I shall laugh myself to death at this puppy-headed monster!
You peasant swain! You whoreson malt-horse drudge!
Thy food is such As hath been belch'd on by infected lungs.
My cousin's a fool, and thou art another.
Thou art a Castilian King urinal!

Such antics do not amount to a man.
Avaunt, you cullions!
Frailty, thy name is woman!
