Mercutio

No, 'tis not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a church
door; but 'tis enough, 'twill serve. Ask for me tomorrow,
and you shall find me a grave man. I am peppered,
I warrant, for this world. A plague o' both your houses!
'Zounds, a dog, a rat, a mouse, a cat, to scratch a man  
to death. A braggart, a rogue, a villain, that fights by
the book of arithmetic! [To Romeo] Why the devil
came you between us? I was hurt under your arm.
