"Marry hang you!"

This is found in Pericles 4.6.142 as the bawd is disgusted with Marina.

Marina has now totally frustrated her by now, and I can just imagine the bawd screaming "Marry hang you!" The footnote says that it means "Get over it!" Which leads me to believe, the bawd wants Marina to get off her high horse (get over herself or give up) and quit running her customers away. I just thought it was a funny way to say get over it.
