Beatrice And Benedick Alternate Ending

On the other hand, the infrequent dialogue between Hero and Claudio could be seen as less interesting in terms of language. Hero doesn’t speak much – in fact she only speaks one line in the opening scene where she is present throughout- “My cousin (Beatrice) means Signor Benedick of Padua” (1.1.35) - this is to help the messenger understand what Beatrice has just said.

(2.3. 154-155)” The result of this grand deception is that Benedick is deceived into thinking that Beatrice loves him and he decides to return that love back. The same lies are fed to Beatrice in order to deceive her as well into loving Benedick. This deception is brought to life when Hero sends Margaret to tell Beatrice that Hero and Ursula are in the orchard speaking about her. The deception is woven
