QUOTES FROM THE BARD
PLAY: King Henry IV Part 2
ACT/SCENE: 5.3
SPEAKER: Falstaff
CONTEXT:
Come, Pistol, utter more to me, and withal devise something to do thyself good. Boot, boot, Master Shallow. I know the young King is sick for me. Let us take any man’s horses. The laws of England are at my commandment. Blessed are they that have been my friends, and woe to my Lord Chief Justice!
DUTCH:
Laten wij paarden nemen, waar wij ze vinden; de wetten van Engeland staan mij ten bevele. Wel hun, die mijn vrienden waren, en wee den lord opperrechter!
MORE:
“Let us take any man’s horses. The laws of England are at my commandment. ” Falstaff is abusing the right of ‘purveying’ here.
Topics: caution, status, value, law/legal
