Petruchio, "a gentleman of Verona." introduces himself to Katharina's father and states his intention to woo Katharina.
Dialogue
I am a gentleman of Verona, sir,
That, hearing of her beauty and her wit,
Her affability and bashful modesty,
Her wondrous qualities and mild behavior,
Am bold to show myself a forward guest
Within your house to make mine eye the witness
Of that report which I so oft have heard. (II.i.47-53)
