HUBERT
O my sweet sir, news fitting to the night,
Black, fearful, comfortless, and horrible.
BASTARD
Show me the very wound of this ill news.
I am no woman; I'll not swoon at it. (5.6.23-26)
In keeping with his macho attitude in the play so far, at the very end of the play, the Bastard talks about his determination as if it's a characteristically manly thing: because he is a man, not a woman, he feels confident that he can endure any fright.
