Bosola Flashcards
Duchess to Bosola, appearance vs reality
pray thee, why dost thou wrap thy poisoned pills/in gold and sugar?
Description of Cardinal and Ferdinand
‘he and his brother are like plum trees that grow crooked over standing pools’
Bosola and power
‘Could i be one of their flatt’ring panders, I would hang on their ears like a horse-leech till I were full, and then drop off’
When the Duchess appears to come back to life
Her eye opes,/and heaven in it seems to ope, that late was shut,/to take me up to mercy
Bitter that his talents are not rewarded fairly
I have done you/better service than to be slighted thus./Miserable age, where only the reward/ of doing well is the doing of it
Moral accountability
mine is another voyage
End of play
‘gainst mine own good nature, yet i’th’end/negelected’
