You are an ass head and a coxcomb, and a knave, a thin-faced knave, a gull.
Thought this was kind of wierd at first, but then I read what it meant and thought it was kind of cool. here's what it means.
A coxcomb, meaning cockerel's crest, was worn on the hat of fools in Shakespeare's time. Knave means rogue, untrustworthy person, with a hint that the person is lower class - a bit like today's 'chav'. Gull meant someone who was easily taken in, similar to the term 'mark' as used by con men today.
Well there you go that is my favorite for all the Shakespeare insults that I have heard. If you liked it comment or if you don't like it comment. It doesn't matter.
