HIDDEN LOVE

“[Claudio]: For here’s a paper written in his hand, a halting sonnet of his own pure brain, fashioned to Beatrice. (Shows a paper) [Hero]: And here’s another, writ in my cousin’s hand, stol’n from her pocket, containing her affection unto Benedick. (Shows a paper). ” (Shakespeare 234). The beginning of Much Ado About Nothing, from Beatrice and Benedick’s view, is shown to be indifferent, straightforward, and consistent of fights that leave Beatrice bragging on how she always beats Benedick in everything; a champion.
