In her very presence, he refers to her as 'a poor virgin, an ill-favoured thing'.Touchstone does not wish to marry her seriously as wants to abandon her when he gets tired of her, after sometime on the pretext of having not been married by a qualified priest. Even before he has married her, he thinks of divorcing her. However Audrey's love for Touchstone is genuine.
