"I mean, sir, for his weapon; but in the imputation laid on him by them, in his meed he's unfellowed".

Hamlet
"What's his weapon?"

Osric
"Rapier and dagger."

Hamlet
"That's two of his weapons: but, well."

Osric
"The king, sir, hath wagered with him six Barbary horses: against the which he has imponed, as I take it, six French rapiers and poniards, with their assigns, as girdle, hangers, and so: three of the carriages, in faith, are very dear to fancy, very responsive to the hilts, most delicate carriages, and of very liberal conceit."

Hamlet
What call you the carriages?

Horatio
I knew you must be edified by the margent ere you had done.

Osric
The carriages, sir, are the hangers.

Hamlet
The phrase would be more german to the matter, if we could carry cannon by our sides: I would it might be hangers till then. But, on: six Barbary horses against six French swords, their assigns, and three liberal-conceited carriages; that's the French bet against the Danish. Why is this 'imponed,' as you call it?

Osric
The king, sir, hath laid, that in a dozen passes between yourself and him, he shall not exceed you three hits: he hath laid on twelve for nine; and it would come to immediate trial, if your lordship would vouchsafe the answer.

Hamlet
How if I answer 'no?
