Trinculo, if you trouble him any more in's tale, by

37

III,2,1502

38

III,2,1507

Give me thy hand: I am sorry I beat thee; but,
while thou livest, keep a good tongue in thy head.

if thou beest a devil, take't as thou list.

for my labour.

that gown.

IV,1,1982

I thank thee for that jest; here's a garment for't:
wit shall not go unrewarded while I am king of this...

IV,1,1991

Monster, lay-to your fingers: help to bear this
away where my hogshead of wine is, or I'll turn you...
