Hello Plurie-ga, Thank you for your question. The line you are referring to is If music be the food of love, play on from one of Shakespeares most popular comedies Twelfth Night. A summary of Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare Sparknotes Website http://www.sparknotes.com/shakespeare/twelfthnight/section1.html Early in Twelfth Night, Orsino speaks the famous line, "If music be the food of love, play on!" He says he wants to hear music because an "excess" of it may kill his "appetite" for love. However, you'd be right to suspect he also gets pleasure from the music because it reminds him of his beloved Olivia. Fineline Features Website http://www.finelinefeatures.com/twelfth/guide.htm Additional Information: A plaintext version of this play is available here: http://www.gh.cs.usyd.edu.au/~matty/Shakespeare/texts/comedies/twelfthnight Search criteria: ://www.google.com/search?hl=es&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=Shakespeare++love+music++%22play+on%22++&btnG=B%FAsqueda+en+Google&lr= I hope you find this helpful. Best regards, Bobbie7-ga |
