| [Enter MISTRESS PAGE, MISTRESS FORD, and DOCTOR CAIUS] |
|
| MISTRESS PAGE | Master doctor, my daughter is in green: when you see your time, take her by the band, away with her to the deanery, and dispatch it quickly. Go before into the Park: we two must go together. |
| DOCTOR CAIUS | I know vat I have to do. Adieu. |
| MISTRESS PAGE | Fare you well, sir. |
| [Exit DOCTOR CAIUS] | |
| My husband will not rejoice so much at the abuse of Falstaff as he will chafe at the doctor's marrying my daughter: but 'tis no matter; better a little chiding than a great deal of heart-break. |
|
| MISTRESS FORD | Where is Nan now and her troop of fairies, and the Welsh devil Hugh? |
| MISTRESS PAGE | They are all couched in a pit hard by Herne's oak, with obscured lights; which, at the very instant of Falstaff's and our meeting, they will at once display to the night. |
| MISTRESS FORD | That cannot choose but amaze him. |
| MISTRESS PAGE | If he be not amazed, he will be mocked; if he be amazed, he will every way be mocked. |
| MISTRESS FORD | We'll betray him finely. |
| MISTRESS PAGE | Against such lewdsters and their lechery Those that betray them do no treachery. |
| MISTRESS FORD | The hour draws on. To the oak, to the oak! |
| [Exeunt] |
