_2_. Brother, I say you palter, the must three times together; I wear as sharp Steel as another man, and my Fox bites as deep, musted, my dear brother. But to the cause again. _Bes_. Nay look you Gentlemen. _2_. In a word, I ha' done. _1_. A tall man but intemperate, 'tis great pity; Once more suppose the Boy kick'd. _2_. Forward. _1_. And being thorowly kick'd, laughs at the kicker. _2_ So much for us; proceed. _1_. And in this beaten scorn, as I may call it, Delivers up his weapon; where lies the error? _Bes_. It lies i'th' beating Sir, I found it four dayes since. _2_. The error, and a sore one as I take it, Lies in the thing kicking. _Bes_. I understand that well, 'tis so indeed Sir. _1_. That is according to the man that did it. _2_. There springs a new branch, whose was the foot? _Bes_. A Lords. _1_. The cause is mighty, but had it been two Lords, And both had kick'd you, if you laugh, 'tis clear. _Bes_. I did laugh, But how will that help me, Gentlemen? _2_. Yes, it shall help you if you laught aloud. _Bes_. As loud as a kick'd man could laugh, I laught Sir. _1_. My reason now, the valiant man is known By suffering and contemning; you have Enough of both, and you are valiant. _2_. If he be sure he has been kick'd enough: For that brave sufferance you speak of brother, Consists not in a beating and away, But in a cudgell'd body, from eighteen To eight and thirty; in a head rebuk'd With pots of all size, degrees, stools, and bed-staves, This showes a valiant man. _Bes_. Then I am valiant, as valiant as the proudest, For these are all familiar things to me; Familiar as my sleep, or want of money, All my whole body's but one bruise with beating, I think I have been cudgell'd with all nations, And almost all Religions. _2_. Embrace him brother, this man is valiant, I know it by my self, he's valiant. _1_. Captain, thou art a valiant Gentleman, To bide upon, a very valiant man. _Bes_. My equall friends o'th'Sword, I must request your hands to this. _2_. 'Tis fit it should be. _Bes_. Boy, get me some wine, and pen and Ink within: Am I clear, Gentlemen? _1_. Sir, the world has taken notice what we have done, Make much of your body, for I'll pawn my steel, Men will be coyer of their legs hereafter. _Bes_. I must request you goe along and testife to the Lord _Bacurius_, whose foot has struck me, how you find my cause. _2_. We will, and tell that Lord he must be rul'd, Or there are those abroad, will rule his Lordship. [_Exeunt_. _Enter_ Arbaces _at one door, and_ Gob. _and_ Panthea _at another_. _Gob_. Sir, here's the Princess. _Arb_. Leave us then alone, For the main cause of her imprisonment Must not be heard by any but her self. [_Exit_ Gob.
