Merry Wives of Windsor by William Shakespeare

Act 1 - Scene 2

The same.

Sir Hugh Evans : Go your ways, and ask of Doctor Caius' house which [p]is the way: and
there dwells one Mistress Quickly, [p]which is in the manner of his
nurse, or his dry [p]nurse, or his cook, or his laundry, his washer,
and [p]his wringer.

Simple : Well, sir.

Sir Hugh Evans : Nay, it is petter yet. Give her this letter; for it [p]is a 'oman that
altogether's acquaintance with [p]Mistress Anne Page: and the letter
is, to desire [p]and require her to solicit your master's desires
to [p]Mistress Anne Page. I pray you, be gone: I will [p]make an end
of my dinner; there's pippins and cheese to come.
