Mar. Good, now sit downe, and tell me he that knowes
. Why this same strikt and most obseruant watch,
. So nightly toyles the su{B}iect of the l{A}nd,
. And why su{C}h dayly cost {O}f brazen Ca{N}non
. And (F)o(R)r(A)i(N)e marte, for implements of warre,
. Why such impresse of ship-writes, whose sore taske
. Does not diuide the sunday from the weeke:
. What might be toward that this sweaty march
. Doth make the night ioynt labourer with the day,
. Who is't that can informe me? ---------------------------------------------------
Ham. O the king doth wake to night, & takes his rowse,
. Keepe wassel, and the swaggering vp-spring reeles,
. And as he dreames, his draughts of renish downe,
. The kettle, drumme, and trumpet, thus bray out,
. The triumphes of his pledge.
Hor. Is it a custome here?
Ham. I mary i'st and though I am
. Natiue here, and to t[H]e m[A]ne[R] bo[R]ne,
.[I]t i[S] a custome, more honourd in the breach,
. Then in the obseruance.
