Petruchio: Well, I say no; and therefore, for assurance, Let’s each one send unto his wife,
And he whose wife is most obedient,
To come at first when he doth send for her,
Shall win the wager which we will propose. Hortensio: Content. What’s the wager? Lucentio: Twenty crowns.
Petruchio: Twenty crowns?
I’ll venture so much of my hawk or hound, But twenty times so much upon my wife.
Lucentio: A hundred then. Hortensio: Content.
Petruchio: A match! ‘tis done.
[Petruchio wins the bet: Katherine proves to be the most obedient wife.]
Lucentio: Here is a wonder, if you talk of a wonder. Hortensio: And so it is. I wonder what it bodes.
Petruchio: Marry, peace it bodes, and love, and quiet life, An awful rule, and right supremacy;
And, to be short, what not that’s sweet and happy. Baptista Minola: Now fair befall thee, good Petruchio! The wager thou hast won; and I will add
Unto their losses twenty thousand crowns; Another dowry to another daughter,
For she is chang’d, as she had never been.
