On their first meeting, Petruchio praises Katharina's beauty

Dialogue

Katharina: "They call me Katharine that do talk of me."
Petruchio: "You lie, in faith, for you are called plain Kate,
And bonny Kate, and sometimes Kate the Curst;
But Kate, the prettiest Kate in Christendom,
Kate of Kate-Hall, my super-dainty Kate,
For dainties are all Kates--and therefore, Kate,
Take this of me, Kate of my consolation;
Hearing thy mildness praised in every town,
Thy virtues spoke of, and thy beauty sounded,
Yet not so deeply as to thee belongs,
Myself am moved to woo thee for my wife." (II.i.185-195)
