 4.2.0.12125[4.2]
 4.2.0.22126Enter Jaques and Lords, [outfitted as] foresters.
 4.2.12127Jaques
 Which is he that killed the deer?
 4.2.22128First Lord
 Sir, it was I.
 4.2.32129Jaques
 Let's present him to the Duke, like a Roman conqueror; 2130and it would do well to set the deer's 2131horns upon his head for a branch of victory. Have you 2132no song, forester, for this purpose?
 4.2.42133Second Lord
 Yes, sir.
 4.2.52134Jaques
 Sing it. 'Tis no matter how it be in tune, so it 2135make noise enough.
 2136Music.
 Song.
 4.2.62137Second Lord
 [Sings]
 What shall he have that killed the deer?
 4.2.72138His leather skin and horns to wear.
 4.2.82139 Then sing him home.
 (The rest shall bear this burden:)
 4.2.92140Take thou no scorn to wear the horn;
 4.2.102141It was a crest ere thou wast born.
 4.2.112142 Thy father's father wore it;
 4.2.122143 And thy father bore it.
 (The rest shall bear this burden:)
 4.2.132144The horn, the horn, the lusty horn,
 4.2.142145Is not a thing to laugh to scorn.
 Exeunt.
