Betake - Old English, 14th Century.
They probably meant to say "Betake thyself, thy vessel and thy crew henceforth and forthwith, hastily minded thee, and insert an aegent into the hinter parts of thine enemy's a-rears..." "Hast thou perchance, seen a man with six digits upon his left hand?"...
I'm sorry, won't happen again...
