Lucentio and Hortensio, disguised respectively as Cambio and Litio, vie for the attention of the fair Bianca. Bianca seems thoroughly amused by the competition, and decides that Lucentio may lecture her while Hortensio tunes his lute; once the instrument is in tune, Hortensio may then take over the lesson. This shows Bianca having some spirit. She seems in control. She enjoys this comical confrontation between two suitors and plays this whole scene out.
