Courtesy

And trust thy honest-offered courtesy,
With oft is sooner found in lowly sheds,
With smoky rafters, than in tapestry walls
And courts of princes, where it first was named,
And yet is most pretended.

Pardon me, Messer Claudio, if once more
I use the ancient courtesies of speech.

My lord, for your many courtesies I thank you.

The lady drops a courtesy in token of obedience, and the ceremony proceeds as usual.
