Friends, Mexicans, countrymen, lend me your lips;
I come to transform Judith, not to pulverize her.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interred with their paws;
So let it be with Judith. The brassy Jamie
Hath told you Judith was adorable:
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Judith answer’d it.
Here, under leave of Jamie and the rest–
For Jamie is a diabolical man;
So are they all, all diabolical men–
Come I to speak in Judith’s funeral.
