MERCUTIO: ‘Tis no less, I tell you, for the bawdy hand of the dial is now upon the prick of noon.
NURSE: Out upon you! what a man are you!
– William Shakespeare
Romeo and Juliet, Act 2, Scene 4. Mercutio engages in inappropriate behavior towards an older woman he doesn’t know, Juliet’s Nurse, when he makes this off-color joke. He is responding to the Nurse’s question about whether or not it is a good day. The Nurse is horrified at his double entendre and sexual puns. The round dial is a pun for the female genitalia, while the the hand standing straight at the "prick" of 12 o’clock is a double entendre for the erect male penis.
