Boyet
Love’s Labour’s Lost Act IV, Scene i, Line 75
Boyet is reading Don Armando’s love letter to
Jaquinita. The letter is almost thirty lines long and it doesn’t make much

is lost on me.
Yes, that’s right, Mr. Shakespeare-Lover here is admitting that the humour is lost on him. Nobody’s perfect: not Will, not Boyet or Don Armando, and certainly not Mr. Shakespeare-Lover me.

The question though... Why deny it victory for so long?? Why not just water the poor chap?
Out of sight, out of mind.
