Go into Troy, and say there, Hector's dead :
That is a word will Priam turn to ftone ;
Make welling Niobes of the maids and wives;
Cold ftatues of the youth; and, in a word,

Brethren and fifters of the hold-door trade, Some two months hence my will fhall here be made. It should be now; but that my fear is this, Some galled goofe of Winchester would hifs; Till then, I'll fweat, and feek about for eafes; And at that time bequeath you my diseases.
