The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King Lear by William Shakespeare: pah!
Give me an ounce of civet, good apothecary, to sweeten my
imagination. There's money for thee.
Glou. O, let me kiss that hand!
Lear. Let me wipe it first; it smells of mortality.
Glou. O ruin'd piece of nature! This great world
Shall so wear out to naught. Dost thou know me?
Lear. I remember thine eyes well enough. Dost thou squiny at
me?
No, do thy worst, blind Cupid! I'll not love. Read thou this
challenge; mark but the penning of it.
King Lear |
