FOURTH COUNTRYMAN
Content; the sports once ended, we’ll perform.
Away, boys, and hold!
ARCITE
By your leaves, honest friends; [60]
Pray you, whither go you?
FOURTH COUNTRYMAN
Whither?
Why, what a question’s that!
ARCITE
Yes, ’tis a question
To me that know not.
THIRD COUNTRYMAN

SECOND COUNTRYMAN
Where were you bred you know it not?
ARCITE
Not far, sir.
Are there such games today?
FIRST COUNTRYMAN
Yes, marry are there, [65]
And such as you never saw. The Duke himself
Will be in person there.
ARCITE
What pastimes are they?
