What’s he that speaks for Edmund Earl of Gloucester?

 -Edgar

King Lear                        Act V Scene iii, Line 125

 

We’re near to the end of the play, and Edgar has come forward to challenge Edmund. This is the part in the play where people start dying left and right. Edgar will be taking care of Edmund directly. Then we’ll get to Goneril, and then Cordelia, and then Lear. 

Did I mention that this is a tragedy?

Isn't there something about comedies not being always "funny"? Are tragedies always...tragic?
