This house is little: the old man and his people

Cannot be well bestow’d.


-Regan

                                   

King Lear                               Act II, Scene iv, Line 289




‘The old man’ that Regan is referring to is, of course, her father. Good old Regan. She’s kicking papa out into the night.


Well, we’ve discussed this woman and her sister Goneril before. I’m not sure I’ve got anything new to say about either of them.

Yes, that's right. She's giving dear old dad the boot. I really don't like Regan.
