Ste. Giue me thy hand, I am sorry I beate thee: But while thou liu'st keepe a good tongue in thy head
Cal. Within this halfe houre will he be asleepe, Wilt thou destroy him then?
Ste. I on mine honour
Ariell. This will I tell my Master
Cal. Thou mak'st me merry: I am full of pleasure, Let vs be iocond. Will you troule the Catch You taught me but whileare?
Ste. At thy request Monster, I will do reason, Any reason: Come on Trinculo, let vs sing.
Sings.
Flout 'em, and cout 'em: and skowt 'em, and flout 'em, Thought is free
Cal. That's not the tune.
Ariell plaies the tune on a Tabor and Pipe.
Ste. What is this same?
Trin. This is the tune of our Catch, plaid by the picture of No-body
Ste. If thou beest a man, shew thy selfe in thy likenes: If thou beest a diuell, take't as thou list
