Shall overcome! Hear you this Triton of the minnows? Mark you her absolute 'shall'? 'Shall'! O good but most unwise patricians! why, you grave but reckless senators, have you thus given Hydra here to choose an officer, that with her peremptory 'shall,' being but the horn and noise o' the monster's, wants not spirit to say she'll turn your current in a ditch, and make your channel his? If she have power then vail your ignorance; if none, awake your dangerous lenity. ...
They choose their magistrate, and such a one as she, who puts her 'shall,' her popular 'shall' against a graver bench than ever frown in Greece. Though there the people had more absolute power, I say, they nourish'd disobedience, fed the ruin of the state. How shall this bisson multitude digest The senate's courtesy? Thus we debase the nature of our seats and make the rabble call our cares fears; which will in time break ope the locks o' the senate and bring in The crows to peck the eagles.
Therefore, beseech you that will be less fearful than discreet, that love the fundamental part of state more than you doubt the change on't, that prefer a noble life before a long, and wish to jump a body with a dangerous physic that's sure of death without it, at once pluck out the multitudinous tongue; let them not lick the sweet which is their poison!
