SCENE III. Another part of the Forest
Enter Touchstone and Audrey. TOUCHSTONE. Tomorrow is the joyful day, Audrey, tomorrow will we be married. AUDREY. I do desire it with all my heart; and I hope it is no dishonest desire to desire to be a woman of the world. Enter two Pages. Here come two of the banished Duke’s pages. FIRST PAGE. Well met, honest gentleman. TOUCHSTONE. By my troth, well met. Come sit, sit, and a song. SECOND PAGE. We are for you, sit i’ th’ middle. FIRST PAGE. Shall we clap into’t roundly, without hawking or spitting or saying we are hoarse, which are the only prologues to a bad voice? SECOND PAGE. I’faith, i’faith, and both in a tune like two gipsies on a horse.
