Memorable Lines – Tranio, Act I

Filed under: Loyalty & Betrayal — Ms.M @ 1:42 am

In Act I, Scene 1, line 39 – 40 (written 1.1.39-40), Tranio says to Lucentio "No profit grows where is no pleasure ta'en. In brief, sir, study what you most affect." Tell, in your own words, what Tranio is saying? Do you agree with his message? Why or why not? Remember, this is after Lucentio has seen Bianca but, before he actually meets her. Also, what does this tell you about Tranio? Is he really as dim as he appears?
