Francis. Anon, anon, sir. Look down into the Pomgarnet, Ralph.

Henry V. Come hither, Francis.

Francis. My lord?

Henry V. How long hast thou to serve, Francis?

Francis. Forsooth, five years, and as much as to--

Edward Poins. [Within] Francis!

Francis. Anon, anon, sir.

Henry V. Five year! by'r lady, a long lease for the clinking
of pewter. But, Francis, darest thou be so valiant
as to play the coward with thy indenture and show it
a fair pair of heels and run from it?

Francis. O Lord, sir, I'll be sworn upon all the books in
England, I could find in my heart.

Edward Poins. [Within] Francis!

Francis. Anon, sir.

Henry V. How old art thou, Francis?

Francis. Let me see--about Michaelmas next I shall be--

Edward Poins. [Within] Francis!

Francis. Anon, sir. Pray stay a little, my lord.

Henry V. Nay, but hark you, Francis: for the sugar thou
gavest me,'twas a pennyworth, wast't not?

Francis. O Lord, I would it had been two!

Edward Poins. [Within] Francis!

Francis. Anon, anon.

Henry V. Anon, Francis? No, Francis; but to-morrow, Francis;
or, Francis, o' Thursday; or indeed, Francis, when
thou wilt. But, Francis!

Francis. My lord?

Henry V. Wilt thou rob this leathern jerkin, crystal-button,
not-pated, agate-ring, puke-stocking, caddis-garter,
smooth-tongue, Spanish-pouch,--

Francis. O Lord, sir, who do you mean?

Henry V. Why, then, your brown bastard is your only drink;
for look you, Francis, your white canvas doublet
will sully: in Barbary, sir, it cannot come to so much.

Francis. What, sir?

Henry V. I am now of all humours that have showed themselves
humours since the old days of goodman Adam to the
pupil age of this present twelve o'clock at midnight.
[Re-enter FRANCIS]
What's o'clock, Francis?

Francis. Anon, anon, sir.
