:12:00
O, Tranio, thou may'st hear a goddess speak.
:12:05
Go in, Bianca.
:12:07
O, no! Why, will you lock her up,
Signor Baptista, for this fiend of hell,
:12:12
And make her bear the penance of her tongue?
:12:15
- Gentlemen, content ye. I am resolv'd.
- But...
:12:17
And for I know she taketh most delight
ln music, instruments, and poetry,
:12:23
Schoolmasters will I keep within my house
Fit to instruct her youth.
:12:27
If you, Hortensio, or Signor Gremio, you,
Know any such, conduct them hither;
:12:31
for to schoolmasters I will be very kind.
And so farewell.
:12:39
- Fiend of hell!
- Schoolmasters...
:12:44
If you love the maid,
Bend thoughts and wits to achieve her.
:12:48
Thus it stands:
Her elder sister is so curst and shrewd
:12:52
That till the father rids his hands of her,
Master, your love must lie a maid at home.
:12:56
Ah, Tranio, what a cruel father's he!
:13:03
But... art thou not advis'd he took some care
:13:06
To get her cunning schoolmasters
to instruct her?
:13:09
I have it, Tranio.
:13:11
By my hand, Master,
Both our inventions meet and jump in one.
:13:14
Shh!
:13:16
You will be the schoolmaster,
And undertake the teaching of the maid.
:13:20
We have not yet been seen in any house,
:13:22
Nor can we be distinguish'd by our faces
For man or master.
:13:27
Then it follows thus:
:13:29
Rhou shalt be master, Tranio, in my stead,
And be in Padua here Vincentio's son.
:13:34
I am content to be Lucentio,
Because so well I love Lucentio.
:13:38
Keep house, and port, and servants,
as I should;
:13:41
And introduce me as a schoolmaster,
Fit to instruct Baptista's youngest daughter.
:13:48
'Tis hatch'd, and shall be so.
:13:50
Shh.
:13:57
You...!
