Another Part of the Forest. |
|
Enter JAQUES, Lords, and Foresters. |
Jaq. Which is he that killed the deer? |
First Lord. Sir, it was I. |
Jaq. Let's present him to the duke, like a Roman conqueror; and it would do well to set the deer's horns upon his head for a branch of victory. Have you no song, forester, for this purpose? |
Second Lord. Yes, sir. |
Jaq. Sing it: 'tis no matter how it be in tune so it make noise enough. |
|
| SONG. |
| |
| What shall he have that kill'd the deer? |
| His leather skin and horns to wear. |
| Then sing him home. [The rest shall bear this burden. |
| Take thou no scorn to wear the horn; |
| It was a crest ere thou wast born: |
| Thy father's father wore it, |
| And thy father bore it: |
| The horn, the horn, the lusty horn |
| Is not a thing to laugh to scorn. [Exeunt. |
