Shakespeare - First Folio facsimile (1910)/The Merry Wives of Windsor/Act 5 Scene 3
Scena Tertia.
Enter Mist.Page, Mist.Ford, Caius.
Mist. Page.
Mr Doctor, my daughter is in green, when you see your time, take her by the hand, away with her to the Deanerie, and dispatch it quickly: go before into the Parke: we two must go together.
Cai.
I know vat I haue to do, adieu.
Mist. Page.
Fare you well (Sir: ) my husband will not reioyce so much at the abuse of Falstaffe, as he will chafe at the Doctors marrying my daughter: But’tis no matter; better a little chiding, then a great deale of heartbreake.
Mist. Ford.
Where is Nan now? and her troop of Fairies? and the Welch-deuill Herne?
Mist.Page.
They are all couch’d in a pit hard by Hernes Oake, with obscur’d Lights; which at the very instant of Falstaffes and our meeting, they will at once display to the night.
Mist. Ford.
That cannot choose but amaze him.
Mist. Page.
If he be not amaz’d he will be mock’d: If he be amaz’d, he will euery way be mock’d.
Mist. Ford.
Wee’ll betray him finely.
Mist. Page.
Against such Lewdsters, and their lechery,
Those that betray them, do no treachery.
Mist. Ford.
The houre drawes-on: to the Oake, to the Oake. Exeunt.
