How now? what's the matter? Hanged himself? Slid carry him afore a Justice, it's chance medley on my word. One has executed himself contrary to the order of Law, and by my consent he shall answer't. Marry if you had not been undone, you had been hanged I can tell you. Nay how accursed are thou, that art cause to the curse of the poor? Some desperate fury possess thee, that thou mayest hang thy self too. Oh miracle! see when a man ha grace. Well, I'll get our Clarke put his conversion in the Chronicle. Aye me, what pitiful sighed is this? help, help, help Oh here's a man has hanged himself, help to get him again. Stand by, he recovers, give him breath. I, and I had not cut the halter. Out on me, it's the Caterpillar Sordido; how cursed are the poor, that the viper was blessed with this good fortune? Would he were in case to answer it. Mass, 'twas well you went the footway neighbour. Never mayest thou be saved, that saved so damned a monster. Yes believe me; Like master Vicars bowls upon the green, for all the world. How now, what's here to do? I, and to save so wretched a Caitiff. Had't not been pity so good a man should have been cast away? How comes this? Cursed be thy fingers that loosed him. Do, for I warrant him he's a virtuous man. Oh God how he wept if you marked it: did you see how the tears trilled? Oh neighbour, god's blessing your heart neighbour, 'twas a good grateful deed.
Plot summary
Plot — Every Man Out of His Humor
Cordatus and Mitis are brought by Asper to watch a satirical play, in which he is to be an actor, playing malicious Macilente. They keep up a running commentary between, and sometimes during, the scenes. Each character in the play has a ‘humour’ or obsession to be purged. Sogliardo wants to be a gentleman: he takes instruction from Carlo Buffone and purchases himself a coat of arms; he is eventually used to humiliate the conceited court lady Saviolina by showing that she cannot tell true gentility from false. The farmer Sordido is hoarding grain, and resists a court order to sell it because he is gambling on the price going up after a bad harvest; when this does not happen, he tries to hang himself, and repents on hearing the comments of the rustics who cut him down. Puntarvolo plays chivalric wooing games of mock- adultery with his wife, and plans to travel to Constantinople with his wife and dog, venturing money on their safe return; but he loses the inclination when Macilente poisons the dog. Fungoso tries to imitate the courtier Brisk’s fashionable suit, but is continually frustrated because Brisk keeps changing his clothes. The uxorious Deliro seeks advice on how best to please his contrary wife, Fungoso’s sister. Shift, wanting to be known for a machismo he doesn’t really have, represents himself as a robber, but the threat of hanging forces him to admit the truth. Carlo Buffone has a humour of talking: at a tavern, he performs a comic dialogue between two cups, playing both parts himself, and Puntarvolo seals his mouth with wax. The affray brings the Constable, who is minded to arrest them all but is content tv take only Brisk. Fungoso, penniless from his clothing purchases, is left to pay the tavern bill, and has to be rescued by bis brother-in-law, who also calls in the mortgage on ===== PAGE 162 ===== Brisk’s lands; the courtier is left in prison for debts totalling £13,000, curing him of his humour. Macilente is purged of his malign humour by the sight of the Queen.
