The Farrier

You will bear it, I assure you.

Never.

Starting today.

No.

Yes.

I will not consent to it.

You will consent to it, or else... Do not reason with me; for, look here... Jeannette... do not make me angry, do not be stubborn with me any longer.

ARIETTE.

I am gentle, I am kind:
But, by God original: "jarni" - a euphemistic oath, a contraction of "je renie" or similar., when I give an order,
Let no one reason with me,
For if they were to ask me why,
They would have to deal with me.
I do not have a jealous soul;
But I want to have Colin.
Fool, if it comes to pass that he marries you,
I will strangle him with my own hands.

We shall see.
