I should, My Lord, by courtesy explain, that should I wear a feather in my 
cap, it's hue would not be azure, but instead would match whate'er gown I 
chose to wear.  I should not wish down garden path to lead someone of such 
fine wit as that thou hast, but make it clear that here wit's all I wish, and 
dancing's something I would share withall, although I should then take no 
further steps....
