Speeches (Lines) for Nym in "The Merry Wives of Windsor"

Slender. Ay, it is no matter.

Nym. Slice, I say! pauca, pauca: slice! that's my humour.

Slender. By these gloves, then, 'twas he.

Nym. Be avised, sir, and pass good humours: I will say
'marry trap' with you, if you run the nuthook's
humour on me; that is the very note of it.

Pistol. O base Hungarian wight! wilt thou the spigot wield?

Nym. He was gotten in drink: is not the humour conceited?

Falstaff. I am glad I am so acquit of this tinderbox: his
thefts were too open; his filching was like an
unskilful singer; he kept not time.

Nym. The good humour is to steal at a minute's rest.

Pistol. He hath studied her will, and translated her will,
out of honesty into English.

Nym. The anchor is deep: will that humour pass?

Pistol. As many devils entertain; and 'To her, boy,' say I.

Nym. The humour rises; it is good: humour me the angels.

Pistol. Then did the sun on dunghill shine.

Nym. I thank thee for that humour.

Pistol. Shall I Sir Pandarus of Troy become,
And by my side wear steel? then, Lucifer take all!

Nym. I will run no base humour: here, take the
humour-letter: I will keep the havior of reputation.

Pistol. Let vultures gripe thy guts! for gourd and fullam holds,
And high and low beguiles the rich and poor:
Tester I'll have in pouch when thou shalt lack,
Base Phrygian Turk!

Nym. I have operations which be humours of revenge.

Pistol. Wilt thou revenge?

Nym. By welkin and her star!

Pistol. With wit or steel?

Nym. With both the humours, I:
I will discuss the humour of this love to Page.

Pistol. And I to Ford shall eke unfold
How Falstaff, varlet vile,
His dove will prove, his gold will hold,
And his soft couch defile.

Nym. My humour shall not cool: I will incense Page to
deal with poison; I will possess him with
yellowness, for the revolt of mine is dangerous:
that is my true humour.

Ford. [Aside] I will be patient; I will find out this.

Nym. [To PAGE] And this is true; I like not the humour
of lying. He hath wronged me in some humours: I
should have borne the humoured letter to her; but I
have a sword and it shall bite upon my necessity.
He loves your wife; there's the short and the long.
My name is Corporal Nym; I speak and I avouch; 'tis
true: my name is Nym and Falstaff loves your wife.
Adieu. I love not the humour of bread and cheese,
and there's the humour of it. Adieu.
