Act 1, scene 2 (3rd)
Storyboard Text
- And therefore, if thou know One rich enough to be Petruchio’s wife, As wealth is burden of my wooing dance, Be she as foul as was Florentius' love, As old as Sibyl
- She moves me not, or not removes at least Affection’s edge in me, were she as rough As are the swelling Adriatic seas.I come to wive it wealthily in Padua; If wealthily, then happily in Padua.
- Petruchio, shall I then come roundly to thee And wish thee to a shrewd, ill-favored wife?Thou’dst thank me but a little for my counsel; And yet I’ll promise thee she shall be rich, And very rich. But thou'rt too much my friend, And I’ll not wish thee to her.
- Nay, look you, sir, he tells you flatlywhat his mind is. Why, nothing comesamiss, so money comes withal.
- Petruchio, since we are stepped thus far in, I will continue that I broached in jest. I can, Petruchio, help thee to a wife With wealth enough, and young and beauteous, Her only fault, and that is faults enough, Is that she is intolerable curst,And shrewd and froward, so beyond all measure
- Hortensio, peace. Thou know’st not gold’s effect. Tell me her father’s name, and ’tis enough; For I will board her, though she chide as loud As thunder when the clouds in autumn crack.
- I know her father, though I know not her, And he knew my deceasèd father well. I will not sleep, Hortensio, till I see her, And therefore let me be thus bold with you To give you over at this first encounter, Unless you will accompany me thither.
- Her father is Baptista Minola, An affable and courteous gentleman. Her name is Katherina Minola, Renowned in Padua for her scolding tongue.
