you are little better than false knaves- |
| Marry, sir, we say we are none. | I say to you, it is thought you are false knaves. |
| Sir, I say to you we are none. | Well, stand aside. Have you writ down that they are none? |
| Master constable, you go not the way to examine: you must call forth the watch that are their accusers. | Yea, marry, that's the eftest way. Let the watch come forth. Masters, I charge you, in the prince's name, accuse these men. |
| This man said, sir, that Don John, the prince's brother, was a villain. | Write down Prince John a villain. Why, this is flat perjury, to call a prince's brother villain. |
| Master constable,— | Pray thee, fellow, peace: I do not like thy look, I promise thee. |
| Marry, that he had received a thousand ducats of Don John for accusing the Lady Hero wrongfully. | Flat burglary as ever was committed. |
| And that Count Claudio did mean, upon his words, to disgrace Hero before the whole assembly. and not marry her. | O villain! thou wilt be condemned into everlasting redemption for this. |
| Prince John is this morning secretly stolen away. Hero was in this manner accused, in this very manner refused and upon the grief of this suddenly died. Let these men be bound and brought to Leonatos. I will go before and show him their examination. | Come, let them be opinioned. |
| off, coxcomb! | Thou naughty varlet! |
| Away, you are an ass, you are an ass! | Dost thou not suspect my place? dost thou not suspect my years? Write me down an ass! But, masters, remember that I am an ass, forget not that I am an ass. Bring him away. O that I had been writ down an ass! |
| Officers, what offence have these men done? | Marry, sir, they have committed false report; moreover, they have spoken untruths; secondarily, they are slanders; sixth and lastly, they have belied a lady; thirdly, they have verified unjust things; and, to conclude, they are lying knaves. |
| Sweet Hero! now thy image doth appear In the rare semblance that I loved it first. | Come, bring away the plaintiffs: by this time our sexton hath reformed Signior Leonato of the matter: and, masters, do not forget to specify, when time and place shall serve, that I am an ass. |
| No, by my soul, she was not, Nor knew not what she did when she spoke to me, But always hath been just and virtuous In any thing that I do know by her. | Moreover sir, this plaintiff here, the offender, did call me ass: I beseech you, let it be remembered in his punishment. |
| I thank thee for thy care and honest pains. | God save the foundation! |
| Go, I discharge thee of thy prisoner, and I thank thee. | I leave an arrant knave with your worship; God keep your worship! I wish your worship well; God restore you to health! God prohibit it! Come, neighbour. |
