 [Enter SIR HUGH EVANS and SIMPLE]

SIR HUGH EVANS Go your ways, and ask of Doctor Caius' house which
 is the way: and there dwells one Mistress Quickly,
 which is in the manner of his nurse, or his dry
 nurse, or his cook, or his laundry, his washer, and
 his wringer.

SIMPLE Well, sir.

SIR HUGH EVANS Nay, it is petter yet. Give her this letter; for it
 is a 'oman that altogether's acquaintance with
 Mistress Anne Page: and the letter is, to desire
 and require her to solicit your master's desires to
 Mistress Anne Page. I pray you, be gone: I will
 make an end of my dinner; there's pippins and cheese to come.

 [Exeunt]
