Quote #10
ANTONIO
How subtly was that murder closed. Bear up
Those tragic bodies, 'tis a heavy season:
Pray heaven their blood may wash away all treason.(5.3.158-160)
Is Antonio doing what men are supposed to do in the play here? Restoring order, mourning evil, and seeking to build something good? Or is this more a hollow reflection on how bad things are in the world of this play?
