The Merry Wives of Windsor
Act 4 Scene 3

A room in 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 turned away my other guests: they
must come off; I'll sauce them. Come.

[Exeunt]
