my dwelling Pisa.
1:38:06
Pisa, renowned for grave citizens,
1:38:09
And bound I am to Padua, there to visit
A son of mine, who long I have not seen.

1:38:14
He studies at the university -
His name is called Lucentio!

1:38:20
- Master.
- Biondello...

1:38:22
Shh.
1:38:24
Softly and swiftly, sir,
1:38:26
For even now the priest is marrying Hortensio
To the lusty widow of his choice,

1:38:30
And, once the church is emptied, hath agreed
To marry you in secret to your mistress.

1:38:45
We fly, Biondello.
1:39:00
Tell me, kind sir,
is this the house of one Lucentio?

1:39:03
Ay, but they are busy within
arguing over dowries.

1:39:08
You'd best knock louder.
1:39:15
Who's he that knocks
as he would beat down the door?

1:39:21
Is Signor Lucentio within, sir?
1:39:24
He's within, sir, but not to be spoken to withal.
1:39:28
I pray you tell Signor Lucentio that his father
is here at the door to speak with him.

1:39:36
Thou liest.
1:39:39
His father is here looking out at the window.
1:39:43
- Thou? His father?
- Ay, sir, so his mother says,

1:39:47
if I may believe her.
1:39:50
Why, how now, old gentleman!
1:39:52
This is flat knavery,
to take upon yourself another man's name.

1:39:56
Lay hands on the villain.
1:39:58
I believe he means to cheat somebody
in this city under my countenance.
