BOTTOMThere are things in this comedy of Pyramus and Thisby that will never please. First, Pyramus must draw a sword to kill himself; which the ladiescannot abide. How answer you that? S N O U T By'r lakin, a parlous fear. S T A R V E L I N G I believe we must leave the killing out, when all is done. B O T T O M Not a whit: I have a device to make all well. Write me a prologue; and let the prologue seem tosay, we will do no harm with our swords, and that Pyramus is not killed indeed; and, for the morebetter assurance, tell them that I, Pyramus, am not Pyramus, but Bottom the weaver: this will put themout of fear. Q U I N C E Well, we will have such a prologue; and it shall bewritten in eight and six. B O T T O M No, make it two more; let it be written in eight and eight. William Shakespeare
