Biondello

I cannot tell, except they are busied about a
counterfeit assurance. Take you assurance of her, cum     
privilegio ad imprimendum solem. To the church take the        
priest, clerk, and some sufficient honest witnesses. If
this be not that you look for, I have no more to say but     
bid Bianca farewell for ever and a day. [Starts to leave]

Lucentio

Biondello

I cannot tarry. I knew a wench married in an    
afternoon as she went to the garden for parsley to stuff
a rabbit, and so may you, sir; and so, adieu, sir. My
master hath appointed me to go to Saint Luke's to bid

It shall go hard if Cambio go without her.    
[Exit]
