[The road from Verona to Padua. Enter Petruchio, Katherina, and Hortensio on their way to Signor Baptista’s house.]

Come on, i' God's name, once more toward our father's.

Good Lord, how bright and goodly shines the moon!

The moon? The sun — it is not moonlight now.

I say it is the moon that shines so bright.

I know it is the sun that shines so bright.

Now, by my mother's son — and that's myself —

It shall be moon, or star, or what I list,

Or e’er I journey to your father's house.
