Why will you mew her up,
Signior Baptista, for this fiend of hell,
And make her bear the penance of her tongue?

Katherina

871

What, will you not suffer me? Nay, now I see
She is your treasure, she must have a husband;
I must dance bare-foot on her wedding-day,
And for your love to her lead apes in hell.
Talk not to me; I will go sit and weep,
Till I can find occasion of revenge. Exit KATHERINA
