Don Pedro and his regiment are returning to Messina from the wars and are welcomed by Leonato, the governor of the city.

Benedick is a confirmed bachelor. Beatrice, Leonato's lively niece, declares herself equally determined to remain unmarried. These two are a match for each other's wit and when they meet, they immediately resume their sparring..
