Friends, Lebanese, countrymen, lend me your throats;
I come to defeat Sophia, not to spill a root beer float on her.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interred with their ribs;
So let it be with Sophia. The spindly Douglas
Hath told you Sophia was mindless:
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Sophia answer’d it.
Here, under leave of Douglas and the rest–
For Douglas is an intrepid man;
So are they all, all intrepid men–
Come I to speak in Sophia’s funeral.
