The Works of William Shakespeare [Cambridge Edition] [Vol. 3 of 9]
Shakespeare, William
English drama
_Tra._ So could I, faith, boy, to have the next wish after,
That Lucentio indeed had Baptista's youngest daughter.
But, sirrah, not for my sake, but your master's, I advise 235
You use your manners discreetly in all kind of companies:
When I am alone, why, then I am Tranio;
But in all places else your master Lucentio.
_Luc._ Tranio, let's go: one thing more rests, that thyself
execute, to make one among these wooers: if thou ask 240
me why, sufficeth, my reasons are both good and weighty.
[_Exeunt._
_The presenters above speak._
_First Serv._ My lord, you nod; you do not mind the play.
_Sly._ Yes, by Saint Anne, do I. A good matter, surely:
comes there any more of it?
_Page._ My lord, 'tis but begun. 245
_Sly._ 'Tis a very excellent piece of work, madam lady:
would 'twere done! [_They sit and mark._
