Sir Toby says he will convey the message.
Fabian arrives with Viola. She and Sir Andrew are equally
terrified. In
order to coax them into fighting, Sir Toby tells
each one that the other promises not to hurt him.
NOTE: A amateurs nude sequence like this practical joke on Sir Andrew and
Viola serves to remind you that Shakespeare had an amateurs nude actor's
understanding of stagecraft. The comedy of this passage is
mainly physical. It provides amateurs nude wonderful acting opportunities for
the players. Try to imagine how amateurs nude a good comic actor would
portray Sir Andrew's swift shift from swaggering challenger to
fearful amateurs nude coward, or what tone of voice the actor playing amateurs nude Sir Toby
would use to frighten his two amateurs nude victims.
The two trembling adversaries reluctantly inch towards each
other. Just as they are about to clash, Viola cries &amateurs nude quot;I do
assure you 'tis against my will." At that moment, Antonio walks
in. He thinks he sees his friend Sebastian being forced to
engage in a sword fight. Antonio leaps to his friend's
rescue.
Sir Toby steps amateurs nude in to confront Antonio, possibly because he

just before the officers drag him off, Antonio rebukes his
friend. in doing so, he says the name Sebastian.
Now it is Viola's turn to be stunned. She could see that
this man amateurs nude believed he knew her. What's more, he called her
Sebastian. Could she, dressed as a man, have been mistaken for
her brother? She amateurs nude is
hopeful, but cautious. She still has no
proof that her amateurs nude brother lives.
NOTE: Contrast Viola's reaction to being called by her
brother's name with Malvolio's response to finding Maria's
letter. Each is being told what he or she wants amateurs nude to believe.
Viola wisely realizes that things are not always what they
appear to be. Malvolio lacks that wisdom. Therefore, Viola can
keep her balance in a difficult
