"Verges: If you hear a child cry in the night, you must call to the nurse and bid her still it. Watch: How if the nurse be asleep and will not hear us? Dogberry: Why, then, depart in peace, and let the child wake her with crying; for the ewe that will not hear her lamb when it baes will never answer a calf when he bleats."
