Act 4. Scene 1. Ziriff's house

Enter Aglaura and Jacqueline

Aglaura. The duke advances, servant, yet I swear

I do not cherish lovers as I ought.

Jacqueline. We creep with danger, as I hear some say,

When first we love and then refuse to love.

Aglaura. I scorn all fears of danger. In that vein,

My brother's mood is heavy on my brows.

Jacqueline. And yet the duke!

Aglaura. And yet my Thomas! Satyrs will I clasp

If not his groaning pleasures. Let none sway

My mounting thoughts except the man I love.

Jacqueline. Dear mistress, midnight's bell would make me sweat

Much less were you for once but fixed, unpressed

By manly burdens, at least just to one.

Let me remind myself in my note-book:

Are you not married?

Aglaura. I know I am, and gladly would I sleep

With Thomas and lie thomased till I die,

But how should I reveal that to my duke?

And yet he is a man.

Jacqueline. A duke, too.

Aglaura. A man. You are too faint and womanish.

What may I do with men? I swear on this

My sex, man is the mirror of the world,

The imaged picture of all worthiness.

For his sake I arise each morning, sing

With Chanticleer, till blushing of the sun

Or of my love, for his sake I eat up

My fill at noon, take medications when

I sicken, on sight of horrendous deeds

Forbear to end myself, though withering

Next to the rank of beggars. Pah! I blanch

On what I undergo, but yet not die,

Were only manhood here. Man's body! Is

There- say so if you know- another form

Of paradise except that? Only know

That one, for which I'll scuff and scrape on knees

Both day and night. Let my purse be cut, my breath

Lie stifled with a rheum approaching death,

My mother set adrift on soggy planks,

Iced in the middle of the Arctic sea,

My worthy cousins choke in pools of blood

By grooms who kill for pennies, hideous rakes

Surprise me in the night, turn my face

Into soft jelly, hack at every limb,

Until the body festers, worthy for

The venison of curs, I will not weep,

But jest at pains, were only manhood here.

(Sound of a trumpet heard

Jacqueline. I hear his trumpet. Fears nudge me away.

Exit Jacqueline and enter the duke

Duke. A woman who makes day before the sun!

Aglaura!- Are you silent? Is it so?

No word of greeting to a happy duke?

Aglaura. A visit from a duke! Must I then thank

Your pity, or your scorn? My fortune is

Such that both are deserved.

Duke. Have I not been a Jupiter to you,

With pieces raining on receiving thighs?

I answer minions with a frown of might,

All thirsting in cups of solicitude,

To shower you with diamonds. Are these lost,

With thanks forgotten as soon as received?

I am a cipher, added to your sums

To make my little as complete a store

As many women never hope to wish.

Aglaura. I grant you, money spills from you. I take

Your seed with hands, yet stifling deathlessly

With nightly visits more than I dare say.

Duke. I grieve at that, yet sorrow on that face

Becomes it more than gladness on a queen.

Aglaura. You mock.

Duke. I never do. There is no shallow priest

Who would not kiss such griefs as a night-friend

Whenever blessed by them. I chide neglect

Of my most potent summons, making men

Who nurture disobedience choke in pains.

Aglaura. Make me aggrieved. I like it better than

Your love, which is no love.

Duke. Soon you will not.

Aglaura. If I sin in proportion to the smart

Of penalities to undergo, take life,

Yours as I speak. Who would not offer life

To be made happy, where I never am?

If my defaults be black against the state,

Then let my state be black, to shrinking down

In a toad's dwelling, turning whitest skin

As the depositary of ant-eggs,

A progeny of running blackness apt

As punishment to my indifference.

Duke. But you deserve much worse. Have you repaid

Abundant stocks of love-thoughts poured down from

My eyes? Say so, and I'll not punish yet.

Aglaura. A public sentence I at least expect,

Not quickly murdered in a private room.

Duke. And yet I know you will repent, you must,

So quickly, too, lest we sink bellowing.

I must have satisfaction.

Aglaura. What satisfaction can you hope from me,

A stranger, not your wife? As subject, do

I live but for your pleasure? Hear aright:

I am no ordinary monster as

Most women are, two faces with two hearts.

You know another heart binds mine in vows

Of holiness, entwined like yarn to yarn,

Not to be separated, loath to pine

Without him as for you to hug with joy

Your murderer. Consider what it is

To sever love from love: it is one flame.

I'll glut on bones before releasing him.

You waste your cheeks on feebly dying light.

Duke. No more.

Aglaura. Take more, take all. You may as well persuade

The light to stay behind when the sun sinks.

Duke. I do not know him, nor will I know you

If like some sleepy Samson I lie shorn.

Aglaura. Alas, like brooks commingling wave on wave,

We have encompassed all the joys of love

In marriage, heaven's image, or else hell's:

There is no purgatory in that state.

Now rocks of old men's power must divide.

Whoever should design to kill my love

Annuls Aglaura, too. It must be so.

Duke. I am appeased. I'll demonstrate the way

I am.- Within there, ho! A duke commands.

Enter Ziriff and Jacques

A strange emotion, pity, cowers me,

Too dangerous while hurting malcontents

Who wish me dead, yet, howsoever, love

Must sway. Aglaura, from this happy hour,

I'll be both duke and servant, lest delays

Kill you, the worst of crimes, especially

To one akin to moonbeams we cry for

When losing general light.- Ziriff, come.

We go. I grieve, my Ziriff. Pitiful

And strange, this humor men call love!

Jacques. Your grace, I wish to speak to her.

Ziriff. You heard the duke. On, follow.

Duke. Enough.

Jacques. My lord-

Ziriff. Again?

Duke. Come, Ziriff, dance away and let him stay.

Exeunt the duke and Ziriff

Jacques. Will you believe him, child?

Aglaura. What, Jacques, hah? What is your wish with me?

Jacques. Do not.

Aglaura. What do you mean?

Jacques. The duke intends you harm.

Aglaura. I am all wonder, courtier. Speak again.

Jacques. Do not believe him, for strong lust and rage

Are all the emblems he can answer to.

Aglaura. My torment!

Jacques. It will increase, no later than tonight.

So far you have sucked hard on ripest fruits

A court serves up; now servitude attends.

Aglaura. O, my chipped jewel!

Jacques. What? Do you mean your chastity? So nice?

I thought no woman living in this age

Considers that. In spite of many faults,

He is a duke and therefore can command

What men in danger fail to yield to him.

Aglaura. I will not fail or yield.

Jacques. Lest you die wretched, do. One lately

Refused him. I beheld this duke take out

His sword, and with the flat end smack her twice

On unsuspecting buttocks, rumpling clothes

And body to her floor- and ending thus:

She lost her nose and part of her left pap,

Then, carted like a lewd one on soiled straw

For being what she never could become,

Before her parents' and intended's sight,

Whipped five times in the market-place, the end

Of which I think you saw last Saturday.

Aglaura. I did, down in my sickness to the knees,

An open-mouthed blank.

Jacques. Just when we thought chastisement at an end,

Two murderers climbed to her window sill-

I must stop when I see you quaking so.

Aglaura. My fears like nightly serpents cover me.

Jacques. I will be missed, Aglaura; otherwise,

I would convince where it is evident.

He may not brook disdain, not from his foes,

Much less his friends. He flashes and men die.

Either he takes your all, or lies defunct,

An abject pup of lust, a boyhood mock,

Erectile whimperer on beds of seed.

Exit Jacques and re-enter Jacqueline

Aglaura. I am a stone of misery. Strange thoughts

Assault my griefs, when nothing gives me peace

Except what is too deadly dangerous.

Jacqueline. Your worried brother meant to speak with you.

Aglaura. I know he did, but what of that? Commands

Of woman's nature guide me now throughout.

Jacqueline. I am uncertain whether that is well.

Aglaura. To take his life who but intends to take

The life of life, my honor! If accomplishing

But half my thoughts, I'll be a wonder past

The age among all women. Cast away

Loose sex and tameness, let no Lucrece blade

Aim at my heart, but his; may rapist fiends

Grow pale in only thinking of this deed,

Heroic past example in the world,

Or I will have at worst a common grave

Which all of us strive for.

Jacqueline. O! Now I fear more than I ever did.

Enter Disgruntled

Aglaura. Whose shadow is this now?

Jacqueline. Ha! Not the duke already?

Disgruntled. No, I, your comfortable guest.

Jacqueline. Your knight abed from the other night.

Aglaura. He almost scared me out of my shirt. What is your wish, sir, hah?

Jacqueline. He gropes confused.

Aglaura. What do you say, sir?- Leave us, slave.

Exit Jacqueline

No wisdom from a man in torn night-clothes?

Disgruntled. Where am I? I remember now: we slept in the same bed.

Aglaura. What do you mean?

Disgruntled. One may not be blamed when asking what a woman intends by keeping her servant so long in her bed. Where is Thomas?

Aglaura. Escaped from the duke.

Disgruntled. Have I slept out the revolution?

Aglaura. It evidently seems so.

Disgruntled. Yet I remember a woman-tigress in bed, hot and musty, kissing me fully on the mouth a hundred times at least, stroking my beard, next a woman-eel slithering below my naked body, sweaty to provoke more sweat, then joyfully and confidently above to play the man a little, only to fall cooing for some deeper thrusts and surer grips. Was that you?

Aglaura. Perhaps.

Disgruntled. I must reach Thomas, save him from himself if not from the duke.

Aglaura. He hides underground, never to be seen, even by moles. Yet, if you meet him, beseech him to remain a living buried one, since the duke is up, intending no fatherly hug and welcoming.

Disgruntled. I will.

Exeunt Aglaura and Disgruntled

Act 4. Scene 2. The duke's palace

Enter Orbella and Paul

Orbella. I tremble when I think I spy the duke.

You have not seen him yet?

Paul. If I have, what of that?

Orbella. So brief? There was a time I was your all.

Paul. That time is not.

Orbella. More groom than noble, will you grin and sneer?

Paul. I rather wish not speak with you at all.

Orbella. Did we not share last night two pillows, slave?

Paul. We did.

Orbella. Have you no friend I can replace you with?

Your active body with a nobler mind?

Paul. Almost impossible to woman's hope.

You'll have large-thighed grooms lisping poesy.

Orbella. I dally with my life.

Paul. Yet what of mine?

Orbella. Pooh! What life can a younger brother have?

Paul. None, when annexed with yours.

Orbella. A friend of yours casts scornful eyes at me.

Paul. What then?

Orbella. Remind him I am duchess, more than that:

The one commanding in the place he lives.

Paul. I'll speak of that. Should he desire to, so;

If not, go swimming naked, duchess.

Orbella. The serpent glares. Hell-fire is gentler than

The man I love.

Paul. Is there but this lean fragment left to eat?

Orbella. Ha, are you speaking of my body? Once

My Ziriff- stifle that. To know his aim!

I will not beg, but find whether he loves.

My blood should freeze on sight of Ziriff's face

For what I do to him. No more of that.

Here's gold.

Paul. Most gentle. Pah!

Orbella. Are you so rich as to void filth on it?

Paul. No, I am not, yet, lady, not so poor

To be a woman's fool.

Orbella. More pleasant niceties of replenished man!

Paul. Ho, not for Neptune's store.

Orbella. Is he your barber?

Paul. No murderous metal crosses me.

Orbella. Lazar-licking hound, you know your mission. I must not weary you.

Paul. You cannot, for your body has done so already. Ziriff should learn of your drooping appendages.

Orbella. The villain faces me.

Paul. How I do I fail to understand, with such a face.

Orbella. Take this letter.

Paul. A letter? No. What type of man conveys

A lady's letters? No.

Orbella. The type of man you are? Is that your query? I do not stoop so low as to study intricate forms of muck.

Paul. Not for Ziriff, no, not on the part of bloated lustfulness.

Orbella. Although Ziriff dances in the ascendant with the duke, height is the greatest danger.

Paul. I'll tell him that.

Orbella. Let him beware of it.

Paul. And also beware of you.

Orbella. Why?

Paul. Are you not great?

Orbella. Misused, rebuked, and flouted! Villains snap

To have their way. I will soon rid myself

Of dangerous and heady creatures. Have

I slept this fortnight?

Paul. A piece of worry steeped in dregs of vice!

Orbella. These outgrowths lying far too near the court,

The duke always too tame a gardener!

Paul. I'll bring him shears.

Exeunt Orbella and Paul

Act 4. Scene 3. A forest

Enter Thomas and Arnaud

Thomas. Ha, captured?

Arnaud. No, nephew. Have you not heard? I am your father's no more, but yours, for you are duke.

Thomas. Can I believe you?

Arnaud. Believe or not. I stroll this way to improve my health, yet I would not have you die so soon.

Thomas. Why not?

Arnaud. Should you not be the duke?

Thomas. For filth I am almost a duke already.

Arnaud. Your father in his mind, you on the outside.

Thomas. Where should I go, uncle?

Arnaud. I cannot dream of guessing on that subject yet.

Thomas. What and where should I eat?

Arnaud. Your meals are at your feet.

Thomas. Enjoy dirt and some carrots, man,

If woman you wish to enjoy.

Arnaud. I'll have Jacques deliver you mushrooms and herbs from his garden.

Thomas. Out! I die on sight of them. Is he in the plot against my father, too?

Arnaud. Who is not?

Thomas. Ziriff?

Arnaud. Compact with us, a very subtle knave, no doubt pliable, to help us in our need against the tyrant none would desire to keep and uphold but all would strangle if they could without suspicion.

Thomas. I am afire to accomplish it.

Arnaud. In a coat so wet? Jacques will disclose how we should plan and organize. I asked him to walk around a cabin we noticed hereabouts. Do you know it?

Thomas. I slept there last night, if I had any sleep.

Arnaud. Then never doubt but we'll soon see yet another crafty knave on the winning side, joining us here, big inside our plots, to overturn with shovels a rotting piece of cabbage.

Thomas. Ah, cold, cold, and wetted through to every hair! Caugh, hah, caugh!

Arnaud. I never like such coughs.

Thomas. Should we go towards the cabin now?

Arnaud. No, farther up this road, the better for friend Jacques cheerfully to spy us out.

Thomas. Were he already here with log and fire!

Arnaud. So does he, without the log and fire, but only you, precious one, the heir, on whom I depend for any hope of future happiness.

Thomas. I thank you, uncle.

Arnaud. Are we no very loving family?

Thomas. I think so, but, if we love each other, we must kill my father.

Arnaud. True.

Thomas. A strange kind of loving here!

Arnaud. The lusthead slave deserves it.

Thomas. As I often say and repeat.

Arnaud. Who lurks behind these bushes?

Enter Disgruntled

Ha, an enemy?

Disgruntled. A friend.

Thomas. Disgruntled?

Arnaud. I nearly stabbed him through the heart once, but yet a friend now, it appears.

Thomas. No traitor when we marched against the tyrant?

Disgruntled. I fell asleep during that action.

Thomas. Where?

Disgruntled. I should not tell.

Arnaud. Let be. You know, Thomas, the sluggard likes you almost as much as his bed, and may help against one with too numerous a retinue for us to challenge allegiance of members to our cause.

Disgruntled. I'll fight with two stubs if found without arms.

Arnaud. There's a man.

Thomas. Huh, as you wish or hope.

Arnaud. Sir Disgruntled, what do you say?

Disgruntled. Look here, another!

Thomas. More enemies?

Arnaud. Jacques, I think and hope.

Enter Jacques

Thomas. I should hide, I think.

Arnaud. Do not. All your enemies are friends.

Jacques. Thomas, found! We catch the knave with the football.

Thomas. Off me, minion! I swear he means to choke me yet.

Arnaud. Unlikely at this juncture. Instead, strike his shoulders, call him yours, for the knave, like a used shoe, wears more comfortably after a week or two.

Thomas. What now?

Disgruntled. Kill a tyrant.

Jacques. I have a secret strategem for that.

Arnaud. I knew he would. A new prophet, I. Here is the man to whom I am unworthy to untie his breeches.

Jacques. The duke is lustful, no?

Arnaud. Like apes in two cages smelling each other, like ferrets when the ground thaws and their testicles extend.

Jacques. He means to visit Aglaura no later than tonight.

Thomas. Hah? I should prevent that. Watch me do it.

Jacques. Joyfully, provided you use more of your steel, less of your tongue.

Thomas. Though he were my own father- hold, he is my father.

Arnaud. I understand two knaves' fatal drift, to kill him hotly rising in her chamber.

Disgruntled. She once spoke of a tunnel under her house.

Arnaud. A tunnel for her tunnel: perfect to our wishes! Where is it, nephew?

Thomas. How do you know that, friend?

Disgruntled. Do women speak? I do not know how or why, but I shrewdly suspect Aglaura hides lovers within, taking them from a vault hidden inside her room whenever needful to her lusts.

Thomas. Had any other man spoken, stabbing without words!

Arnaud. Where is it, nephew?

Thomas. I should not tell you.

Arnaud. You must.

Disgruntled. How? Distrusting friends?

Thomas. At least warn her beforehand.

Arnaud. To risk the duke discovering our plot?

Jacques. Expecting the duke this night, I'll emerge

With surety from the vault, and so what then

May happen I cannot yet tell, but it

Is far unlikely to be of much good

To Thomas' father.

Disgruntled. Agreed.

Thomas. Precious friends! I know you now.

Arnaud. The night and us bring death to evil dukes.

Lead on, two very friends together joined.-

Exeunt Thomas and Disgruntled

Hold, listen, Jacques.

Jacques. Yours.

Arnaud. I think two men tonight may die.

Jacques. The father with the son!

Arnaud. Two witty knaves succeed with that.

Jacques. But dangerous. I think we should send forth

The son before the father, kill the duke

At home, when he expects love's quietness.

Arnaud. We will reflect on this and more.

Exeunt Arnaud and Jacques

Act 5. Scene 1. Ziriff's house

Enter Aglaura and Jacqueline, the former with a dagger in one hand and a rope in the other

Jacqueline. Armed thus, you cannot dream of future joy.

Forbear henceforth all thoughts of happiness

Or moments of light joyance, in your dreams

To demons and forbidden creatures send

A message, never bandy peaceful hopes,

Resist all forms of charity, for with

This deed you banish semblances of good.

Expect mere blackness on your brightest day

And terror from your nights. On earth we hope

For justice only, which you murder here.

Aglaura. I'm in no mood to chatter. What I do

Is done with love for love.

Jacqueline. You cannot love yourself with those in hand.

Aglaura. Slave, dim the fatal chamber and let be.

(The vault is revealed

Jacqueline. Ah, what is that? A tomb?

Aglaura. Off with you and all candles from this room!

Jacqueline. I see you will be grave tonight.

Aglaura. How ghastly instruments of murder seem

To woman's gentle hands! Yet out they must,

Here for the sake of love. "One of us goes,"

My honor says, for honor is my friend

As much as Thomas'. What is murder, then?

A trifle, foam in tankards when we quaff

Sad love's forgetful silence. So must love

Kill, or else die. Forbear my love for him?

He is a duke, and yet a duke may bleed,

And yet I sweat, a greenish sickly girl,

Because with murder everyone is green.-

A noise! Put out all lights.

Jacqueline. Ha! Is it he?

(The lights are extinguished

I will receive laudations afterwards

In my great mettle. Steady, and strike true.

My fears live fresh inside, yet they must die,

For otherwise I am a monument

Forgotten, on which tears do not erode.-

He comes, he comes. Now, woman, rise, for once

The subject of man's wonder, not his scorn.

Some bravery, beskirted meekness! Show

Your courage this time in a death, not birth.

Wet fingers and the candles out! He comes.

Enter Thomas, rising from the vault

Thomas. Within love's arms of joy, there's day in night.

Aglaura. Strike, strike! (stabbing him

Thomas. Ha! Jacques?

Aglaura. Alive? Another way! (strangling him

Thomas. Not speaking more. (he dies

Aglaura. O, happy day! Brave deeds achieved, I think.

No man could have done better. Nerveless love

Once steeled my arm to make me fortunate.

Jacqueline. O, O, my deadly fears! Is the duke dead?

Aglaura. Some lights at last, lights, lights!

Jacqueline. I creep forth altogether tremblingly.

Aglaura. More noise?

(The lights return

Aglaura. Ha! Is it my fair love! Ah, ah, ah. ah!

Jacqueline. O, inescapable and deadly woe!

Enter Ziriff

Ziriff. Aglaura gasping! Do I come too late?

Aglaura. I have done what should make us melt in ruth.

Jacqueline. O, Thomas, stabbed and strangled by your hands!

Aglaura. Dead. Lights reveal our darkness.

Ziriff. The vault! Attending our impatient duke,

I could not free myself in time to warn.

Aglaura. Good. Ziriff will soon find his sister free.

Ziriff. A ladder here behind!

Exit Ziriff inside the vault

Aglaura. Tell me: can we go down to hell from there?

Jacqueline. O, pitiable, pitiable sight!

Ziriff. (within

I guess too clearly. Snake-brained Jacques' scarf!

Jacqueline. My brother living in this tragedy?

Ziriff. A plot, and Jacques triumphs in our shame!

Jacqueline. No, no, no, no. Hide me, remorseless earth.

Exit Jacqueline and re-enter Ziriff

Aglaura. Hum, what of that? You speak of nothing here.

Do you behold these hands? Red, stirring, wet.

Good brother, I will howl in every room

Because I am not dead, no tender corpse

Yet, but one to wring blankest stone to bleed,

Insensible to words.- Not cooler yet? O! O!

Look downward, Ziriff: can my love be dead

With hands and face so warm?

Ziriff. Be merciful to your sad mind, look up.

We have more knives and ropes than these in France.

Aglaura. Forever gone! Sit in the dark, to speak

I know not what, do as philosophers,

I mean, those wiser than an open grave.

The other night into these arms he leapt.

Look at him now! He was stiff then as well,

Now in another fashion, horrible,

Which spills out every thought of love from me.

Ziriff. Will you despair, with all our work undone?

Aglaura. The earth before me like a viper glows,

Cold reptile-lewdness snatching. Underneath

My mind smokes better. Do I contemplate

A globe of fire here, too? Below, above,

A fire within a fire!

Ziriff. Ho, raise your head. Cold vengeance beats on mine.

Aglaura. I'll hop-dance to that tune.

Ziriff. More tortures to think of, come, more and more!

Aglaura. The murder of my only love must find

Chastisements heaven never yet thought of.

Ziriff. That, sister, that, think of more beauties still.

Aglaura. Yes, something to deform men's nose and ears,

Make scorpions tremble, crack the watchful globes

Of infant violators looking down.

Ziriff. We'll make those still alive wish that they were

As quiet as he is.

Aglaura. An oracle!

Ziriff. A prophet!

Aglaura. A little clod of earth is fit for me.

Ziriff. Again?

Aglaura. No, I quit for this time. Farewell, farewell,

I'll see you at the brothel.

Exeunt Aglaura and Ziriff, carrying Thomas' corpse

Act 5. Scene 2. The duke's palace

Enter Arnaud and Jacques

Jacques. A glorious night!

Arnaud. Is Thomas, the heir I detest most, dead?

Jacques. If not, let me not laugh tonight.

Arnaud. You killed him from behind?

Jacques. A richer story: his own lover did,

Right in his face. At worst she will be blamed.

As we were climbing to Aglaura's room,

The bold impatient lover, blinking in

The darkness, stopped, then groaned. I fled at once,

With women's louder shriekings far behind.

Arnaud. Night's darkness is in love with murderers.

Jacques. Where is the duke?

Arnaud. Behind the curtain. Have we dropped again

From the original womb, as if sent

Into the world a second time to laugh?

Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!

Jacques. Events as proper to our purposes

As dead men in their graves. Is Ziriff here?

Arnaud. I think so.

Jacques. He comes at last, and grinning.

Arnaud. A goodly sign.

Enter Ziriff

Ziriff. My friends, I come to make you fortunate.

Arnaud. Some say that is so when we molder in

Our quiet grave.

Ziriff. Those who say so jest. Is the duke within?

Jacques. Within, but soon below.

Arnaud. Do hands hold steadily? Yet stiff for work?

Ziriff. Whoever doubts them lie much stiffer now.

Jacques. I dare speak for them.

Ziriff. To kill a duke's a trifle to me.

Arnaud. I hear him snorting. Knock him down amazed.

We carry sword-points thirsting for his throat.

Exeunt Arnaud and Jacques, enter the duke

Duke. A friend, my Ziriff!

Ziriff. Am I, or even should I be? Some say

You'll force Aglaura.

Duke. I'll visit her tonight. I must, you know.

Ziriff. Why?

Duke. She is my love.

Ziriff. What if you are refused?

Duke. Impossible!

Ziriff. She will. You will no doubt constrain her, then.

Duke. Should I let her people a new kingdom?

Ziriff. A padlock crosses what you aim at.

Duke. I'll break that, her, you, and others, never to be crossed in any way for any reason.

Ziriff. Should she refuse, you'll find her going where you'll never see her more, unless my right arm fails.

Duke. You will defend?

Ziriff. Believe it now, for I do not usually jest.

Duke. Jacques reveals the existence of a tunnel below your house, which may surprise her as I wish.

Ziriff. I'll show you a map of my house, how to enter it without suspicion.

Duke. I am on fire to learn more.

Ziriff. I cool most fires.

Exeunt the duke and Ziriff, re-enter Arnaud and Jacques

Jacques. Hum, very quiet suddenly!

Arnaud. I like such silence, perhaps breeder of an occasion to engender death to foes, infants of glory to us.

Jacques. Ziriff's work with circumspection: I recognize his manner, silent slithering on the grass, the open mouth at one hundred and eighty degrees, and the weasel disappears.

Arnaud. I trust him as I do the grave.

Jacques. He will dispatch with wonder.

Arnaud. But why so long?

Jacques. My leg itches when I worry.

Arnaud. This place puts strange thoughts in me. Why am I thinking of a pumpkin splitting in two? I'll be great should he succeed, no more a puny second but a root growing above the earth.

Jacques. Ha! His looks bespeak his happiness with ours.

Re-enter Ziriff, dragging out the duke's dead body

Ziriff. Heigh-ho, here's joy this time of day for you.

Arnaud. My brother, mangled, dead! I never lived

Until this instant.

Jacques. A coldness yielding warmth on warmth for us!

Sementhe: coy, cold dame, I am for you,

No more the nothing never noticed of.

Ziriff. Here, Jacques.

Jacques. We stick together now with blood, my friend.

Ziriff. You killed Aglaura's Thomas?

Jacques. I led him onward where Aglaura showed

Herself a man. Was that not well, my friend?

Ziriff. O, excellent, my friend! (stabbing him

Jacques. Ha! Ha! So treacherous? I sink to death.

Arnaud. What have you done?

Ziriff. Why, nothing, killed a traitor.

Jacques. Let me not die, not now, at fortune's height

From an unsteady base. (he dies

Arnaud. Ha! When did I command to murder him?

Ziriff. I thought you would be better pleased, my lord.

Arnaud. Am I not duke?

Ziriff. You should not boast of it, for I kill dukes.

Arnaud. (drawing out his rapier

Another minute till you bleed in hell.

Ziriff. Orbella is the subject of contention,

Because of whom you die as no wise duke.

Arnaud. Brave, onward, with some manly will!

(They fight with rapier

Ziriff. Your rapier's sharp.

Arnaud. On your throat famished till you drop away.-

Ziriff. Ha, from you I draw water still.

Arnaud. So delicate and cruel? Viper blood

Beats every second from your nasty heart.

Ziriff. My rapier never knocks but enters. No?

Ha, lazy trifler, come. I come, I come.

So far we merely play.

Arnaud. Ha! That was near.

Ziriff. Nearer. (stabbing him

Arnaud. Ha! Where or why, my coward life? You flee.

Ziriff. Done, done.

Arnaud. Our life's a bubble.

Ziriff. Ha, not dead yet?

Arnaud. Ah, death, the shame of nature! Stay awhile,

To chide my follies. Where is strong revenge?

Ah, no, he does not live. The crown- I die

But thinking of what I miss, so near still.

All's lost, ambition, all.

Ziriff. Die gazing on my smiling face, Arnaud.

Arnaud. Ambition: deadly will-o'-the-wisp!

I see I fall where I begun,

Just where I first begun. (he dies

Enter Paul and Lenu

Paul. Who cries so loudly?

Ziriff. What you must whimper on.

Paul. My brother, dead!

Ziriff. What a great swelling mighty man this was,

And what a nothing now! How soon a man

Beside his noontide shadow vanishes,

As if he never were! Ah, seldom hope

Has gladlier smiled on me: so, can I live?

Lenu. No doubt the lord deserved that.

Paul. Ha, flouting me?

Ziriff. Take up that little lump of vanity,

For he may serve. As for the rest, the bin

And shovel!

Lenu. The duke!

Paul. Jacques!

Ziriff. Hold, look about no more. There are no more.

Paul. Ha, slave, with help I'll cut away your heart.

Exit Paul

Lenu. Hah, what a feast of bones on Paris grounds!

Ziriff. Do not spend all the day in exclamations.

Can we raise forth an army?

Lenu. An army? No doubt if at your command.

Ziriff. After the news of the duke's death, believe

The commons will be up. Good, let them howl

And hurrry forward in large troops of death.

Lenu. But who is duke?

Ziriff. I am.

Lenu. Ha?

Ziriff. I hope you do not believe that small thing we saw is duke. We'll cut him, rive all his complaints with one flash of the sword. Who then remains? Orbella. Who is master of Orbella? To Frenchmen, my death-face.

Lenu. I am in all throughout your follower.

Ziriff. The best of friends! Best, best!

Exit Ziriff, enter Sementhe and the guards

Sementhe. I heard- O! Is my Jacques dead?

Lenu. Two lords and a lover, by great thoughts made secure, tread the way to the great nothingness. Alas, I would rather be as just so much burden than mouth a prayer for them. These two men of high actions, heavier in life than private, retired ones, beaming authority far off, look how they swell with air, bubbles, not so heavy now. This high man, erewhile lover mightily scorned by you, seems more like a courtier of the second form, unable to stand on his legs till a thousand parasites move them: the worms will make them move.

Sementhe. I repent of my coldness now.

Lenu. What has become of the ducal brother, what of that trifle within us, making us quarrel, laugh, and fight? Let him be what he will, I'll make bold with him, when before I bowed like all the others, for he is a very undukely thing now, which a bug can pierce.

Sementhe. I think I saw myself in that dead face.

Lenu. You should. As for this duke- remove

That glassy terror, now our broken piece.

He'll have a better epitaph than I.

Exeunt Lenu and Sementhe, the guards carrying the dead bodies

Act 5. Scene 3. The duke's palace

Enter Ziriff and Orbella

Ziriff. All quiet! Does the court sleep peacefully

Between two knots? Here is a light behind,

Where lust takes little care of form or age.

A glass? Fie, madam, that's a flatterer:

I will tell you more boldly what you are.

Orbella. What busies you at this late hour, my friend?

Ziriff. My business is quite bold. (seizing her

Orbella. Ha, no! Will you kill me?

Ziriff. That's not my pleasure now. But had I thought

Erewhile of your soul's state, you would not be

The fragrant whore you are.

Orbella. Ha, do you speak to me?

Ziriff. I think I do. Are you Orbella, queen

Of harlots, no fine duchess when she sleeps

With husband and two brothers of the same?

Orbella. A sad prologue. What act will follow that?

Ziriff. Should we not speak of ducal majesty,

Which you have made a wonder of the age?

Orbella. Sins like black grains stick on my nether lips.

Ziriff. A ducal cuckold in his household marked,

The bull unmoved, whose horns stick to his bed-post!

Orbella. True accusations singing me! No more.

Ziriff. Are those loins never cool? When should cheeks burn

Except with penance? Not with studied art

On a foul callet's bed! Had you forbeared,

You would be living happily with him.

Orbella. Where is my husband? I am frightened now.

He is well, no?

Ziriff. Oh, never better. If to be released

From sickness, treachery of itchy wives,

And the world's smart, be to be well, he is.

Orbella. What do you mean?

Ziriff. Pale cheeks reveal your tale.

Orbella. Dead?

Ziriff. And your son, too.

Orbella. O, no! Not so.

Ziriff. Both almost as dead as your sense of shame.

Orbella. Not Thomas, too!

Ziriff. I saw blood leave his cheeks forever, but

Why it did is strange when his mother whores.

Orbella. Ah, ah! This news may do some good, because

I can weep now, when I could not before.

Ziriff. A husband womaned nearly every day

By voluntary ones, involuntary

Ones, too!

Orbella. Retarded dew becomes quite ill a grave:

It makes the lodging colder in these nights.

Ziriff. Have you not thought of danger, when the man

Who killed your husband may kill you as well?

Orbella. Where can I fly?

Ziriff. But yet it is not safe to raise the court.

Orbella. Where is Arnaud?

Ziriff. Ha, why choose him for the succession? States

Sink on such bladders.

Orbella. Who else can save a frenzied duchess here?

Ziriff. Who else indeed?

Orbella. Dispute no more, my friend, but find Arnaud.

Ziriff. I will refuse that honor.

Orbella. What else do you suggest?

Ziriff. I must have you.

Orbella. Ha? Do you mock?

Ziriff. I can deserve to have you.

Orbella. Before my husband cools?

Ziriff. The frantic night is big with miracles.

Orbella. Off, Ziriff!

Ziriff. You'll love a husband yet: that is an oath

By which I live before another day

Finds me alone.

Orbella. No.

Ziriff. Have you already chosen? I'll be back.

Exit Ziriff

Orbella. Hear, Syrian craft, I know it is a plot

To force out my love's greatness. I suspect

You greatly fear Arnaud, as much as I

Fear monsters in the flesh. Do I guess right?

I think you mean no good to me today.-

Re-enter Ziriff below and enter Lenu above, carrying Arnaud's corpse

Orbella. What is your faithful servant carrying?

Ziriff. Did you not order me to find Arnaud?

(Lenu throws the corpse below and exits

Orbella. O! O! O! O! O! O! You have hurt him.

Ziriff. Past any hurt, the apple rotting in

Your giant mouth.

Orbella. I do not know my temper. I can do

Some wonders now, I think. I am mad, mad,

Bordello-mad, when duchesses go there,

With what you show. Ho, treason, treason; ho!

Ziriff. Hold! Daggers stop a mouth.

Orbella. Ha, will you murder more?

Ziriff. Here is your glass: behold your sins full blown:

No region unforesworn, and gladly, too.

May God forgive you soon, for I will not.

Like maidens, blushing in a garden, pluck

Each primrose of the wanton spring, you make

A dallying and thawing treasure of

Your lap, to choose again, though appetite

Be overfull with many tiny men.

Orbella. You rage because you are not one of them.

Ziriff. I dug into your husband to get you:

Now likely to be great, this may not be,

Lest enemies betray our government.

Orbella. Our government? What does the raver mean?

Ziriff. We'll marry.

Orbella. Ha? Give me poison.

Ziriff. To casual whores, death is no punishment.

It is the sense, the fears, the conscience of our harm

That make a profitable death.

Orbella. Then kill me now, be merciful, unless

You wish a crazed one on your mounting bed.

Ziriff. Weep yet again, wash out each grimy spot

Of sin to a primeval freshness.

Orbella. What is your wish?

Ziriff. One kiss.

Orbella. I'll make you die in pleasure of that kiss,

But first let me prepare.

Ziriff. More of your woman's arts?

Orbella. Where is my mirror?- There, in readiness

Of yours and only yours.

Ziriff. Come nearer.

Orbella. The nearest, love. (kissing him

Ziriff. Ah, treasures on each side!

Orbella. Not more?

Ziriff. Ah, death, death, death, your lips!

Orbella. True. Death. You guess at last right.

Ziriff. Ten scalding kisses from your poisoned lips!

Orbella. Is this no loving scheme? Forbidden man,

You die because you love. Could you not guess?

Ambition, sleep: what you achieve is dust.

Ziriff. Well. Many thanks for that. (he dies

Orbella. Sleep, sleep, forever, man, forgotten, too.

Enter Paul, Sementhe, and the guards

Paul. What have we here, a churchyard? Griefs atop

Each other piled!

Orbella. Is not the world so?

Paul. (drawing out his sword

Am I too late? Is Ziriff truly dead?

Orbella. You mock all eyes with courage. Look on him:

Have you beheld a sweeter corpse this year?

Paul. I no longer believe you are a woman.

Orbella. He sleeps, he sleeps, he sleeps, forever and

Forgotten,

All but his crimes, which may succeeding years

Remember, as the schoolboy with the rod

He dreads. May all good people at his name

Jump, in a stricken wonder gape and blink,

On their knees falling, praying loudly that

They will not be, even approach, what now

He has become. To all the bad undeaf,

May the mere sounding of his horrid name

Be an infection to unheeding ears.

Their cursing will help mine, so that henceforth

That name will be a terror to men's thoughts,

Inciting them to goodness, not the fear

Of punishments deferred or never seen.

Paul. I am the duke should that corpse be Arnaud's.

Orbella. It is.

Paul. I am the duke.

Orbella. Arnaud, could I recall you to this world!

No, that's a subject for more tears of pitch,

Not for our hope. We may not knit the rose,

When it is cut, back to the mourning stalk:

Preserve it in the bowl of water of

Our tears: such is love's tribute on your grave,

So that my violets only will grow there,

The herald of a newer afternoon,

From viciousness and worms free, to spring up

Eternal harmony.

Paul. I am the duke.

Orbella. Awake, all lustful maidens of the court,

Gaze on my tragedy and claw your cheeks

To thinner gaudy ribbons, famish lust

Out of your loins and breasts, behold the end

Of gaiety and murder.

Sementhe. I hear you, madam.

Orbella. Come, help me weep, and cry aloud the more

Till I dissolve into a muddy grave.

Sementhe. Our mothers should repent that they failed to

Command the nurse to place a rope beside

Our cradle, putting us from the first hour

Before our eyes the pains to be endured

In this foul gibbet-world.

Orbella. Have I mourned well enough?

Paul. I think so, madam. Will you still remain

Our mighty duchess?

Orbella. I would.

Paul. Then be my bride after interring these.

Orbella. We must all die: that is my comfort, sir.

Paul. I will command you to your happiness

And mine, as duke of all.

Orbella. The valiant Ziriff missed that.

Paul. Yes, but he was no duke.

Orbella. Ah, you are frenzied in the greatest haste.

Paul. Should I not be, as a duke who commands

What he asks for? What else should a duke do

But to command and get what he asks for?

Orbella. I am no happy woman fit to know,

Or one to answer wisely.

Paul. Orbella!

Orbella. When lewdly pressing, you bind all the more

My tongue of woe.

Paul. Look up, the world is here.

Orbella. Let me but grow to earth, a silly weed,

Retrieve it, and then drop it softly in

My final mound, forlorn and desolate.

Paul. No, in my heart.

Orbella. Where grief and death should be.

Paul. Tomorrow when bright heavens bleed on us,

We'll sorrow for the duke my brother, grieve

For Jacques, shed a tear for Ziriff, strike

Our breast-plate for Arnaud, your hand in mine.

Orbella. I think I can now, duke.

Paul. Bear out the corpses, slow defenders. You

For me must do much better, if I hope.

Sementhe. Come, madam, will you rise?

Paul. Up to my liking as her duke and love.

Orbella. I think I can.

Exeunt Orbella, Paul, Sementhe, and the guards carrying the corpses

Ideas in Geometry/Instructive examples/Proving Parallel Bisectors in Quadrilaterals

Proving Parallel Bisectors in Quadrilaterals:

Problem 9 :Explain how the following picture "proves" that if a quadrilateral has two opposite angles that are equal, then the bisectors of the other two angles are parallel or top of each other. In order for this to be true within our picture we first found that each shape has two right angles in them. This means that these angles have equal measures of 90 degrees. This satisfies the first part of the statement ( two angles that are equal) Our next step was to prove that the lines drawn in the picture are parallel. To do this we wanted to work with interior/exterior angles. We need to prove that two angles are equal in order to show that the lines within the picture are indeed parallel.

We looked at different shapes to see how this statement would work. In a square, and within a parallelagram, the lines are on top of one another. In a rectangle the lines are parallel. - we haven't exactly figured out how to do this, we have a number of different ideas of how to go about finding our solution. We are assuming that the line is bisecting the small angle within the dark grey shape and the white grey shape. This angles total measure is 45 degrees. We figured this out because when we bisected the top right angle into 45 degrees. We knew that the two angles added up to 180, and we had the measures of 90 degrees and 45 degrees leaving us with an angle measure of 45 degrees for the missing angle. We assumed that the line is a bisector, leaving us bisecting this 45 degree angle bisected into two 22.5 degree angles. This is the measure of the exterior angle that we are using to prove the lines are parallel. We repeated this process on the lower quadrilaterals, proving that the other exterior angle also equals 22.5 degrees. These two angles have the same measure, and they are exterior angles. If two exterior angles are equal, then the lines creating them are parallel. We proved that these two lines are parallel. Because these lines are parallel, and our quadrilaterals have two opposite angles of equal measure, this original statement holds true. The bisectors of the remaining two angles within the quadrilateral are parallel ( in this case) or on top of one another.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Cerastes. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Cerastes~enwikiversity that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:32, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

= Week 3, Lecture 3 =

The motivated and the emotional brain
According to Reeve (2009) when most people think of the brain they automatically think of it carrying out cognitive and intellectual functions, such as thinking and learning. However, while the brain does carrying out cognitive and intellectual functions (the thinking brain), it is also the centre of emotions and motivations – the emotional and motivational brain. I think Reeve made a really important point, as when I think of the brain I first think of it carrying out cognitive and intellectual functions, however, in reality the motivation and emotional brain are just as important. For example if we are completing a video game, such as Mario Kart (thinking brain) we might be doing it because we enjoy the challenge of winning (motivational brain) and the game makes us in a good mood if we win (emotional brain).

To understand brain-based motivational processes, motivational researchers spend their time:

•	Investigating how brain structures that are associated with motivational states become activated, •	Understanding how day-to-day events in people’s lives stir biochemical agents into action and

•	Mapping out which brain structures are associated with which specific motivational state.

One section of this chapter that I found interesting is that the brain is split into approach versus avoidance structures. For example yes I want to go drinking with my friends –approach (hypothalamus) and no I do not want to go bungy jumping, avoidance (amygdala). The table below outlines the key motivational and emotional brain structures associated with producing approach and avoidance.

 Approach Orietated Structures and their Motivational and Emotional States

 Avoidance Orietated Structures and their Motivational and Emotional States

 Tables based on Reeve, J. (2009). Understanding Motivation and Emotion. Unites States of America: Wiley.

Physiological Needs
Need “Any condition within the person that is essential and necessary for life, growth and well-being.” (Reeve, 2009)

I find the definition of need interesting, because I think some people, even some cultures take an essential need for granted. Some people take shelter or food for granted, while other people struggle for these essential items. I also think in Australia we over use the word ‘need’. I can not count the times when I have walked passed a child, sometimes even an adult, saying I need this toy or I need this game. In today’s society we do take our needs for granted and sometimes we say we need something when it is not necessarily essential.

I really like Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, I have learnt about this concept in a number of different classes, from law classes to communication to psychology and I think it’s amazing that this concept can be used in a wide variety of fields.

Our bodies consist of two-thirds of water and one thing that I did not know until reading this chapter is that when our water volume falls by approximately 2% we become thirsty. However, dehydration does not occur until a person loses 3% of their water volume. According to Reeve (2009) it is the loss of water, below this optimal homeostatic level, that creates the physiological need of thirst. It is also interesting to note that society tells us that it is recommended that we drink 8 glasses of water a day, however, there is not scientific evidence to support this. As a result in theory people are not necessarily being motivated by their body to drink the optimal amount of water, but by society’s expectations.

In regards to our eating habits, Reeve (2009) states that the environment influences a person’s eating behaviour, from the time of day, to stress to smell. Research also indicates that people generally eat more when they are in the presence of others, compared to when they are alone, often 50% more. I find this statistic interesting, as I always thought that I eat more when I am alone, however when I think about it I would say that when I am generally with someone they push me to eat more, as I do not want to seem ungrateful for the food that I have been given. However, I also think that other factors play a part, for example, I know that some people do not eat much on their first date, as they do not want to put the other person off or some people eat more than they usually would when they are alone and upset.

User:S.emp/Week 3, Turorial 1

=Week 3, Tutorial 1=

I am always really nervous in new tutorials as I am not sure what to expect. This class was really fun, we were able to start the tutorial in a interactive way, that broke the tension in the room. I have to say I have never thought of comparing my thumb to other peoples and I found out what while I am taller than most people in my class I have a small thumb, therefore, I appear to be slightly out of proportion.

Once the ice had been broken in the class, we got into small groups and were told to write our own definitions of emotion and motivation down and compare these definitions with our small group. I personally found it difficult to define motivation and emotion, however, I found it helpful to dicuss the concepts in our small groups. My small group’s final definitions for emotion and motivation were:

 * Emotion: Feelings that affect a person's behaviour; emotions are intense and short.

 * Motivation: Processes that give behaviour direction and energy.

It was really helpful to listen to the whole classes defintions of motivation and emotion and see the differences and similarities.

From here we were asked to discuss questions in our small groups that interested us about motivation and emotion. One question that really interests me at the moment is why do people cheat?. This question is interesting to me because I am doing my book-chapter on adultery.

Another helpful aspect of the class was discussing the strucutre of our textbook chapter. Below is an outline of the classes ideas

Structure:
 * Table of conents
 * Focus questions
 * Definitions/glossary
 * Core theories
 * Research
 * Chapter title
 * Summary of main points at the end of the chapter
 * Deferences
 * Resources
 * History

Learning features that can be included:
 * Case study
 * Pictures
 * Diagrams
 * Practical applications, for example, how is this applied in the real world.
 * Quiz, questions – either at the end of the chapter or after each main section.

I really liked the idea of how to do a quiz, James mentioned that you can do quizes that mark themselves in wiki, so if anyone knows how to do this please let me know and I will be extremely greatful.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Ashbose. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Ashbose~enwikiversity that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:29, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Information about wikiversity
Hi Resident Mario,

I saw your question in Wikiversity's colloqium. Did you already talk to some people? Since 2011 I tried to set up the Dutch wikiveristy. Unfortunately all content (5000 pages) were deleted. I got some help from user Abd of the English wikiversity. Now I'm setting up a new learning project. If you have any questions I will try to answer them. I'm also very curious about your writing. Cheers, Tim, Timboliu (discuss • contribs) 19:51, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi, sorry for the late response. I've gotten a bit dragged on with other things IRL, so I haven't had time to work on this, as I should. I'll add you to my second round interviews list! Resident Mario (discuss • contribs) 14:30, 26 April 2015 (UTC)

Sebastianish/Lesson3

V. Substantives e agetives
The Sebastianish system for nouns and adjectives is pretty much like the French one: it depends on gender, and got three forms. Nouns and adjectives do always have the suffix -um for masculine singular, -a for feminine singular and -es for plural.

The system for nouns and adjectives are strictly divided by gender. If you talk about a woman or a girl, you shall always use the feminine form of the adjective. If there's a boy or a man, you shall always use the masculine form. Also non-gender nouns are set together with adjectives in genders; like the word "child" - if there's a boy, you shall use "infantum". If there's a girl, you shall use the word "infanta". But mostly, the nouns usually have a definite form - like "casa" is always feminine, and "librum" always masculine. You see by the ending what gender the noun has. Most adjectives exist in both genders, except from the ones that are tied to only one gender (like mascolinum is always mascolinum, because it describes something that only have something to do with men - you can't say mascolina. If you for some reason want to describe a woman as masculine, you use the masculine form of the word; "una femina mascolinum").

Substantives e agetives

VI. Artíccolum determinevo
Like the English "the", we also have definite articles in Sebastianish. But we have a few more. The system is like in other Romance(-inspired) languages. We have these articles: O for masculine singular La for feminine singular Les for plural L'  before vowel, no matter of gender.

These are always used that way. Examples of use will follow below. O is used for masculine singular, and only that: "O bierrum froidum" - The cold beer La is used for feminine singular, and only that: "La casa piccola" - The little house Les is used for plural, and in plural, gender does not matter: "Les infantes piccoles" - The small children (both girls and/or boys) L'  is used for both genders in singular to avoid vowel crash: "L'amica bona" - The good (girl-)friend "L'hominum bonum" - The good man

VII. Artíccolum indeterminevo
The indefinite article is neither complicated. We have four forms: Unum masculine singular Una feminine singular Des plural Un'  before vowel, no matter of gender.

Artíccolum indeterminevo in sebastianum

Exercise 3:
A) Set the following nouns in definite and indefinite article:
 * La casa (house)
 * L'hominum/La homina (human)
 * La botiqua (store)
 * O filium (son)
 * L'infantum/L'infanta (child)
 * La roba (dress)
 * O mapum (map)
 * O professorum/La professora (teacher, professor)
 * La cesa (chair)
 * O librum (book)

B) Set the following adjectives in masculine, feminine and plural:
 * Bellum (pretty, beautiful)
 * Piccolum (small, little)
 * Grandum (big, grand, great)
 * Horriblum (horrible, terrible)
 * Leidum (ugly)
 * Rossum (red)
 * Gentilum (kind, nice)
 * Mignum (sweet, cute)
 * Viéggium (old)
 * Politum (polite)

I think that you guys have a great start. I think getting the angles measured is good, and I like the explanation that you guys have started. I would say just to keep working at it, and maybe see how if you break up the picture a little, and explain sub-pictures if that would be helpful at all.--Heather Brozowski Hbrozowski 19:19, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

-

Salve - Hi! (informal greeting) Commento vades - How are you? (litt. "how do you go?") Vado bona - I'm fine (litt. "I go fine") Gracies - Thanks, thank you E - And Tu - You (singular) Anque - Also, as well Sed - But Allora - So, thus Bonavenivo - Welcome!

Timber design

This is related to structural engineering.

Timber Design
Timber Design is process of designing structures (buildings) out of wood (referred to as timber in engineering). The design process is very similar as the process used to design steel structures. The major difference being that timber members (beams and columns), are usually rectangular, where-as steel members can come in a variety of shapes, such as I-beams, Angles, and HSS Tubes.

Background
Timber is one of the oldest building materials still in existance. One of the reasons is that trees are one of the only building materials that can be found almost anywhere in the world. Trees are very strong and ductile, which make them ideal for uses in large structures.

Trees are one of the only truely renewable resource. For every tree that is cut down several can be planted in its place (and in America, often they are) ,

Structures are made of Beams and Columns. One way to think of it is that the beams are the horizontal members, and the columns are the vertical members. A more scientific definition states that beams take Shear Forces and Moment foces, while columns take Axial Forces.

Design Process
To design a building, you must first design the members in the structure. The design process consists of first calculating the forces that are applied on a building, such as the Self Weight (Dead Load), Live Load, and Wind or Earthquake Forces (Seismic forces)). Once you have the forces that are applied to the building you, then need to find how much of that load the members (ie the beams or columns), can take. If the members can take more forces than those that are applied on it from the Weights, and Wind/Seismic, then your building is safe. If the forces are more than your members can take you have to go back, and redesign the members to take more weight; usually this involves choosing a member that has a greater cross-sectional area (ie a member that is deeper, or wider).

Beam Design
Consider a beam as follows.

Rising Tide

 * A rising tide lifts all the boats. And a partnership, by definition, serves both partners, without domination or unfair advantage. Together we have been partners in adversity. Let us also be partners in prosperity. —John F. Kennedy, Frankfurt, Germany, June 25, 1963

For decades, medical science has studied many aspects of the quality of life, such as lifespan, infant mortality, crime, obesity, and educational attainment just to name a few. The correlations between those aspects and environmental, behavioral, and genetic factors have also been of great interest to medical science. Epidemiologists are unique among health professionals in that they use powerful statistical techniques and careful research to distinguish actual causes from the mere correlations that become apparent.

Perhaps because of the rigor necessary in their science, it has only been in the past decade that epidemiologists began considering how factors from economics affect the quality of human life. Economics is often called the dismal science for good reason: controlled experiments in this most social or "soft" science are often impossible. For whatever reason, it was not until the publication in 2009 of the book The Spirit Level that epidemiologists carefully consolidated the documentation of the fact which had become unquestionably apparent in their peer reviewed scholarly literature: One economic factor, income equality, was a major—if not the foremost—cause of more than twenty separate concrete measures of human quality of life.

This revelation took place in the midst of one of the most substantial economic downturns in the previous centuries, after decades of increasing income inequality. The rich have been getting richer, the poor have been getting poorer, and the middle class has been getting smaller. But there is a new lining on the dark grey cloud, probably due in part to the very causations which had just been uncovered: the rich are only getting richer on paper. The actual value of the nominally greater wealth controlled by the upper 1% of income earners has, for perhaps the first time ever, been getting smaller. Eleven years ago, consumers represented two thirds of the economy, and the value of assets was increasing rapidly. Today, consumer spending is much closer to half of the GDP, and all classes of asset prices are growing so slowly that the outlook for the nominally ultra rich is much bleaker than it was when consumers were so much stronger.

Have we reached a turning point? Is this the beginning of the end of the class war? Will the ultra rich and corporations, who have won Supreme Court victories placing them firmly in control of the political process, now begin acting in their interest by instituting measures to correct our grossly deleterious income inequality, increasing the tangible value of their assets' appreciation by decreasing the proportion of their nominal wealth?

 * Will we as a society reach across the boundaries of class and political party to lift all boats, or will we all sink together?
