Magic Shake-Ball

QUESTION FOR MAGIC SHAKE-BALL:

When the [expletive] is this snow gonna melt?

MAGIC SHAKE-BALL'S RESPONSE:

The red wine must first rise
In their fair cheeks, my lord; then we shall have 'em
Talk us to silence.
--Henry VIII, 1.4.53-5

INTERPRETATION:

The red wine has already risen in many a fat cheek, Shake-Ball. And there's been plenty of talking, too. And yelling and screaming, etc. Don't you remember the three days we spent trapped in the house?
