Exit.

BAP:

And I, to sound the depth of this knavery.

Exit.

LUC:

Look not pale, Bianca; thy father will not frown.(120)

Exeunt [Lucentio and Bianca.]

GRE:

My cake is dough; but I'll in among the rest,
Out of hope of all, but my share of the feast.

[Exit]

KAT:

Husband, let's follow, to see the end of this ado.

PET:

First kiss me, Kate, and we will.

KAT:

What, in the midst of the street?(125)

PET:

What, art thou ashamed of me?

KAT:

No, sir, God forbid; but ashamed to kiss.

PET:

Why, then let's home again. Come, sirrah, let's away.

KAT:

Nay, I will give thee a kiss: now pray thee, love, stay.

PET:

Is not this well? Come, my sweet Kate:(130)
Better once than never, for never too late.

Exeunt.
