P. 1492

I prithee go and get me some repast, [15]
 I care not what, so it be wholesome food.

GRUMIO

 What say you to a neat’s foot?

KAT HERINA

 ’Tis passing good, I prithee let me have it.

GRUMIO

 I fear it is too choleric a meat.
 How say you to a fat tripe finely broil’d? [20]

KAT HERINA

 I like it well. Good Grumio, fetch it me.

GRUMIO

 I cannot tell, I fear ’tis choleric.
 What say you to a piece of beef and mustard?

KAT HERINA

 A dish that I do love to feed upon.

GRUMIO

 Ay, but the mustard is too hot a little. [25]

KAT HERINA

 Why then, the beef, and let the mustard rest.

GRUMIO

 Nay then, I will not. You shall have the mustard,
 Or else you get no beef of Grumio.

KAT HERINA

 Then both, or one, or anything thou wilt.

GRUMIO

 Why then, the mustard without the beef. [30]
