Summary

This quote suggests that one can gauge the presence or absence of love in a relationship by the level of discomfort or awkwardness experienced during moments of solitude with their partner. When love is strong, being alone together feels natural and effortless. However, when love starts to fade, these moments become increasingly uncomfortable, highlighting the deterioration in the emotional connection between two people. It implies that the way we feel and behave in private with our loved one can reveal the state of our relationship.

Salisbury:Well, lords, we have not got that which we have:'Tis not enough our foes are this time fled,Being opposites of such repairing nature.York:I know our safety is to follow them;For, as I hear, the king is fled to London,To call a present court of parliament.Let us pursue him ere the writs go forth.What says Lord Warwick? shall we after them?Warwick:After them! nay, before them, if we can.Now, by my faith, lords, 'twas a glorious day:Saint Alban's battle won by famous YorkShall be eternized in all age to come.Sound drums and trumpets, and to London all:And more such days as these to us befall!
