Today’s Totally Random Lines
Since when I have been debtor to you for courtesies, which I will be ever to pay, and yet still pay.
Posthumus Leonatus
Cymbeline Act I, Scene iv, Line 35
I’m not sure at all what to say about Today’s Line. Posthumus is merely acknowledging some kindness that the Frenchman showed him when the former was in France.
Perhaps we could look at the name Posthumus Leonatus. Either one of those two names alone is a bit of a mouthful. The two together are two mouthfuls. That’s a lot. I can’t imagine having a mouthful of something and then having to stuff in just as much before swallowing what I already have. That’s just too much.
Oooh, mind boggling.
Yah, yah, mind boggling: whatever you say... ooohh, that's the spot, don't stop, don't stop.
