PIPER [in a rage] That Saint!-- KURT Hence, wandering dog! PIPER Oho!--Well, every Saint may have his day. But there are dog-days coming.--Eh, your worship? [To ANSELM, suddenly] You, there! You--Brother--Father--Uncle--You! Speak! Will you let them in, to say their prayers And mock me through their fingers?--Tell these men To settle it, among their mouldy pockets, Whether they keep their oath. Then will I go. KURT [savagely] Away with you!-- ANSELM The Piper should be heard; Ye know it well. Render to Caesar, therefore, That which is Caesar's. PIPER --Give the Devil his due! |
