I have to do a shakespeare monologue for an audition, and I have decided on a monologue. The problem is shakespeare is not my strongest suit, and I have trouble finding the right way to say each line. I was just wondering if some one could give me a brief idea of what the character is feeling in the monologue. The monologue is from The Winter's Tale IV. iv ...its the one that perdita does:
Sir, my gracious lord,
To chide at your extremes it not becomes me:
O, pardon, that I name them! Your high self,
The gracious mark o' the land, you have obscured
With a swain's wearing, and me, poor lowly maid,
Most goddess-like prank'd up: but that our feasts
In every mess have folly and the feeders
Digest it with a custom, I should blush
To see you so attired, sworn, I think,
To show myself a glass
Thanks in advance for all the help.
