Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres The Grande Odalisque painting
John William Waterhouse Waterhouse Narcissus painting
knowing thee to be but young and light --
KATHARINA
Too light for such a swain as you to catch;And yet as heavy as my weight should be.
PETRUCHIO
Should be! should -- buzz!
KATHARINA
Well ta'en, and like a buzzard.
PETRUCHIO
O slow-wing'd turtle! shall a buzzard take thee?
KATHARINA
Ay, for a turtle, as he takes a buzzard.
PETRUCHIO
Come, come, you wasp; i' faith, you are too angry.
KATHARINA
If I be waspish, best beware my sting.
PETRUCHIO
My remedy is then, to pluck it out.
KATHARINA
Ay, if the fool could find it where it lies,
PETRUCHIO
Who knows not where a wasp doeswear his sting? In his tail.
KATHARINA
In his tongue.
PETRUCHIO
Whose tongue?KATHARINA
Yours, if you talk of tails: and so farewell.
PETRUCHIO
What, with my tongue in your tail? nay, come again,Good Kate; I am a gentleman.
KATHARINA
That I'll try.
[She strikes him]
PETRUCHIO
I swear I'll cuff you, if you strike again.
