As You Like It — Act 4 Scene 2

Iaq.Which is he that killed the Deare?

Lord.Sir, it was I.

Iaq.Let's present him to the Duke like a Romane Conquerour, and it would doe well to set the Deares horns vpon his head, for a branch of victory; haue you no song Forrester for this purpose?

Lord.Yes Sir.

Iaq.Sing it: 'tis no matter how it bee in tune, so it make noyse enough.

Musicke, Song.

What shall he haue that kild the Deare?His Leather skin, and hornes to weare:Then sing him home, the rest shall beare this burthen;Take thou no scorne to weare the horne,It was a crest ere thou wast borne,Thy fathers father wore it,And thy father bore it,The horne, the horne, the lusty horne,Is not a thing to laugh to scorne.

Exeunt.
