[antony.] for brutus is an honourable man,
so are they all, all honourable men—
come i to speak in caesar’s funeral.
he was my friend, faithful and just to me.
but brutus says he was ambitious,
and brutus is an honourable man.
he hath brought many captives home to rome,
whose ransoms did the general coffers fill.
did this in caesar seem ambitious?
when that the poor have cried, caesar hath wept.
ambition should be made of sterner stuff.
yet brutus says he was ambitious,
and brutus is an honourable man.

i thrice presented him a kingly crown,
which he did thrice refuse. was this ambition?

When i was young enough to still spend a long time buttoning my shoes in the morning, i'd listen toward the hall: daddy upstairs was shaving, in the bathroom, and mother downstairs was frying the bacon. they would begin whispering back and forth to each other up and down the stairwell. my father would whistle his phrase, my mother would try to whistle, then hum hers backi drew my buttonhook in and out and listened to it -know it was "the merry widow." the difference was, their song almost floated with laughter. how different from the record, which growled from the beginning, as if the victrola were only slowly being wound up. they kept it running between them, up and down the stairs where i was now just about ready to run clattering down and show them my shoes. what is the effect of the parallelism used in the above excerpt? it establishes the rhythm of a duet to echo the song. it expresses the same ideas. it mirrors opposite ideas. it is a paradox.
