The Taming of the Shrew
In act 5 scene 1, of Taming of the Shrew by William Shakespeare, why do Lucentio and Bianca ask pardon of their fathers in lines 109-111?

They do this because much of it was done by impersonation (on Lucentio's part) and they eloped and got married which was considered disrespectful to the fathers. THe fathers were never formally asked for the marriage proposal.
