ANNE PAGE.
[MERRY WIVES OF WINDSOR, Act I. Scene 1.]
Anne. Will't please your worship to come in, sir.
Slen. No, I thank you, forsooth, heartily ; I am very
well.
Anne. The dinner attends you, sir.
Slen. I am not a-hungry, I thank you, forsooth. Go,
sirrah, for all you are my man, go, wait upon my cousin
Shallow : [Exit Simple.'] A justice of peace sometime may
be beholden to his friend for a man. I keep but three
men and a boy yet, till my mother be dead : But what
though ? yet I live like a poor gentleman born.
Anne. I may not go in without your worship : they will
not sit till you come.
KATHARINA.
[TAMING OF THE SHREW, Act II. Scene 1.]
Pet. I pray you do, I will attend her here,
And woo her with some spirit when she comes.
Say, that she rail, why, then I'll tell her plain,
She sings as sweetly as a nightingale ;
Say, that she frown, I'll say, she looks as clear
As morning roses newly wash'd with dew ;
Say, she be mute, and will not speak a word,
Then, I'll commend her volubility,
