Gentle ladies, gentlemen, waiting 'till the dance begins, carefully we come to speak a word for all to hear. If you listen - if you should - we won't be misunderstood but don't expect the words to ring too sweetly on the ear. Live in fear.

When he doth speak, hold thee still,

When he hath done, say for thy will,

In thy speech that thou be discreet,

And what thou sayest consider thee well;

But deprive thou not him his tale,

Neither at the wine nor at the ale.
