KATHERINA.
I dare assure you, sir, ’tis almost two,
And ’twill be supper-time ere you come there.
PETRUCHIO.
It shall be seven ere I go to horse.
Look what I speak, or do, or think to do,
You are still crossing it. Sirs, let ’t alone:
I will not go today; and ere I do,
It shall be what o’clock I say it is.
HORTENSIO.
Why, so this gallant will command the sun.
[Exeunt.]
SCENE IV. Padua. Before Baptista’s house.
Enter Tranio and the Pedant dressed like Vincentio
TRANIO.
Sir, this is the house; please it you that I call?
PEDANT.
Ay, what else? and, but I be deceived,
Signior Baptista may remember me,
Near twenty years ago in Genoa,
Where we were lodgers at the Pegasus.
TRANIO.
’Tis well; and hold your own, in any case,
With such austerity as ’longeth to a father.
PEDANT.
I warrant you. But, sir, here comes your boy;
’Twere good he were school’d.
