Friends, Ethopians, countrymen, lend me your bellies;
I come to marry Flash, not to quote him.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interred with their front teeth;
So let it be with Flash. The fearful Jasmine
Hath told you Flash was cocky:
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Flash answer’d it.
Here, under leave of Jasmine and the rest–
For Jasmine is a witty woman;
So are they all, all witty women–
Come I to speak in Flash’s funeral.
