  The speech of this fantastic figure was received with an
explosion of jeers and laughter.  Some cried, Tis another prince in
disguise! Ware thy tongue, friend:  belike he is dangerous!
  Marry, he looketh it--mark his eye!  Pluck the lad from him--to the
horse-pond wi the cub!

Instantly a hand was laid upon the Prince, under the impulse of this
happy thought; as instantly the strangers long sword was out and the
meddler went to the earth under a sounding thump with the flat of it.
