PAGE.
Not by my consent, I promise you. The gentleman is of no having. He kept company with the wild Prince and Poins. He is of too high a region, he knows too much. No, he shall not knit a knot in his fortunes with the finger of my substance. If he take her, let him take her simply. The wealth I have waits on my consent, and my consent goes not that way.
FORD.
I beseech you, heartily, some of you go home with me to dinner. Besides your cheer, you shall have sport: I will show you a monster. Master Doctor, you shall go; so shall you, Master Page, and you, Sir Hugh.
SHALLOW.
Well, fare you well. We shall have the freer wooing at Master Page’s.
[Exeunt Shallow and Slender.]
CAIUS
Go home, John Rugby; I come anon.
[Exit Rugby.]
HOST
Farewell, my hearts. I will to my honest knight Falstaff, and drink canary with him.
[Exit Host.]
FORD
[Aside.] I think I shall drink in pipe-wine first with him; I’ll make him dance.—Will you go, gentles?
ALL.
Have with you to see this monster.
