Now enjoy reading and acting the dialogue between Olivia and

Viola from "THE TWELFTH NIGHT" BY WILLIAM

SHAKESPEARE

(Olivia – S.Sh.Nurulova, PhD, a former winner of the English

Olympiad in Ufa, 1982, and Viola – her tutor T.G.Pyatyshina PhD.):

Viola: Most sweet Lady…

Olivia: A comfortable doctrine & much may be said of it. Where

lies your text?

Viola: In Orsino’s bosom.

Olivia: In his bosom…In what chapter of his bosom?

Viola: To answer by the method in the first of his heart.

Olivia: Oh, I’ve read it. It’s heresy. Have you no more to say?

Viola: Good Madam, let me see your face.

Olivia: Have you any commission from your Lord to negotiate

with my face? But we will draw the curtain & show you

the picture. Now, look. Is it not well done?

Viola: Excellently done, if GOD did all.

Olivia: Twill endure wind and weather!

Viola: Now I see You what you are. You ARE too proud!...

Olivia: Your Lord does know my mind: I cannot love him…

Viola: If I did love you in my master’s flame with such a suffering,

such a deadly life, in your denial I would find no sense!

I wouldn’t understand it!
