[ I. 2 Scene II. The same.]
Enter Sir Hugh Evans and Simple.
Evans. Go your ways, and ask of Doctor Caius’ house which is the way: and there dwells one Mistress Quickly, which is in the manner of his nurse, or his [dry] nurse, or his cook, or his laundry, his washer, and his [wringer].
5 Sim. Well, sir.
Evans. Nay, it is petter yet. Give her this letter; for it is a ’oman that altogether’s acquaintance with Mistress Anne Page: and the letter is, to desire and require her to solicit your master’s desires to Mistress Anne Page. I 10 pray you, be gone: I will make an end of my dinner; there’s pippins and [cheese] to come.
Exeunt.
