In good sadness Sir, I am sorry, that for my sake you have suffered all this. My suit then is desperate: You'll undertake her no more? Master Broome: I will be thrown into Esta, as I have been into Thames, ere I will leave her thus; her Husband is this morning gone a Birding, I have received from her another embassy of meeting; 'twixt eight and nine is the hour (Master Broome.) 'Tis past eight already Sir, Is it? I will then address me to my appointment; Come to me at your convenient leisure, and you shall know how I speed: and the conclusion shall be crowned with your enjoying her: adieu; you shall have her (Master Broome) Master Broome, you shall cuckold Ford. Hum: ha'? Is this a vision? Is this a dream? Do I sleep? Master Ferd awake, awake Master Ford▪ there's a hole made in your best coat (Master Ford:) this 'tis to be married; this 'tis to have linen, and Buck-baskets: Well, I will proclaim myself what I am▪ I will now take the lecher; he is at my house; he cannot scape me; 'tis impossible he should: he cannot creep into a halfpenny purse, not into a Pepper-Boxe. But lest the devil that guides him, should aid him, I will search impossible places: though what I am, I cannot avoid; yet to be what I would not, shall not make me tame; If I have horns, to make one mad, let the proverb go with me, i'll be horn-mad. Is he at M. Fords already thinkest thou? Sure he is by this; or will be presently; but truly he is very courageous mad, about his throwing into the water. Mistress Ford desires you to come suddenly. I'll be with her by and by; i'll but bring my youngman here to school; look where his Master comes; 'tis a playing day I see: how now Sir Hugh, no school to day? No, Master Slender is let the boys leave to play. Blessing of his heart. Sir Hugh, my husband says my son profits nothing in the world at his book; I pray you ask him some questions in his Accidence. Come hither William; hold up your head; come. Come-on sirrah; hold up your head; answer your Master, be not afraid. William, how many Numbers is in nouns? Two. Truly, I thought there had been one Number more, because they say od's-Nownes. Peace, your tattlings. What is (fair) William? Pulcher. Powlcats? there are fairer things than Powlcat, sure. You are a very simplicity o'man; I pray you peace. What is (Lapis) William? A Stone. And what is a Stone (William?) A Peeble. No; it is Lapis; I pray you remember in your brain. Lapis. That is a good William; what is he (William) that does lend Articles: Articles are borrowed of the pronoun; and be thus declined▪ Singulariter nominativo hic haec, hoc.
