	go against the hair of your professions. Is it not true, 
	Master Page?

Page	Master Shallow, you have yourself been a great fighter, 
	though now a man of peace.

Shallow	Bodykins, Master Page, though I now be old and of the 
	peace, if I see a sword out my finger itches to make one. 
	Though we are justices and doctors and churchmen, Master 
	Page, we have some salt of our youth in us; we are the 
	sons of women, Master Page.

Page	'Tis true, Master Shallow.

Shallow	It will be found so, Master Page. Master Doctor Caius, I 
	am come to fetch you home. I am sworn of the peace; you 
	have showed yourself a wise physician, and Sir Hugh hath 
	shown himself a wise and patient churchman. You must go 
	with me, Master Doctor.

Host	Pardon, guest Justice. - A word, Monsieur Mockwater.

Caius	Mock-vater? Vat is dat?

	do well?
