I'm rereading the little known Pericles, Prince of Tyre for my Shakespeare class, and when I got to the part with the pirates I was slightly disappointed. Not only were they onstage for only 3 lines and did not knock out the bad guy (bad guy ran away and hid), but they don't yell "Booty."
They do yell something close though, "A prize, a prize!"
I guess I've absorbed too much "Compleat Wrks of Wllm Shkspre, Abridged"
