For the love of hurt , pardy ! '' `` Nay , '' cried Dick , `` I know not . But as the realm of England goes , if that a poor gentleman fight not upon the one side , perforce he must fight upon the other . He may not stand alone ; 't is not in nature . '' `` They that have no judgment should not draw the sword , '' replied the young lady . `` Ye that fight but for a hazard , what are ye but a butcher ? War is but noble by the cause , and y ' have disgraced it . '' `` Madam , '' said the miserable Dick , `` I do partly see mine error . I have made too much haste ; I have been busy before my time . Already I stole a ship -- thinking , I do swear it , to do well -- and thereby brought about the death of many innocent , and the grief and ruin of a poor old man whose face this very day hath stabbed me like a dagger . And for this morning , I did but design to do myself credit , and get fame to marry with , and , behold ! I have brought about the death of your dear kinsman that was good to me . And what besides , I know not . For , alas ! I may have set York upon the throne , and that may be the worser cause , and may do hurt to England . O , madam , I do see my sin . I am unfit for life . I will , for penance sake and to avoid worse evil , once I have finished this adventure , get me to a cloister . I will forswear Joanna and the trade of arms . I will be a friar , and pray for your good kinsman 's spirit all my days . ''
It appeared to XXXXX , in this extremity of his humiliation and repentance , that the young lady had laughed .
