Knock Monologue from Bartholomew Fair

From Bartholomew Fair by Ben Jonson

male · comedic · 40 sec

Gentlewomen, the weather's hot; whither walk you? have a care of your fine velvet caps, the Fair is dusty. Take a sweet delicate booth, with boughs, here in the way, and cool yourselves in the shade; you and your friends. The best pig and bottle-ale in the Fair, sir. Old Ursula is cook, there you may read; the pig's head speaks it. Poor soul, she has had a string-halt, the maryhinchco; but she's prettily amended.
