Today’s Totally Random Lines
And, trust me, I was coming to you. You look very ill.
Mistress Page
The Merry Wives of
Windsor Act
II Scene i, Line 34
This is Mistress Page’s reply to Mistress
Ford (these being the two titular Merry Wives). M. Ford has just shown
up at M. Page’s house, and M. Page is telling her that she had been about to
head to her house. The you look very ill part is a bit of a red herring,
because there’s nothing wrong with M. Ford, and her health is not at issue
here.
So, we’re starting the new year off with The Merry Wives. How about that. It’s not one of Will’s more famous plays, nor one of his more highly praised ones. It’s a farce with a bit of slapstick; much like many of his comedies. And I guess it’s okay if that’s what you’re looking for.
I think I’ll take a pass on any more about today’s line (since I don’t have anything) and instead move directly to a Mojo pic.
Happy New Year y'all!
