- Scene ivj Merry Wives of Windsor 89
Scene IV. A Room in Pagers House
Enter Fenton and Anne Page
Fenton. I see I cannot get thy father's love ;
Therefore no more turn me to him, sweet Nan.
Anne. Alas, how then ?
Fenton. Why, thou must be thyself.
He doth object I am too great of birth,
And that, my state being gall'd with my expense,
I seek to heal it only by his wealth.
Besides these, other bars he lays before me, —
My riots past, my wild societies, —
And tells me 't is a thing impossible
I should love thee but as a property. 10
Anne. May be he tells you true.
Fenton. No, heaven so speed me in my time to
come !
Albeit I will confess thy father's wealth
Was the first motive that I woo'd thee, Anne,
Yet, wooing thee, I found thee of more value
Than stamps in gold or sums in sealed bags ;
And 't is the very riches of thyself
That now I aim at.
Anne. Gentle Master Fenton,
Yet seek my father's love ; still seek it, sir.
If opportunity and humblest suit 20
Cannot attain it, why, then, — hark you hither I
\_They converse apart.
