The Merry Wives of Windsor

ACT IV
Scene 3

The Garter Inn

Enter HOST and BARDOLPH

BARDOLPH
Sir, the Germans desire to have three of your
horses; the Duke himself will be to-morrow at court, and
they are going to meet him.

HOST
What duke should that be comes so secretly? I hear
not of him in the court. Let me speak with the gentlemen;
they speak English?

BARDOLPH
Ay, sir; I'll call them to you.

HOST
They shall have my horses, but I'll make them pay;
I'll sauce them; they have had my house a week at
command; I have turn'd away my other guests. They must
come off; I'll sauce them. Come.

Exeunt
