You whoreson villain, you are a sergeant — you’ll take any man by the throat for twelvepence, and ’rest a man when he’s at dinner, and have him to prison ere the meat be out of his mouth. Go, Dick, take him hence: cut out his tongue for cogging, hough him for running, and, to conclude, brave him with his own mace.

Exit [Butcher] with the Sergeant
