Edward Hopper Ground Swell painting
Lord Frederick Leighton The Painter's Honeymoon painting
Why, then thou canst not break her to the lute?
HORTENSIO
Why, no; for she hath broke the lute to me.I did but tell her she mistook her frets,And bow'd her hand to teach her fingering;When, with a most impatient devilish spirit,'Frets, call you these?' quoth she; 'I'll fumewith them:'And, with that word, she struck me on the head,And through the instrument my pate made way;And there I stood amazed for a while,As on a pillory, looking through the lute;While she did call me rascal fiddlerAnd twangling Jack; with twenty such vile terms,As had she studied to misuse me so.
PETRUCHIO
Now, by the world, it is a lusty wench;I love her ten times more than e'er I did:O, how I long to have some chat with her!
BAPTISTA
Well, go with me and be not so discomfited:Proceed in practise with my younger daughter;She's apt to learn and thankful for good turns.Signior Petruchio, will you go with us,Or shall I send my daughter Kate to you?
