Lear Flashcards
our darker
purpose
tis our fast intent
to shake all cares and business from our ages conferring them on younger strengths
that future strife
may be prevented
now our
joy
here i disclaim
all my paternal care, propinquity and property of blood, and as a stranger to my heart and me hold thee from this for ever
as thou
my sometime daughter
come not between
the dragon and his wrath. I lov’d her most, and thought to set my rest on her kind nursery
out of
my sight!
if on the tenth day
following thy banish’d trunk be found in our dominion, the moment is thy death
for we have no such
daughter, nor shall ever see that face of hers again
[the love test]
which of you shall say doth love us most
nothing will come
if nothing
if though be as poor
for a subject as he is for a king, thou art poor enough
i have perceived
a most faint neglect of late
nothing can be made
out of nothing
