O thou filthie wretch! Thou has bespawned thi king with pestilence! God have mercy on us! Thou cursed knave, to bring the black death upon thy sovereign! May the Lord strike thee down for this treachery! Take him away—let him perish with the rest of the unclean! By God’s blood, thy soul shall fry in hell ere thy vile body cools! Avaunt, plague-beast! Thou hast brought mortality upon me! Guards! Cast this dog into the deepest ditch and burn the clothes from my back! Thy treachery shall cost thee more than thy life! Be gone to the fire!
