_Sec._ You must bend then, Master Bramble; so now I am for you. I have one corner of my brain, I hope, fit to bear one carouse more. Here, lady, to you that are encompassed there, and are ashamed of our company. Ha, ha, ha! by my troth, my learned counsel, Master Bramble, my mind runs so of Cuckold's Haven to-night, that my head runs over with admiration. 186 _Br._ But is not that your wife, neighbour? _Sec._ No, by my troth, Master Bramble. Ha, ha, ha! A pox of all Cuckold's Havens, I say! _Br._ O' my faith, her garments are exceeding like your wife's. _Sec._ _Cucullus non facit monachum_, my learned counsel; all are not cuckolds that seem so, nor all seem not that are so. Give me your hand, my learned counsel; you and I will sup somewhere else than at Sir Francis Drake's ship to-night. Adieu, my noble gossip. _Br._ Good fortune, brave captains; fair skies God send ye! _Omnes._ Farewell, my hearts, farewell! 199 _Pe._ Gossip, laugh no more at Cuckold's Haven, gossip. _Sec._ I have done, I have done, sir; will you lead, Master Bramble? Ha, ha, ha! _Pe._ Captain Seagull, charge a boat. _Omnes._ A boat, a boat, a boat! [_Exeunt all but_ Drawer. _Dr._ Y'are in a proper taking indeed, to take a boat, especially at this time of night, and against tide and tempest. They say yet, "drunken men never take harm." This night will try the truth of that proverb. 208 [_Exit._ [66] This date is too early. The first colony was established (by Sir Richard Grenville) in 1585; see Hakluyt's _Voyages_ (ed. 1600), iii. 254. These colonists stayed only a year in Virginia. A second batch was sent out in 1587. [67] "Only a few ... than we do here."--This is one of the passages that gave offence and procured the author's imprisonment. It is found only in a few copies. Englishmen were disgusted at the favours lavished by James on the needy Scots who swarmed southwards "with pride and hungry hopes completely arm'd." See Jesse's _Court of England under the Stuarts_, ed. 1855, i. 52-3. [68] "Besides ... good as a feast."--This passage is omitted in the copies that contain the cancelled passage about the Scots. [69] A spot on the Thames below Rotherhithe. [70] Old form of porpoise: it occurs in Jonson's _Silent Woman_, &c. The gambolling of porpoises was supposed to portend a storm. [71] See note 1, p. 59.
