Today’s Totally Random Lines

 

I accuse them not.

 

Marina

Pericles                   Act IV, Scene ii, Line 70

For the second day in a row we’re in a spot that we’ve covered in a previous post, but since we didn’t touch on this particular line, we’ll carry on today.

So, Marina’s just been sold into a whorehouse. First, she laments, wishing that the pirates had thrown her overboard instead of saving her. Then she’s wishing that she wasn’t pretty, with the woman in charge of the bordello agreeing she is, saying, the gods have done their part in you. That’s where Marina replies with today’s line. She’s not blaming the gods for anything, and that’s probably a smart thing to do.

It's interesting that this scene is made up of a bunch of different bordello characters and Marina. All the bordello people's lines are written in prose, but Marina's are written in blank verse. 

Well, it's a little bit interesting. 

I think that's all I can come up with today.

Would you care to guess what this is a picture of?

It's the inside of a birdhouse. 

Nope, it has nothing to do with nothing. And you know what will come of nothing.
