Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
When Speed arrives, Launce mistakes the word "mastership" for "master's ship" !.

There's a few more dumb jokes!.

He and Speed discuss an itemized list of qualities possessed by the woman!. [ Imprimus means "at the first"]

Love, or chivalry, helps Launce rationalize all negative points into virtues!.

At the end of the scene, Speed finds out that he was supposed to be at the North-gate and Launce set him up so that he would be beaten!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
