Roonwit
many of us memorized it in high school. I chose the dagger speech, though.

Miniver
Doomy and gloomy, but beautiful poetry

Miniver
I think I could still recite it.

Roonwit
Is this the dagger which I see before me...

Roonwit
that one.

Miniver
The one at Banquo's feast

Lys Aranel
"No, it's the fire iron, Jo"

Lys Aranel
(or something to that effect)

Miniver
ooh, I remember that part of Little Women

Miniver
Yes, and the next line was "She's stage-struck"

Roonwit
haha

Roonwit
I know part of Hamlet's "To be or not to be..."

Miniver
Impressive

Miniver
I kow about the first three lines

Lys Aranel
I like his sonnets, and Kate's speech at the end of Taming of the Shrew

Miniver
yes

Roonwit
I tried to go pretty far....but now I can't really remember it.

Lys Aranel
And Portia's "mercy" soliloquy

Miniver
yes

Lys Aranel
"The quality of mercy is not strain'd..."

Miniver
Now, here's real romance: Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediment.

Lys Aranel
"It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven upon the place beneath"

Miniver
Love is not love that alters when it alteration finds

Lys Aranel
Love is not love which alters when it altercation finds, nor bends with the remover to remove. Oh no, it is an ever-fixed mark, which looks on tempests and is not shaken

Lys Aranel
*alteration

Lys Aranel
It is... something or other... whose worth's unknown, although its ... be taken. If this is error and upon me proved, I have not writ, nor no man ever loved.

Miniver
whose worth's unknown, although its height be taken

Lys Aranel
Thanks

Lys Aranel
I knew it was height or length or some such

Roonwit
El amor no es amor que se altera cuando se encuentra altercado, ni se dobla con el removedor de quitar. ¡Oh, no, es una marca siempre fija, que se parece a las tempestades y no es sacudido

Miniver
It's a tough line

Lys Aranel
Okay, 'tis past midnight, so I need to go to bed.

Miniver
ooh, Roon!

Lys Aranel
Goodnight, all!

Miniver
Lovely in Spanish

Miniver
Night, Lys!

Lys Aranel
Indeed

Roonwit
night Lys.

Lys Aranel
'night

Miniver
Rest well, and enjoy the meeting with the Sibers
