SIR TOBY BELCH
And cross-gartered?

SIR TOBY BELCH
With crisscrossed laces?

MARIA
Most villanously, like a pedant that keeps a school i' the
church. I have dogged him, like his murderer. He does obey
every point of the letter that I dropped to betray him. He
does smile his face into more lines than is in the new map
with the augmentation of the Indies. You have not seen such
a thing as ’tis. I can hardly forbear hurling things at him. I
know my lady will strike him. If she do, he’ll smile and take
’t for a great favor.

MARIA
Oh, he looks like a pathetic Sunday school teacher. I’ve stalked him like a murderer, and he’s done everything the letter told him to. He smiles so much his face has more lines in it than a map of the East Indies. You’ve never seen anything like it. I can hardly keep myself from throwing things at him. I know that my lady’s going to end up hitting him. And when she does, he’ll imagine she’s flirting with him.
