How Panurge consulteth with Friar John of the Funnels1.
Panurge was indeed very much troubled in mind and disquieted2 at the words of Herr Trippa, and therefore, as he passed by the little village of Huymes, after he had made his address to Friar John, in pecking at, rubbing, and scratching his own left ear, he said unto him, Keep me a little jovial3 and merry, my dear and sweet bully4, for I find my brains altogether metagrabolized and confounded, and my spirits in a most dunsical puzzle at the bitter talk of this devilish, hellish, damned fool. Hearken, my dainty cod5.

My harcabuzing cod and buttock-stirring ballock, Friar John, my friend, I do carry a singular respect unto thee, and honour thee with all my heart. Thy counsel I hold for a choice and delicate morsel50; therefore have I reserved it for the last bit. Give me thy advice freely, I beseech51 thee, Should I marry or no? Friar John very merrily, and with a sprightly52 cheerfulness, made this answer to him: Marry, in the devil’s name. Why not? What the devil else shouldst thou do but marry? Take thee a wife, and furbish her harness to some tune53. Swinge her skin-coat as if thou wert beating on stock-fish; and let the repercussion54 of thy clapper from her resounding55 metal make a noise as if a double peal56 of chiming-bells were hung at the cremasters of thy ballocks. As I say marry, so do I understand that thou shouldst fall to work as speedily as may be; yea, my meaning is that thou oughtest to be so quick and forward therein, as on this same very day, before sunset, to cause proclaim thy banns of matrimony, and make provision of bedsteads. By the blood of a hog’s-pudding, till when wouldst thou delay the acting57 of a husband’s part? Dost thou not know, and is it not daily told unto thee, that the end of the world approacheth? We are nearer it by three poles and half a fathom58 than we were two days ago. The Antichrist is already born; at least it is so reported by many. The truth is, that hitherto the effects of his wrath59 have not reached further than to the scratching of his nurse and governesses. His nails are not sharp enough as yet, nor have his claws attained60 to their full growth,— he is little.
Crescat; Nos qui vivimus, multiplicemur.
It is written so, and it is holy stuff, I warrant you; the truth whereof is like to last as long as a sack of corn may be had for a penny, and a puncheon of pure wine for threepence. Wouldst thou be content to be found with thy genitories full in the day of judgment61? Dum venerit judicari? Thou hast, quoth Panurge, a right, clear, and neat spirit, Friar John, my metropolitan62 cod; thou speakst in very deed pertinently63 and to purpose. That belike was the reason which moved Leander of Abydos in Asia, whilst he was swimming through the Hellespontic sea to make a visit to his sweetheart Hero of Sestus in Europe, to pray unto Neptune64 and all the other marine65 gods, thus:
Now, whilst I go, have pity on me,
And at my back returning drown me.
He was loth, it seems, to die with his cods66 overgorged. He was to be commended; therefore do I promise, that from henceforth no malefactor67 shall by justice be executed within my jurisdiction68 of Salmigondinois, who shall not, for a day or two at least before, be permitted to culbut and foraminate onocrotalwise, that there remain not in all his vessels69 to write a Greek Y. Such a precious thing should not be foolishly cast away. He will perhaps therewith beget70 a male, and so depart the more contentedly71 out of this life, that he shall have left behind him one for one.
