On the other hand, the lute also played a prominent role in comedy. The heroines of Dekker's The Honest Whore and Marston's The Dutch Courtesan are "professional" lutenists. Shakespeare describes Katharina's ill-fated lute lesson in The Taming of the Shrew: I did but tell her she mistook her frets, and bowed her hand to teach her fingering; When with a most impatient, devilish spirit, 'Frets, call you these?' quoth she, 'I'll fume with them.' And with that word she struck me on the head, And through the instrument my pate made way, And there I stood amazed for a while, As on a pillory, looking through the lute; While she did call me rascal fiddler And twangling Jack, with twenty such vile terms, As had she studied to misuse me so.
