| ACT IV SCENE II | The forest. | |
| | Enter JAQUES, Lords, and Foresters | |
| JAQUES | Which is he that killed the deer? | |
| A Lord | Sir, it was I. | |
| JAQUES | Let's present him to the duke, like a Roman | |
| | conqueror; and it would do well to set the deer's | 5 |
| | horns upon his head, for a branch of victory. Have | |
| | you no song, forester, for this purpose? | |
| Forester | Yes, sir. | |
| JAQUES | Sing it: 'tis no matter how it be in tune, so it | |
| | make noise enough. | 10 |
| | | |
| | SONG. | |
| Forester | What shall he have that kill'd the deer? | |
| | His leather skin and horns to wear. | |
| | Then sing him home; | 15 |
| | The rest shall bear this burden | |
| | Take thou no scorn to wear the horn; | |
| | It was a crest ere thou wast born: | |
| | Thy father's father wore it, | |
| | And thy father bore it: | |
| | The horn, the horn, the lusty horn | 20 |
| | Is not a thing to laugh to scorn. | |
| | Exeunt | |
