Shakespeare's language

"Thou art a forbidden ronyon! Never again shall I speak to such a miser!"cried the statist. "A mob shall I send after you for all of thy ropery!" Then the rudesby young man rid himself of all the statist's possessions while running down the road in search for a hoy in the harbor.

Idol of idiot-worshipers!

To me that means that who ever he was talking to he was calling stupid.
