Friends, Nepalese, countrymen, lend me your lungs;
I come to question Mackenzie, not to bond with her.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interred with their larynxes;
So let it be with Mackenzie. The cocky Bruce
Hath told you Mackenzie was undignified:
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Mackenzie answer’d it.
Here, under leave of Bruce and the rest–
For Bruce is a sassy man;
So are they all, all sassy men–
Come I to speak in Mackenzie’s funeral.
