SAMSON. Cam'st thou for this, vain boaster, to survey me, To descant on my strength, and give thy verdict ? Come nearer, part not hence so slight informed; But take good heed my hand survey not thee. HARAPIIA. O Baal-zebub ! can my ears unused Hear these dishonours, and not render death ? SAMSON. No man withholds thee, nothing from thy hand S84 SAMSON AGONISTES. Fear I incurable ; bring up thy A^an, My heels are fettered, but my fist is free. IIAEAPIIA. This in-olence other kind of answer fits.... SAMSOX. Go, baffled coward ! lest I run upon thee, Though in these chains, bulk without spirit vas^ And with one buffet lay thy structure low, Or swing thee in the air, then dash thee down To the hazard of thy brains and shattered sides. HARAniA. By Astaroth ! ere long thou shalt lament These braveries in irons loaden on thee. CHORUS. His giantship is gone somewhat crest-fallen, Stalking with less unconscionable strides, And lower looks, but in a sultry chafe. SAMSOX. I dread him not, nor all his giant brood, Though fame divulge him father of five sons.
