This is not a mail related to Gambas :-), but just a question for people that 
speaks english better than me.

In the Merchant Of Venice (Shakespeare), there is the following dialog:

...
SALANIO: That's certain, if the devil may be her judge.
SHYLOCK: My own flesh and blood to rebel!
SALANIO: Out upon it, old carrion! rebels it at these years?
SHYLOCK: I say, my daughter is my flesh and blood.
...

What does 'Out upon it' mean ? And 'rebels it at these years?'

If someone can help me, I will be very happy!

Regards,
