What's really going on
The final movement of the play is about putting things back together, and its tone keeps slipping between solemn and silly. Claudio plays the penitent properly — 'Give her the right you should have given her cousin, and so dies my revenge' — and his thanks are genuine enough to move the man he wronged: 'Your overkindness doth wring tears from me.' Beside this, Borachio's defence of Margaret matters more than it looks, because it clears an innocent woman from the plot while the play still believes Hero is dead. Then Dogberry arrives to insist that an insult to him be 'remembered in his punishment,' and the solemn scene turns comic on purpose. His farewell, 'God prohibit it,' is a blessing that wishes the opposite, the last of the malapropisms that make him who he is.

このシーンについての質問
Why does Claudio agree to the penance?
He believes Hero is dead because of the accusation he made, and the penance is a way to honour her memory. He says that once he restores her honour, his revenge is over.
What does Claudio mean by 'so dies my revenge'?
It is the end of the matter as far as he is concerned. By giving Hero the honour he denied her, he gives up the anger that drove him to accuse her.
Why is Borachio brought to Margaret?
She was named in the scheme against Hero, and he is asked to face her. He insists she was innocent and did not know what she was doing.
Why is Dogberry upset?
The prisoner insulted him, and he wants that insult recorded and counted when the man is punished. He complains that it was never written down.
What does 'God prohibit it' actually say?
Dogberry means to offer a kind farewell, but his words come out backwards: may God prevent any happy meeting again. It is one of his comic mistakes of the wrong word.
