Baptista

Gentlemen, importune me no farther,    
For how I firmly am resolved you know —    
That is not to bestow my youngest daughter
Before I have a husband for the elder.
If either of you both love Katherina —   
Because I know you well and love you well —
Leave shall you have to court her at your pleasure.
