A street leading to the Park
Enter MISTRESS PAGE, MISTRESS FORD, and DOCTOR CAIUSMRS.PAGE.Master Doctor, my daughter is in green; when you see your time, take her by the hand, away with her to the deanery, and dispatch it quickly.Go before into the Park; we two must go together.CAIUS.I know vat I have to do; adieu.MRS.PAGE.Fare you well, sir.[Exit 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 heartbreak.MRS.FORD.Where is Nan now, and her troop of fairies, and the Welsh devil, Hugh? MRS.PAGE.They are all couch'd in a pit hard by Herne's oak, with obscur'd lights; which, at the very instant of Falstaff's and our meeting, they will at once display to the night.MRS.FORD.That cannot choose but amaze him.MRS.PAGE.If he be not amaz'd, he will be mock'd; if he be amaz'd, he will every way be mock'd.MRS.FORD.We'll betray him finely.MRS.PAGE.Against such lewdsters and their lechery, Those that betray them do no treachery.MRS.FORD.The hour draws on.To the oak, to the oak!
