Interesting- the line from the show "Kiss me Kate" = I've come to swive it (something)ly in Padua. - always had me puzzled! It makes sense now!

On the off chance that this is not a joke, the actual line is "I've come to wive it wealthily in Padua," and comes straight from Shakespeare. Petrucchio has come there to find a rich wife, regardless (as he explains in the rest of the song) of her looks or temperament.
