The former part of your head.
_Scil_. The former part of your head! why I hope I have not an occiput,
in the former part of my head. Signior _Servulus_, what meanes he by it?
_Serv_. The signification of the word only amounts to this, the former
part of your head.
_Accut_. The foole is jealious, prethee feede it.
_Scil_. S'lid, I cannot be so sussified; I pray you, Segnior, what
meanes he by _occiput_?
_Grac_. No hurt, verily, onely the word signifies, and the reason is,
saith _Varro_, being a great deriver from originals, it is called
_occiput_ for that the former part of the head looks likest the Oxe.
_Scil_. Likest the Oxe, by gad, if ere I come to talke with that
_Varro_, ile make him show a better reason for it.
_Grac_. But, howsoever, it proceeded from me all in kindenes.
_Scil_. Sir, I accept it so, for I tell ye I am of a mollifying nature.
I can strut and againe in kindnesse I can suffer a man to breake my
head, and put it up without anger.
_Accut_. I claime that priviledge, sir, I thinke I offended you once
that way.
