Good grief, Chris, you're right! Although (clutching at straws) I find "this" rather than "that" for the last line.
Later, there is also
Q. Eliz. O! thou didst prophesy the time would come
That I should wish for thee to help me curse
That bottled spider, that foul bunchback’d toad.
My apologies, Mary, for not recognizing the quotation!
Now I'd better go and drown myself in a butt of Malmsey.
