know you well and love you well, Leave shall you have to court her at your pleasure. To cart her rather: she's too rough for me. There, There, Hortensio, will you any wife? I pray you, sir, is it your will To make a stale of me amongst these mates? Mates, maid! how mean you that? no mates for you, Unless you were of gentler, milder mould. I'faith, sir, you shall never need to fear: I wis it is not half way to her heart; But if it were, doubt not her care should be To comb your noddle with a three-legg'd stool And paint your face and use you like a fool. From all such devils, good Lord deliver us! And me too, good Lord! Hush, master! here's some good pastime toward: That wench is stark mad or wonderful froward. But in the other's silence do I see Maid's mild behavior and sobriety. Peace, Tranio! Well said, master; mum! and gaze your fill. Gentlemen, that I may soon make good What I have said, Bianca, get you in: And let it not displease thee, good Bianca, For I will love thee ne'er the less, my girl. A pretty peat! it is best Put finger in the eye, an she knew why. Sister, content you in my discontent. Sir, to your pleasure humbly I subscribe: My books and instruments shall be my company, On them to took and practise by myself. Hark, Tranio! thou may'st hear Minerva speak. Signior Baptista, will you be so strange? Sorry am I that our good will effects Bianca's grief. Why will you mew her up, Signior Baptista, for this fiend of hell, And make her bear the penance of her tongue? Gentlemen, content ye; I am resolved: Go in, Bianca: And for I know she taketh most delight In music, instruments and poetry, Schoolmasters will I keep within my house, Fit to instruct her youth. If you, Hortensio, Or Signior Gremio, you, know any such, Prefer them hither; for to cunning men I will be very kind, and liberal To mine own children in good bringing up: And so farewell. Katharina, you may stay; For I have more to commune with Bianca. Why, and I trust I may go too, may I not? What, shall I be appointed hours; as though, belike, I knew not what to take and what to leave, ha? You may go to the devil's dam: your gifts are so good, here's none will hold you. Their love is not so great,
