Taming of the Shrew
[I, 1]

Christopher Sly

546

Yes, by Saint Anne do I. A good matter, surely; comes there
any more of it?

Taming of the Shrew
[IV, 2]

Hortensio

1861

Would all the world but he had quite forsworn!
For me, that I may surely keep mine oath,
I will be married to a wealtlly widow
Ere three days pass, which hath as long lov'd me
As I have lov'd this proud disdainful haggard.
And so farewell, Signior Lucentio.
Kindness in women, not their beauteous looks,
Shall win my love; and so I take my leave,
In resolution as I swore before. Exit

Taming of the Shrew
[IV, 2]

Biondello

1893

Master, a mercatante or a pedant,
I know not what; but formal in apparel,
In gait and countenance surely like a father.
