SHAKESPEARE
[Selections continued from Volume xxii. ]
DOGBERRY CAPTAIN OF THE WATCH
From Much Ado About Nothing'
Scene: A Street. Enter Dogberry and Verges, with the Watch.
OGBERRY Are you good men and true?
DOGE Verges- Yea, or else it were pity but they should suffer
salvation, body and soul.
Dogberry-Nay, that were a punishment too good for them,
if they should have any allegiance in them, being chosen for the
prince's watch.
Verges-Well, give them their charge, neighbor Dogberry.
Dogberry-First, who think you the most desartless man to
be constable?
First Watch - Hugh Oatcake, sir, or George Seacoal; for they
can write and read.
Dogberry-Come hither, neighbor Seacoal. God hath blessed
you with a good name: to be a well-favored man is the gift of
fortune, but to write and read comes by nature.
Second Watch - Both which, master constable,—
Dogberry - You have: I knew it would be your answer.
Well, for your favor, sir, why, give God thanks, and make no
boast of it; and for your writing and reading, let that appear
when there is no need of such vanity. You are thought here to
be the most senseless and fit man for the constable of the watch;
therefore, bear you the lantern. This is your charge. You shall
comprehend all vagrom men: you are to bid any man stand, in
the prince's name.
Second Watch - How, if 'a will not stand?
Dogberry-Why then, take no note of him, but let him go;
and presently call the rest of the watch together, and thank God
you are rid of a knave.
Verges- If he will not stand when he is bidden, he is none
of the prince's subjects.
## p. 13228 (#26) ###########################################

SHAKESPEARE
Dogberry-True, and they are to meddle with none but the
prince's subjects. You shall also make no noise in the streets;
for, for the watch to babble and talk is most tolerable, and not
to be endured.
Second Watch-We will rather sleep than talk: we know what
belongs to a watch.
Dogberry-Why, you speak like an ancient and most quiet
watchman, for I cannot see how sleeping should offend; only
have a care that your bills be not stolen. Well, you are to call
at all the ale-houses, and bid those that are drunk get them to
bed.
Second Watch - How if they will not?
Dogberry-Why then, let them alone till they are sober; if
they make you not then the better answer, you may say, they
are not the men you took them for.
Second Watch - Well, sir.
Dogberry-If you meet a thief, you may suspect him, by
virtue of your office, to be no true man; and for such kind of
men, the less you meddle or make with them, why, the more is
for your honesty.
Second Watch - If we know him to be a thief, shall we not
lay hands on him?
Dogberry-Truly, by your office you may; but I think, they
that touch pitch will be defiled.

SHAKESPEARE
[Selections continued from Volume xxii. ]
DOGBERRY CAPTAIN OF THE WATCH
From Much Ado About Nothing'
Scene: A Street. Enter Dogberry and Verges, with the Watch.
OGBERRY Are you good men and true?
DOGE Verges- Yea, or else it were pity but they should suffer
salvation, body and soul.
Dogberry-Nay, that were a punishment too good for them,
if they should have any allegiance in them, being chosen for the
prince's watch.
Verges-Well, give them their charge, neighbor Dogberry.
Dogberry-First, who think you the most desartless man to
be constable?
First Watch - Hugh Oatcake, sir, or George Seacoal; for they
can write and read.
Dogberry-Come hither, neighbor Seacoal. God hath blessed
you with a good name: to be a well-favored man is the gift of
fortune, but to write and read comes by nature.
Second Watch - Both which, master constable,—
Dogberry - You have: I knew it would be your answer.
Well, for your favor, sir, why, give God thanks, and make no
boast of it; and for your writing and reading, let that appear
when there is no need of such vanity. You are thought here to
be the most senseless and fit man for the constable of the watch;
therefore, bear you the lantern. This is your charge. You shall
comprehend all vagrom men: you are to bid any man stand, in
the prince's name.
Second Watch - How, if 'a will not stand?
Dogberry-Why then, take no note of him, but let him go;
and presently call the rest of the watch together, and thank God
you are rid of a knave.
Verges- If he will not stand when he is bidden, he is none
of the prince's subjects.

SHAKESPEARE
Dogberry-True, and they are to meddle with none but the
prince's subjects. You shall also make no noise in the streets;
for, for the watch to babble and talk is most tolerable, and not
to be endured.
Second Watch-We will rather sleep than talk: we know what
belongs to a watch.
Dogberry-Why, you speak like an ancient and most quiet
watchman, for I cannot see how sleeping should offend; only
have a care that your bills be not stolen. Well, you are to call
at all the ale-houses, and bid those that are drunk get them to
bed.
Second Watch - How if they will not?
Dogberry-Why then, let them alone till they are sober; if
they make you not then the better answer, you may say, they
are not the men you took them for.
Second Watch - Well, sir.
Dogberry-If you meet a thief, you may suspect him, by
virtue of your office, to be no true man; and for such kind of
men, the less you meddle or make with them, why, the more is
for your honesty.
Second Watch - If we know him to be a thief, shall we not
lay hands on him?
Dogberry-Truly, by your office you may; but I think, they
that touch pitch will be defiled.
