Falstaff (opera)
The next visitor Falstaff has is Ford.  Falstaff does not know who he is.  Ford says his name is Master Brook (Signor Fontana).  He gives Falstaff a purse with silver and tells him that he is in love with Mistress Ford (Alice).  He asks Falstaff to get her for him.  Falstaff says he will be seeing her that very afternoon.  Ford asks him whether he knows Alice’s husband (i.e. himself).  Falstaff says he does and he describes to him what a terrible man Ford is.  It is a very comic scene with a lot of very clever humour.
