_1_.

And being thorowly kick'd, laughs at the kicker.

_2_

So much for us; proceed.

_1_.

And in this beaten scorn, as I may call it, Delivers up his weapon; where lies the error?

_Bes_.

It lies i'th' beating Sir, I found it four dayes since.

_2_.

The error, and a sore one as I take it, Lies in the thing kicking.

_Bes_.

I understand that well, 'tis so indeed Sir.

_1_.

That is according to the man that did it.

_2_.

There springs a new branch, whose was the foot?

_Bes_.

A Lords.

_1_.

The cause is mighty, but had it been two Lords, And both had kick'd you, if you laugh, 'tis clear.

_Bes_.

I did laugh, But how will that help me, Gentlemen?

_2_.

Yes, it shall help you if you laught aloud.

_Bes_.

As loud as a kick'd man could laugh, I laught Sir.

_1_.

My reason now, the valiant man is known By suffering and contemning; you have Enough of both, and you are valiant.

_2_.

If he be sure he has been kick'd enough: For that brave sufferance you speak of brother, Consists not in a beating and away, But in a cudgell'd body, from eighteen To eight and thirty; in a head rebuk'd With pots of all size, degrees, stools, and bed-staves, This showes a valiant man.

_Bes_.

Then I am valiant, as valiant as the proudest, For these are all familiar things to me; Familiar as my sleep, or want of money, All my whole body's but one bruise with beating, I think I have been cudgell'd with all nations, And almost all Religions.

_2_.

Embrace him brother, this man is valiant, I know it by my self, he's valiant.

_1_.

Captain, thou art a valiant Gentleman, To bide upon, a very valiant man.

_Bes_.

My equall friends o'th'Sword, I must request your hands to this.

_2_.

'Tis fit it should be.

_Bes_.

Boy, get me some wine, and pen and Ink within: Am I clear, Gentlemen?

_1_.

Sir, the world has taken notice what we have done, Make much of your body, for I'll pawn my steel, Men will be coyer of their legs hereafter.

_Bes_.

I must request you goe along and testife to the Lord _Bacurius_, whose foot has struck me, how you find my cause.

_2_.

We will, and tell that Lord he must be rul'd, Or there are those abroad, will rule his Lordship.

[_Exeunt_.

_Enter_ Arbaces _at one door, and_ Gob. _and_ Panthea _at another_.
