ACT IV
Enter Lady of the House and Nurse.
Lady
Hold, take these keys and fetch more spices, nurse.
Nurse
They call for dates and quinces in the pastry.
Enter Old Capulet.
Cap
Come, stir, stir, stir! The second cock hath crow'd,
The curfew bell hath rung, 'tis three o'clock.
Look to the bak'd meats, good Angelica;
Spare not for cost.
Nurse
Go, you cot-quean, go,
Get you to bed! Faith, you'll be sick to-morrow
For this night's watching.
Cap
No, not a whit. What, I have watch'd ere now
All night for lesser cause, and ne'er been sick.
Lady
Ay, you have been a mouse-hunt in your time;
But I will watch you from such watching now.
Exeunt Lady and Nurse.
Cap
A jealous hood, a jealous hood!
Enter three or four [Fellows, with spits and logs and baskets.
What is there? Now, fellow,
Fellow
Things for the cook, sir; but I know not what.
Cap
Make haste, make haste.
[Exit Fellow.]
Sirrah, fetch drier
logs.
Call Peter; he will show thee where they are.
Fellow
I have a head, sir, that will find out logs
And never trouble Peter for the matter.
Cap
Mass, and well said; a merry whoreson, ha!
Thou shalt be loggerhead.
[Exit Fellow.]
Good faith, 'tis day.
