“Do you know me, my lord?”

Grant.

“Excellent well; you are a fishmonger.”

H. G.

“Not I, my lord.”

Grant.

“Then I would you were so honest a man.”

H. G.

“Honest, my lord?”

Grant.

“Ay, sir; to be honest, as this world goes, is to be one man picked out of ten thousand.”

H. G.

“That's very true....... What do you read, my lord?”

Grant.

“Words, words, words!”

H. G.

“What is the matter, my lord?”

Grant.

“Between who?”

H. G.

“I mean the matter that you read, my lord.”

Grant.

“Slanders, Sir.”

——Hamlet, Act II., Scene II.
