You do him wrong, surely.


-Duke



Measure For Measure                 Act III scene ii, line 131



Now I don’t know the full context here, but I do know that this is the Duke responding to Lucio. The Duke is disguised as a friar and Lucio does not know he’s talking to the Duke. Lucio is saying some very uncomplimentary things (to say the least) about the Duke to the friar/Duke. To which the friar/Duke calmly responds, You do him wrong, surely. And then Lucio just doubles down on the slander. Oh my.




Well you may not believe this, but apparently Will's works have gone intergalactic. No, it's true. My associate and I were walking along, minding our own business. And then he said something about Darth Vader being an oversized asthmatic robot. All of a sudden these two guys appeared out of nowhere. They shoved me aside and you can see the surprise on my buddy's face as the one on the right pokes his finger into my buddy's chest and says 'You do him wrong, surely.' We were absolutely flabbergasted.
