Friends, Nepalese, countrymen, lend me your lips;
I come to surprise Cody, not to stop him.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interred with their belly buttons;
So let it be with Cody. The rude Melkadas
Hath told you Cody was obese:
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Cody answer’d it.
Here, under leave of Melkadas and the rest–
For Melkadas is a loving woman;
So are they all, all loving women–
Come I to speak in Cody’s funeral.
