tenor; he has a notable head-piece I can tell you, and he's the ablest man for judgment in all Troy; you may turn him loose, i'faith, and by my troth a proper person. When comes Troilus? I'll shew you Troilus anon; if he see me, you shall see him nod at me. HECTOR _passes over._ That's Hector, that, that, look you that; there's a fellow! go thy way, Hector; there's a brave man, niece. O brave Hector, look how he looks! there's a countenance. Is it not a brave man, niece? _Cres._ I always told you so. _Pand._ Is he not? it does a man's heart good to look on him; look you, look you there, what hacks are on his helmet! this was no boy's play, i'faith; he laid it on with a vengeance, take it off who will, as they say! there are hacks, niece! _Cres._ Were those with swords? _Pand._ Swords, or bucklers, faulchions, darts, and lances! any thing, he cares not! an' the devil come, it is all one to him: by Jupiter he looks so terribly, that I am half afraid to praise him. _Enter_ PARIS. Yonder comes Paris, yonder comes Paris! look ye yonder, niece; is it not a brave young prince too?

No, yes; he'll fight indifferently well.--I marvel in my heart what's become of Troilus:--Hark! do you not hear the people cry, Troilus?--Helenus is a priest, and keeps a whore; he'll fight for his whore, or he's no true priest, I warrant him. _Enter_ TROILUS _passing over._ _Cres._ What sneaking fellow comes yonder? _Pand._ Where, yonder? that's Deiphobus: No, I lie. I lie, that's Troilus! there's a man, niece! hem! O brave Troilus! the prince of chivalry, and flower of fidelity! _Cres._ Peace, for shame, peace! _Pand._ Nay, but mark him then! O brave Troilus! there's a man of men, niece! look you how his sword is bloody, and his helmet more hacked than Hector's, and how he looks, and how he goes! O admirable youth! he never saw two-and-twenty. Go thy way, Troilus, go thy way! had I a sister were a grace, and a daughter a goddess, he should take his choice of them. O adm
