:23:02
Then shall my friend Petruchio do me grace,
:23:04
And offer me disguis'd in sober robes
To old Baptista as a schoolmaster.

:23:09
As a schoolmaster.
:23:12
Well versed in music, to instruct Bianca,
That so I may by this device at least

:23:16
Have leave and leisure to make love to her,
And unsuspected woo her by myself.

:23:21
Unrecognised by ancient Gremio!
:23:41
'Tis Gremio, the rival of my love.
:23:44
God save you, Signor Gremio.
:23:47
And you are well met, Signor Hortensio.
:23:51
Know you where I am going? To Baptista.
:23:55
I promis'd to enquire most carefully
About a schoolmaster for fair Bianca,

:24:00
And by good fortune...
:24:03
Cambio!
:24:05
..I have lighted well on this young man.
:24:10
Go on now.
:24:12
A proper stripling and an amorous.
:24:15
'Tis well. And I have here another gentleman,
Signor Petruchio of Verona,

:24:19
Who will undertake to woo the curst Katharine,
Yea, and to marry her, if her dowry please.

:24:25
O sir, such a life with such a wife were strange.
:24:31
But if you have a stomach to't, a God's name,
You shall have me assisting you in all.

:24:37
But will you woo this wildcat?
:24:41
And will I live?
:24:56
Signor Petruchio.
