...which means
that they can stop fighting.

:14:04
Now are our brows...
:14:07
...bound with victorious wreaths.
:14:10
Our bruised arms
hung up for monuments.

:14:13
Our stern alarum changed
to merry meetings.

:14:17
What do they do
when the fighting stops?

:14:21
Grim-visaged war...
:14:23
...hath smooth'd his wrinkled front.
:14:26
And now, instead of mounting
barbed steeds...

:14:29
...to fright the souls
of fearful adversaries, he capers...

:14:33
...nimbly in a lady's chamber...
:14:36
...to the lascivious pleasings of a lute.
:14:40
FEMALE SCHOLAR:

:14:41

But I...
:14:57
...that am not shaped
for sportive tricks...

:15:01
...nor made to court...
:15:03
...an amorous looking-glass.

of this fair proportion...

:15:10
...cheated of feature
by dissembling nature, deformed.

:15:14
- Deformed.
- He was a hunchback.

:15:16
PACINO:
Deformed. Deformed.

:15:22
Unfinish'd...
:15:25
...sent before my time
into this breathing world...

:15:27
...scarce half made up...
:15:29
...and that so lamely
and unfashionable...

:15:32
...that dogs bark at me
as I halt by them.

:15:37
Why, I, in this weak piping
time of peace...

:15:41
...have no delight
to pass away the time...

:15:45
...unless to see my shadow in the sun...
:15:50
...and descant upon
mine own deformity.

:15:54
Shakespeare has exaggerated
his deformity...

:15:58
...in order to body forth dramatically...
