"Beatrice" performed by Octavia Selena Alexandru. Beatrice (ACT II SCENE I) "Too curst is more than curst.", Note:A Monologue with a twist, using Leonato's lines as her (Beatrice) own."Too curst is more than curst: I shall lessen God's sending that way; for it is said, 'God sends a curst cow short horns;' but to a cow too curst he sends none.So, by being too curst, God will send ME no horns.Just, if he send me no husband; for the which blessing I am at him upon my knees every morning and evening. Lord, I could not endure a husband with a beard on his face: I had rather lie in the woollen.I may light on a husband that hath no beard. What should I do with him? dress him in my apparel and make him my waiting-gentlewoman? He that hath a beard is more than a youth, and he that hath no beard is less than a man: and he that is more than a youth is not for me, and he that is less than aman, I am not for him: therefore, I will even take sixpence in earnest of the bear-ward, and lead his apes into hell.Well, then, go I into hell?Beatrice. No, but to the gate; and there will the devil meet me, like an old cuckold, with horns on his head, and say 'Get you to heaven, Beatrice, get you to heaven; here's no place for you maids:' so deliver I up my apes, and away to Saint Peter for the heavens; he shows me where the bachelors sit, andthere live we as merry as the day is long."

Here, Damian Lewis performs Antonyโ€™s lines from Act III, Scene 2 of Julius Caesar.
