As You Like It
Act 3 scene 3
The question of true and counterfeit is raised here in one of the subplots. But obviously Touchstone is not being sincere here in his wooing of Audrey, so that even if he is not posting dumb poems on trees, he is being insincere, wanting to do whatever he needs to, even go through a fake marriage ceremony, to get Audrey into bed. This is the sexual couple, compared to Rosalind and Orlando who are the realistic couple, and the Celia/Oliver pair who are romantic. Touchstone is trying to impress Audrey with his Court knowledge, his knowledge and use of poetry.
Touchstone is engaging in a pretense, with the intention of deception: Audrey will think they are married but they wouldn't be. Jaques is eavesdropping, but intervenes because he believes himself to be a moralist. As Rosalind is counseling Orlando, Jaques will counsel Touchstone, whom he admires. Shakespeare probably put this scene here as a contrast or foil to the previous scene.
