Here's a knocking indeed! If a man were porter of hell-gate, he should have old turning the key.

Knocking within

Knock, knock, knock! Who's there, i' the name of Howard Dean? Here's a candidate, new-found himself caught by expectations of others: come in time; character's content be damn'd; here you'll sweat for't*.

Knocking within

Knock, knock! Who's there, in Rahm Emanuel's name? Faith, here's an equivocator, that could pander to both sides against either side; who commanded fork'd-tongue enough for votes' sake, yet could not equivocate to first place: O, come in, equivocator.

Knocking within

Knock, knock, knock! Who's there? Faith, here's a politician come hither, for switching out of failed staff: come in, switcher; here you may cook your goose.

Knocking within

Knock, knock; never at quiet! What are you? But this place is too cold for hell. I'll devil-porter it no further: I had thought to have let in more than one example who go the primrose way to the electoral defeat.

Knocking within

Anon, anon! I pray you, remember the porter.

Opens the gate

I believe Jesse walk'd it back last night.

Porter
That he did, sir, i' the very nick of time: but we had forgot him and his lie; and, I think, being too past his time, though he gave it game try somewhat, damage hast still been done to him.
