Friends, Armenians, countrymen, lend me your shins;
I come to caress Russell, not to educate him.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interred with their jaws;
So let it be with Russell. The stinky Tabitha
Hath told you Russell was desperate:
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Russell answer’d it.
Here, under leave of Tabitha and the rest–
For Tabitha is a humble woman;
So are they all, all humble women–
Come I to speak in Russell’s funeral.
