Act 1 Scene 1 KING LEAR - Since now we will divest us both of rule, Interest of territory, cares of state,-- Which of you shall we say doth love us most? GONERIL - Sir, I love you more than words can wield the matter; Dearer than eye-sight, space, and liberty; Beyond all manner of so much I love you. KING LEAR - We make thee lady: to thine and Albany's issue. Our dearest Regan, wife to Cornwall? Speak. REGAN - Sir, I am made Of the self-same metal that my sister is, And prize me at her worth. In my true heart I find she names my very deed of love; Only she comes too short. KING LEAR– My daughters, since I’m about to give up my throne and the worries that go along with it, tell me which one of you loves me most. GONERIL- Sir, I love you more than words can say. I love you more than eyesight, space, and freedom; beyond wealth or anything of value. KING LEAR - This land will belong to your and Albany’s children forever.—And now what does my second daughter Regan, the wife of Cornwall, have to say? REGAN - Sir, I’m made of the same stuff as my sister and consider myself just as good as she is. She’s described my feelings of love for you precisely, but her description falls a little short of the truth.

Scene title KING LEAR - To thee and thine hereditary ever Remain this ample third of our fair kingdom; No less in space, validity, and pleasure, A third more opulent than your sisters? Speak. CORDELIA - Nothing, my lord. KING LEAR - Nothing! CORDELIA - Nothing. KING LEAR - Nothing will come of nothing: speak again. CORDELIA - Unhappy that I am, I cannot heave My heart into my mouth: I love your majesty According to my bond; nor more nor less. KING LEAR - You and your heirs hereby receive this large third of our lovely kingdom, no smaller in area or value than what I gave Goneril. Now, you, my youngest daughter, my joy, speak. CORDELIA - Nothing, my lord. KING LEAR- Nothing? Cordelia - Nothing. KING LEAR - Come on, “nothing” will get you nothing. Try again. CORDELIA - I’m unlucky. I don’t have a talent for putting my heart’s feelings into words. I love you as a child should love her father, neither more nor less.
