KATHARINA<\/strong>
\n<\/a>
\nThe more my wrong, the more his spite appears:
\nWhat, did he marry me to famish me?
\nBeggars, that come unto my father’s door,
\nUpon entreaty have a present alms;
\nIf not, elsewhere they meet with charity:
\nBut I, who never knew how to entreat,
\nNor never needed that I should entreat,
\nAm starved for meat, giddy for lack of sleep,
\nWith oath kept waking and with brawling fed:
\nAnd that which spites me more than all these wants,
\nHe does it under name of perfect love;
\nAs who should say, if I should sleep or eat,
\n‘Twere deadly sickness or else present death.
\nI prithee go and get me some repast;
\nI care not what, so it be wholesome food.<\/em><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Geneva prepares to deliver the dramatic
\nmissive of Orsino’s love to the exquisite Olivia, found in Act I scn. V
\nof
\nTwelfth Night<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

VIOLA <\/strong>
\nMake me a willow cabin at your gate,
\nAnd call upon my soul within the house;
\nWrite loyal cantons of contemned love
\nAnd sing them loud even in the dead of night;
\nHalloo your name to the reverberate hills
\nAnd make the babbling gossip of the air
\nCry out ‘Olivia!’ O, You should not rest
\nBetween the elements of air and earth,
\nBut you should pity me!<\/em><\/p>\n
