Hail heaven!
-Guiderius
Cymbeline Act III, Scene iii, Line 9
I’m not certain whether
Guiderius is making a reference to the religious heaven, or a reference to the
skies above, that is to say, nature. I guess, based on the context, it’s the
latter, but it could also be one of Will’s double entendres.
Okay, looks like I’ve been
misusing double entendre. According to MW online it means a word or
expression capable of two interpretations with one usually risqué. I wasn’t
aware of that second, risqué part. I guess I’ll have to revisit my use of that
phrase? Or can I just go with the fact that the second meaning is usually risqué,
but not always risqué? Yeah, let’s just do that.
