O from what pow'r hast thou this pow'rful might,
    With insufficiency my heart to sway,
    To make me give the lie to my true sight,
    And swear that brightness doth not grace the day?
    Whence hast thou this becoming of things ill,
    That in the very refuse of thy deeds
    There is such strength and warrantise of skill
    That in my mind thy worst all best exceeds?
    Who taught thee how to make me love thee more,
    The more I hear and see just cause of hate?
    O, though I love what others do abhor,
    With others thou shouldst not abhor my state.
                    If thy unworthiness raised love in me,
                    More worthy I to be beloved of thee.

I must admit that I am very much enjoying this term's literature course. I had worried that it would not be up to standard, but I should have expected that Eligere would adhere to its usual standards and fill our curriculum with only the best. We are studying the sonnets, at present, as you may have ascertained.

Private to Katherine Lawrence

I have taken the liberty of arranging for us to have our evening meal in our suite before we must report for our ballroom dancing lesson. Do you have any requests? I believe I have covered many of your favorites, but I would not wish to overlook anything you might desire.

	~~Of course, that is the sonnet that earns your favor. Upon occasion, your perfection is troublesome.~~ I have to agree. I am enjoying this term's literature course as well. [private to Garrett] That is acceptable. At this particular point in time, I have no requests. The effort to include my favorite things is ~~maddening~~ appreciated. (Reply to this)(Thread)

There is a performance of Taming of the Shrew being done in town later this month. I could arrange for us to attend if you are amenable.

Private to Katherine

It is my pleasure, bello.

	I do not see why Katherina would remind you of me. I would never let a man treat me the way she lets Petruchio treat her. I would never marry an abusive misogynist. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She is quite a compelling character. Do you not agree? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	If I were to choose one character from that particular play, she is the most compelling, yes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I do resent the comparison to Petruchio, however. Petruchio was an idiot. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He was reading to her, if I'm not mistaken. Are you certain she is not merely placating you? Perhaps she is starting to fall for her betrothed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
