Whatever fortune stays him from his word.
     Though he be blunt, I know him passing wise;
     Though he be merry, yet withal he’s honest. [25]

     Would Katherine had never seen him though.
                                 Exit weeping [followed by Bianca and Attendants].

     BAPT IST A

     Go, girl, I cannot blame thee now to weep,
     For such an injury would vex a saint,
     Much more a shrew of thy impatient humour.

                                          Enter Biondello.

     BIONDELLO

Master, master, news! And such old news as [30] you never heard of.

     BAPT IST A

Is it new and old too? How may that be?

     BIONDELLO

Why, is it not news to hear of Petruchio’s coming?

     BAPT IST A

Is he come? [35]

     BIONDELLO

Why, no, sir.

     BAPT IST A

What then?

     BIONDELLO

He is coming.

     BAPT IST A

When will he be here?

     BIONDELLO
