Dear Arnfinn,
Suspecting you to be a Shakespearean expert, can you ID the speaker and the one spoken to? "My son, I find thy mind adept. undulled by weeds of Lethe's type. So listen now, they say I slept in orchards where the asps are ripe. And thus, my death in Denmark's thought to be by viper's toxic sting. Oh nobel son, as king be sought. That crownED snake to justice bring!" Nice if you can link to the actual scene ·······  ······· |
