I would just like to commend Shakespeare on his insults, namely in The Tempest because that's what we're reading. Seeing as this is a comedy, I don't feel bad emphasizing the insults as one of THE BEST parts of the play. They're funny, witty, and abundant. Here are a few of them I picked out for your enjoyment in celebration of being DONE with this unit.
Hang cur, hang, you whoreson, insolent noisemaker!Hell is empty and all the devils are here.
Toads, beetles, bats, light on you.
Watch out he's winding the watch of his wit, by and by it will strike.
What strange fish hath made his meal on thee?
Most wicked sir, whom to call brother would even infect my mouth
What have we here?, a man or a fish, dead or alive ?
i like the scene with trinculo caliban and stephano that last quote was in

This is a really amusing list Fran! People should try to start using these every once in a while...
