PISTON. Without the leave of the said Piston obtained. BASILISCO. Without the leave of the said Piston licensed, Obtain'd, and granted. PISTON. Enjoy thy life, and live; I give it thee. BASILISCO. I enjoy my life at thy hands, I confess it: I am up; but that I am religious in mine oath,-- PISTON. What would you do, sir? what would you do? Will you up the ladder, sir, and see the tilting? [_Then they go up the ladders, and they sound_ _within to the first course._ BASILISCO. Better a dog fawn on me than bark. [_Aside._ PISTON. Now, sir, how lik'st thou this course? BASILISCO. Their lances were couch'd too high, And their steeds ill-borne. PISTON. It may be so, it may be so: [_Sound to the second course._ Now, sir, how like you this course? BASILISCO. Pretty, pretty, but not famous; Well for a learner, but not for a warrior. PISTON. By my faith, methought it was excellent. BASILISCO. Ay, in the eye of an infant a peacock's tail is glorious. [_Sound to the third course._ PISTON. O, well-run; the bay horse with the blue tail And the silver knight are both down: By cock and pie,[393] and mouse-foot, The Englishman is a fine knight. BASILISCO. Now, by the marble face of the welkin, He is a brave warrior. PISTON. What an oath is there! fie upon thee, extortioner! BASILISCO. Now comes in the infant, that courts my mistress. [_Sound to the fourth course._ O, that my lance were in my rest, And my beaver clos'd for this encounter. PISTON. O, well-run; my master hath overthrown the Turk. BASILISCO. Now fie upon the Turk; To be dismounted by a child, it vexeth me. [_Sound to the fifth course._ PISTON. O, well-run, master; he hath overthrown the Frenchman. BASILISCO. It is the fury of his horse, not the strength of his arm. I would thou wouldst remit my oath, That I might assail thy master. PISTON.
