Much Ado About Nothing at Dalton

what are the remedies for such paternal pain?

The day after the fateful non-ceremony, they were in front of the Andersons' house, Mr Leonard and his brother Antony, still very nervous, talking about the events of the previous day.

"If you continue in this way, my brother, you will end up killing yourself with nervousness. Sensible not

Yeah, getting carried away by nervousness and sadness. " Antony Anderson said, worried about his brother walking around in agony.

Without stopping walking, Leonard Anderson, looks directly at his brother and with a shake of his head and a nervous voice, he replies "Enough of advice, please !!!! At the moment, they simply pass through my mind and my heart. Don't give me any more advice, at the moment I just need a friendly shoulder, my brother! " and with a defeated sigh and looking down at his hands, mr. Leonard continued his outburst:

"Show me a father who his son idolized as I idolized mine, who, like me, had undone the great fortune of owning him, and orders him to speak to me of patience. In width and breadth, he measures his sadness and mine, letting the misfortunes of both correspond in such a way that mine and his end up confused in the aspect and shape and in all the minutiae ... If he smiles and says "Hello ! " instead of regretting it, ordering the pain to continue its way, mending misfortune with proverbs: bring me this man, so that patience may he teach me. " Leonard raises his head, and looking steadily into his brother's eyes, continues his speech "But there is no one like that. No, my brother ... Men only give advice, they only try to console, when others are in pain. But if they happen to feel them, they come, in passion their advice is transformed, which, shortly before, to cholera indicated effective medicine and they proposed to tie irresistible madness with a tenuous thread, with hollow words, to calm the agony and the pain with the wind. No, no! It has always been the habit of men to speak of patience to those who are under the burden of pain. "

Antony Anderson, took his brother by the shoulders and was about to say something to try to calm him down, when he was sharply interrupted by Leonard "Please! Leave me alone! I am flesh and blood. There was never a philosopher who endured any toothache, even though he wrote divine works. " And with a sudden movement, he removed his brother's hands from his shoulders.

Accepting that his brother would not settle down anytime soon, Antony Anderson tried to advise again, calmly in his voice, "Do not at least bear the whole burden; may your offenders also suffer. "

Leonard, pondering his brother's words, takes a deep breath "You are right on that point, my brother! ... It is advisable to do as you suggest. My father's heart tells me that Blaine was slandered, and that young Kurt will know. " And with a new conviction in his voice, he continues "... And the prince and all the people who have dishonored him have joined".

Noticing the arrival of Prince Don Davis and young Kurt, Antony touched his brother's arm and spoke in a lower tone alerting Mr. Leonard of their presence. Behold, Claudio and the prince are coming in a hurry. "

Ignoring the uncomfortable situation, don David approaches the Anderson brothers and greets them, as he would on any other normal day "Good morning, gentlemen!" and is accompanied by the cordial greeting of the young friend Kurt "Gentlemen!" who, along with the good morning, made a respectful courtesy to you. " Good morning to everyone".

Trying to stay as calm as possible, sir. Leonard says to the two newcomers, "Listen to me, gentlemen." But he is interrupted by don David, who dryly says he is hurried and busy. "Forgive me, sir. Leonard, but we are in a hurry ".

Outraged by such an attitude by the prince, the agonized father, promptly replies, "Is this so now, my lord? Hurry? Good morning and do well ??? " And with a negative shake of the head and hands waving nervously, Leonard continues, "... Now you're in such a hurry that you don't even have a minute to spend with an old man?"
