FORD.
The children must
Be practised well to this, or they’ll ne’er do ’t.
EVANS.
I will teach the children their behaviours, and I will be like a jackanapes also, to burn the knight with my taber.
FORD.
That will be excellent. I’ll go buy them vizards.
MISTRESS PAGE.
My Nan shall be the queen of all the fairies,
Finely attired in a robe of white.
PAGE.
That silk will I go buy.
[Aside.] And in that time
Shall Master Slender steal my Nan away,
And marry her at Eton.—Go, send to Falstaff straight.
FORD.
Nay, I’ll to him again in name of Brook.
He’ll tell me all his purpose. Sure, he’ll come.
MISTRESS PAGE.
Fear not you that. Go, get us properties
And tricking for our fairies.
EVANS.
Let us about it. It is admirable pleasures and fery honest knaveries.
[Exeunt Page, Ford and Evans.]
MISTRESS PAGE.
Go, Mistress Ford.
Send quickly to Sir John to know his mind.
