THE MOTION PICTURE STORY MAGAZINE
John, bewildered, stumbled into their very arms. His disguise was instantly penetrated, and the irate husbands and their followers set upon him with their cudgels, giving him such a beating as knight had never before received. Seeing that Sir John had been sufficiently punished, the merry wives related the whole story to their husbands, who, between amusement and satisfaction at knowing of the faithfulness of their wives, let the wretched Sir John go his way, a sadder and a wiser man.
' ' A tale of merit, ' ' the Parish Clerk pronounced, when -the Second Stranger had concluded, "and containing sundry morals worthy of reflecting upon. Methinks, tho, 'twould have been more amusing to see those events than to hear them recounted. But as
that might not be, we must, good lack, make ourselves content with the hearing; and you, Stranger, shall have your wine."
Young Will Shakespeare, who sat apart from the others, had given careful heed to the tales of the Strangers. Suddenly a light flashed into his eyes, and he hastily drew from his pouch an ink-horn and sheets of parchment.
' ' Aye, goodly tales, but better to see than to hear!" he muttered. For a moment he was lost in thought. All others in the taproom were busy with their ale and wine. Young Shakespeare drew to him the parchment sheets, and at the top of the first wrote the words, "The Taming of the Shrew," and at the top of the second sheet, "Sir John Falstaff, or, The Merry Wives of Windsor."
