TRANIO: |
'Tis some odd humour pricks him to this fashion; |
Yet oftentimes he goes but mean-apparell'd. |
BAPTISTA: |
I am glad he's come, howsoe'er he comes. |
BIONDELLO: |
Why, sir, he comes not. |
BAPTISTA: |
Didst thou not say he comes? |
BIONDELLO: |
Who? that Petruchio came? |
BAPTISTA: |
Ay, that Petruchio came. |
BIONDELLO: |
No, sir, I say his horse comes, with him on his back. |
BAPTISTA: |
Why, that's all one. |
BIONDELLO: |
Nay, by Saint Jamy, |
I hold you a penny, |
A horse and a man |
Is more than one, |
And yet not many. |
PETRUCHIO: |
Come, where be these gallants? who's at home? |
BAPTISTA: |
You are welcome, sir. |
PETRUCHIO: |
And yet I come not well. |
BAPTISTA: |
And yet you halt not. |
TRANIO: |
Not so well apparell'd |
As I wish you were. |
PETRUCHIO: |
Were it better, I should rush in thus. |
But where is Kate? where is my lovely bride? |
How does my father? Gentles, methinks you frown: |
And wherefore gaze this goodly company, |
As if they saw some wondrous monument, |
Some comet or unusual prodigy? |
BAPTISTA: |
Why, sir, you know this is your wedding-day: |
First were we sad, fearing you would not come; |
Now sadder, that you come so unprovided. |
Fie, doff this habit, shame to your estate, |
An eye-sore to our solemn festival! |
TRANIO: |
And tells us, what occasion of import |
Hath all so long detain'd you from your wife, |
And sent you hither so unlike yourself? |
PETRUCHIO: |
Tedious it were to tell, and harsh to hear: |
Sufficeth I am come to keep my word, |
Though in some part enforced to digress; |
Which, at more leisure, I will so excuse |
As you shall well be satisfied withal. |
But where is Kate? I stay too long from her: |
The morning wears, 'tis time we were at church. |
TRANIO: |
See not your bride in these unreverent robes: |
Go to my chamber; Put on clothes of mine. |
PETRUCHIO: |
Not I, believe me: thus I'll visit her. |
BAPTISTA: |
But thus, I trust, you will not marry her. |
PETRUCHIO: |
Good sooth, even thus; therefore ha' done with words: |
To me she's married, not unto my clothes: |
Could I repair what she will wear in me, |
As I can change these poor accoutrements, |
'Twere well for Kate and better for myself. |
But what a fool am I to chat with you, |
When I should bid good morrow to my bride, |
And seal the title with a lovely kiss! |
TRANIO: |
He hath some meaning in his mad attire: |
Subsets and Splits
