[Going.]
LUCIO
Nay tarry, I’ll go along with thee: I can tell thee [160] pretty tales of the
Duke.
DUKE
You have told me too many of him already, sir, if they be true: if not true,
none were enough.
LUCIO
I was once before him for getting a wench with child. [165]
DUKE
Did you such a thing?
LUCIO
Yes, marry, did I; but I was fain to forswear it; they would else have married
me to the rotten medlar.
DUKE
Sir, your company is fairer than honest; rest you well. [170]
[Going.]
LUCIO
By my troth, I’ll go with thee to the lane’s end. If bawdy talk offend you, we’ll
have very little of it. Nay, friar, I am a kind of burr, I shall stick.
Exeunt.
