Mojo, Will, & Me

 

The very mercy of the law cries out

Most audible, even from his proper tongue,

‘An Angelo for Claudio, death for death!’

 

-Duke

Measure For Measure                    Act V, Scene i, Line 406

 

Yup, the Duke is saying that the Angelo put Claudio to death for the same crime that Angelo himself committed. Ergo…

And he continues,

 

        Haste still pays haste, and leisure answers leisure:

        Like doth quit like, and Measure still for measure.

 

How about that? It’s the title of the play weaved into the dialogue. I don’t remember having seen that before in any of Will’s stuff. Of course, with the tragedies and the Histories the name of the title character comes up. But Comedy of Errors? A Midsummer Night’s Dream? Any of the other comedies? Well, I can’t think of any where the title of the play comes up in the dialogue of the play. Perhaps you can.

 

This is one of those days where I have absolutely no ideas about a picture to post with this post. 

So I guess it's going to be no pic today. 

Sorry.

But let's face it; a lot of my pics aren't all that great anyway.
