Period 8 The Prince and the Pauper February 17

"Thou hast the same hair, the same eyes, the same voice and manner, the same form and stature, the same face and countenance, that I bear.  Fared we forth naked, there is note could say which was you and which the Prince of Wales.  And now that I am clothed as thou were clothed, it seemeth I should be able the more nearly to feel as thou didst when the brute soldier --harkye, is not this a bruise upon you hand?"  Page 9 Dover Edition, The Prince and the Pauper.



Shylock from Shakespeare's "The Merchant of Venice"
I am a Jew. Hath not a Jew eyes? hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions? fed with the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer as a Christian is? If you prick us, do we not bleed? if you tickle us, do we not laugh? if you poison us, do we not die? and if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? If we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that. If a Jew wrong a Christian, what is his humility? revenge: If a Christian wrong a Jew, what should his sufferance be by Christian example? why, revenge. The villany you teach me I will execute: and it shall go hard but I will better the instruction. [Act III scene ii]
