△2H.IV.1.2.57(52): “I bought him in Paul’s,andhe’ll buy me a horse in Smithfield; an I could get mebut a wife in the stews,I were manned,horsed,and wived.”(Proverb: “Who goes to Westminster (i.e.notorious for bad characters) for a wife,to Paul’s for a man,or to Smithfield for a horse,may choose awhore,a knave and a jade.”)我在圣保罗大教堂买到他，他又要在斯密斯菲尔德为我买一匹马；如果我再到窑子里找一个老婆，那么我就仆人、马匹、老婆全都有了。
