Today’s Totally Random Lines
Then down upon her knees she falls, weeps, sobs, beats her heart, tears her hair, prays, curses;--‘O sweet Benedick! God give me patience!’
Claudio
Much Ado About Nothing Act II Scene iii, Line
149
So, what’s going on here? I’m sure I don’t
know. Let me take a look.
Okay, I read the summary and listened to the scene. Ready?
Benedick thinks he is eavesdropping on Don Pedro and Claudio in the garden, but the latter two know that Benedick is there listening to him. They decide to play a trick on Benedick by talking about Beatrice and how much in love she is with Benedick. And that’s what you’re hearing in Today’s Lines. Of course, Beatrice has done no such falling on her knees, and sobbing, and beating of her heart, but Benedick falls for it hook, line, and sinker.
Got it? Just so you know, Beatrice and Benedick do, in fact, end up together in the end. So I guess it’s all for the best.
I thought this was a cool close up of Mojo's eye. That's the kitchen sliding door that you see a reflection of.
Relevance? Uhh, nope, I got nothin'. I just thought it was a neat picture, and a pretty good indication of the quality of iphone pics. It's got nothing to do with Beatrice or Benedick. Sorry.
