This
prison where I live unto the world:
And
for because the world is populous
And
here is not a creature but myself,
I
cannot do it; yet I’ll hammer it out.
-Richard
King Richard the Second Act V Scene v, Line 1
A most excellent
line; the beginning of Richards soliloquy in the cell before he is murdered. I’m
tempted to give you the whole thing, but it’s pretty long, so I suppose not. I
really like the yet I’ll hammer it out part. I actually use that
line occasionally. No, really, I do.
Apparently we’ve
covered this soliloquy, at least in part, once before in Totally Random Daily
Shakespeare. Here’s a link to that post in case your interested.
