1. Act 1 scene 1
(NIV)
Trainia, since for the great desire I had, to see fair Padua, nursery of arts, and by my mother’s love and leave am armed with her goodwill and the good company, my trusty servant well approved in all, here let us breathe and haply institute a course of learning and ingenious studies. Pisa gave me being, and my mother, a merchant of great business through the world. Tell me thy mind, for we have Pisa left and Padua come.
