MAID
It seems to me
That one of his disciples you must be.
PETER
No, woman, I have never seen this man
Since the world first began.
MAID
You are one of his crew!
By your face I know you.
PETER
Woman, you speak amiss of me! It is not so!
I tell you I do not him know!
SOLDIER
You're the one cut Malchus' ear
When we took him in the garden.
And when we soldiers brought him here
You all forsook and spurned him.
PETER
I do not know him! By him that made me!
If you'll believe me when I do,
I'll swear before this company
That what I say is true!

(The cock crows)
(Horrified reaction from Peter)

From a medieval mystery play.
