Mistress Ford
“Stand not amaz’d; here is no remedy.
In love, the heavens themselves do guide the state;
Money buys lands, and wives are sold be fate.”
- —Shakespeare’s Merry Wives of Windsor (V.v.137-9)
My take, listen to the whole play, the women are in charge. Just sayin’.
Mistress Ford
It’s another passage that I couldn’t deliver clearly, but I’m not complaining.
