Quote analysis Enter Bosola with a dark lantern I must have part of it,/ My intelligence will freeze else. To such a forced expression of fear;/ I am Bosola, your friend. [Aside] This mole does undermine me heard you not/a noise even now? You are an impudent snake indeed, sir!/ Are you scarce warm and do you show your sting? The great are like the base, nay, they are the same,/ When they seek shameful ways to avoid shame
Check You have 8-10 minutes to explore your individual quotation in as much detail as possible. Then you will share your ideas with the class. Once each of you have presented your ideas we will have a chance to add anything that might have been missed. Or apply different interpretations.
