And how does good Master Fenton? Pray you, a word with you. [35]
SHALLOW
[To Slender] She’s coming; to her, coz. O boy, thou hadst a father!
SLENDER
I had a father, Mistress Anne; my uncle can tell you good jests of him. Pray
you, uncle, tell Mistress Anne the jest how my father stole two geese out of a
pen, good [40] uncle.
SHALLOW
Mistress Anne, my cousin loves you.
SLENDER
Ay, that I do, as well as I love any woman in Gloucestershire.
SHALLOW
He will maintain you like a gentlewoman. [45]
SLENDER
Ay, that I will, come cut and long-tail, under the degree of a squire.
SHALLOW
He will make you a hundred and fifty pounds jointure.
ANNE
Good Master Shallow, let him woo for himself. [50]
SHALLOW
Marry, I thank you for it; I thank you for that good comfort. She calls you,
coz; I’ll leave you.
ANNE
Now, Master Slender.
SLENDER
