V,2,3700 |
Truly, I have him: but I would not be the party
that should desire you to touch him, for his biting
is immortal; those that do die of it do seldom or
never recover.

V,2,3705 |
Very many, men and women too. I heard of one of
them no longer than yesterday: a very honest woman,
but something given to lie; as a woman should not
do, but in the way of honesty: how she died of the
biting of it, what pain she felt: truly, she makes
a very good report o' the worm; but he that will
believe all that they say, shall never be saved by
half that they do: but this is most fallible, the
worm's an odd worm.

V,2,3715 |
I wish you all joy of the worm.
|
4 |
V,2,3718 |
You must think this, look you, that the worm will
do his kind.
|
5 |
V,2,3721 |
Look you, the worm is not to be trusted but in the
keeping of wise people; for, indeed, there is no
goodness in worm.
|
6 |
V,2,3725 |
Very good. Give it nothing, I pray you, for it is
not worth the feeding.
|
7 |
V,2,3728 |
You must not think I am so simple but I know the
devil himself will not eat a woman: I know that a
woman is a dish for the gods, if the devil dress her
not. But, truly, these same whoreson devils do the
gods great harm in their women; for in every ten
that they make, the devils mar five.
|
8 |
V,2,3735 |
Yes, forsooth: I wish you joy o' the worm.
