I think it just refused to run because it won't stand for you promulgating

William Shakespeare: The Life and Death of King Richard III
ACT I.
3. SCENE III. London. A Room in the Palace. (continued)
[ ... ]
FIRST MURDERER.
Tut, tut, my lord, we will not stand to prate;
Talkers are no good doers: be assur'd
We go to use our hands, and not our tongues.
GLOSTER.
Your eyes drop millstones when fools' eyes fall tears:
I like you, lads;--about your business straight;
Go, go, despatch.
FIRST MURDERER.
We will, my noble lord.
[Exeunt.]
cheers,
DaveK [exeunt stage left pursued by an OT tag!]
