Ay, madam, well; for I was bred and born
Not three hours' travel from this very place.

Sir Toby Belch

Fie, that you'll say so! he plays o' the
viol-de-gamboys, and speaks three or four languages

Cesario, you are like to be much advanced: he hath

Sir Toby Belch

757

To hear by the nose, it is dulcet in contagion.

rouse the night-owl in a catch that will draw three
souls out of one weaver? shall we do that?

Sir Toby Belch

775

My lady's a Cataian, we are politicians, Malvolio's
a Peg-a-Ramsey, and 'Three merry men be we.' Am not
I consanguineous? am I not of her blood?
Tillyvally. Lady!

'There dwelt a man in Babylon, lady, lady!'

Maria

Get ye all three into the box-tree: Malvolio's
coming down this walk: he has been yonder i' the
sun practising behavior to his own shadow this half
hour: observe him, for the love of mockery; for I

[Throws down a letter]
for here comes the trout that must be caught with tickling.

Sir Toby Belch

1779

He is knight, dubbed with unhatched rapier and on
carpet consideration; but he is a devil in private
brawl: souls and bodies hath he divorced three; and
his incensement at this moment is so implacable,
that satisfaction can be none but by pangs of death

Feste

2223

Primo, secundo, tertio, is a good play; and the old
saying is, the third pays for all: the triplex,
sir, is a good tripping measure; or the bells of
Saint Bennet, sir, may put you in mind; one, two, three.

To-day, my lord; and for three months before,
No interim, not a minute's vacancy,
Both day and night did we keep company.

Here comes the countess: now heaven walks on earth.
But for thee, fellow; fellow, thy words are madness:
Three months this youth hath tended upon me;
But more of that anon. Take him aside.
