SCENE III. A street leading to the Park.
Enter MISTRESS PAGE, MISTRESS FORD, and DOCTOR CAIUS
MISTRESS PAGE
      Master doctor, my daughter is in green: when you
      see your time, take her by the band, away with her
      to the deanery, and dispatch it quickly. Go before
      into the Park: we two must go together.
DOCTOR CAIUS
5     I know vat I have to do. Adieu.
MISTRESS PAGE
      Fare you well, sir.

Exit DOCTOR 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
10    chiding than a great deal of heart-break.
MISTRESS FORD
      Where is Nan now and her troop of fairies, and the
      Welsh devil Hugh?
MISTRESS PAGE
      They are all couched in a pit hard by Herne's oak,
      with obscured lights; which, at the very instant of
15    Falstaff's and our meeting, they will at once
      display to the night.
MISTRESS FORD
      That cannot choose but amaze him.
MISTRESS PAGE
      If he be not amazed, he will be mocked; if he be
      amazed, he will every way be mocked.
MISTRESS FORD
20    We'll betray him finely.
MISTRESS PAGE
      Against such lewdsters and their lechery
      Those that betray them do no treachery.
MISTRESS FORD
      The hour draws on. To the oak, to the oak!
