Dialogue

Lucio: "Lord Angelo, a man who's blood
Is very snow-broth, one who never feels
The wanton stings and motions of the sense,
But doth rebate and blunt his natural edge
With profits of the mind, study and fast...All hope is gone unless you have the grace by your fair prayer
To soften Angelo..." (II.i.57-71)..
