"To wound thy lord, thy king, thy governor.
It blots thy beauty as frosts do bite the meads,
Confounds thy fame as whirlwinds shake fair buds,
And in no sense is meet or amiable.
A woman moved is like a fountain troubled,
Muddy, ill-seeming, thick, bereft of beauty,
And while it is so, none so dry or thirsty
Will deign to sip or touch one drop of it."—Katherine, Act V, ii, 147 - 154

Answer: Well, within this passage, the author implicates that women are purely meant to be obedient towards their husbands and other male counterparts. This character, Katherine, believes that "to wound thy lord, thy king, thy governor : It blots thy beauty as frosts do bite the meads," meaning that it tarnishes a woman's beauty when she disrespects her husband (Act V, Scene II, 147–148). Katherine goes on to say that "A woman moved is like a fountain troubled / Muddy, ill-seeming, thick, bereft of beauty," basically reducing an angry frustrated woman to an unattractive and unwanted nuisance (Act V, Scene II, 151–152). While a woman is angry as such, nothing more than an ugly, dysfunctional fountain, "none so dry or thirsty / Will deign to sip or touch one drop of [the water in the fountain]," (Act V, Scene II, 153–154). All of this information indicates that a woman shouldn't act frustrated towards their husband, especially considering all that they do as their lords to keep them safe and well–treated. A woman, in return, is meant to treat their husband with kindness and content, since the husband is the only one in the relationship who does manual labor or has any sort of responsibility outside of the home.
