Scene III Mrs. Jourdain, Mr. Jourdain, a Servant
MR. JOUR. Ah! insolent woman that you are; these are your fine doings. You come and abuse me before everybody, and send away from my house persons of quality.
MRS. JOUR. I don’t care a pin for their quality.
MR. JOUR. I don’t know, accursed woman that you are, what prevents me from beating your skull in with what remains of the feast you have come and disturbed.
MRS. JOUR. (going away). I despise your threats. I come here to defend my own rights, and all wives will be on my side.
MR. JOUR. You do wisely to avoid my anger, I can tell you.
