Angelo proposing his exchange to Isabella
Exchanges of letters, comic performances, permissions and sexual favours; Samuel Johnson, Shakespeare’s Measure for Measure, a poem by Jesus, Walt Whitman’s erotic exchanges with the sea; Gilbert and Sullivan, Guys and Dolls, a French children’s song, the Incredible String Band and the Lovin’ Spoonful, 33 seconds of the Beatles, and finally Beethoven.
"Howler and scooper of storms! Capricious and dainty sea!"
