I am qualmish at the smell of leek. [_Crosses to L.H._ _Flu._ I peseech you heartily, scurvy, lowsy knave, at my desires, and my requests, and my petitions, to eat, look you, this leek: because, look you, you do not love it, nor your affections, and your appetites, and your digestions, does not agree with it, I would desire you to eat it. _Pist._ (_crosses to R.H._) Not for Cadwallader and all his goats. _Flu._ There is one goat for you.

Nay, 'pray you, throw none away; the skin is goot for your proken coxcomb. When you take occasions to see leeks hereafter, I pray you, mock at them; that is all. _Pist._ Good. _Flu._ Ay, leeks is goot:--Hold you, there is a groat to heal your pate. _Pist._ Me a groat! _Flu._ Yes, verily and in truth, you shall take it; or I have another leek in my pocket, which you shall eat. _Pist._ I take thy groat in earnest of revenge. _Flu._ If I owe you any thing, I will pay you in cudgels. Heaven be wi' you, and keep you, and heal your pate. [_Exit L.H._ _Pist._ (_crosses to L.H.) All hell shall stir for this. [_Crosses to R.H._ _Gow._ Go, go; you are a counterfeit cowardly knave. Will
