SCENE I. Windsor Park. Enter Page, Shallow, and Slender.

Page.

Come, come; we'll couch i'th' castle-ditch, 'till we see the light of our fairies. Remember, son Slender, my daughter.

Slen.

Ay, forsooth, I have spoke with her, and we have a nay-word how to know one another. I come to her in white, and cry, mum; she cries, budget; and by that we know one another.

Shal.

That's good too; but what needs either your mum, or her budget? the white will decipher her well enough. It hath struck ten o'clock.

Page.

The night is dark, light and spirits will become it well; heav'n prosper our sport! 1 noteNo one means evil but the devil, and we shall know him by his horns. Let's away; follow me.

[Exeunt.
