Neat thing about that passage, which is not even my favorite from the play but is certainly beautiful (esp. in person) -- is that I actually cut it off mid-paragraph, and it's not a soliloquy even though it reads like one. Both somewhat odd choices I think. And it's from a5s2, which has itself a famous soliloquy earlier ... "So sweet was ne'er so fatal" EDIT: what I mean by 'reads like one' is that if you replaced a couple of words it could easily come off as a plea to the audience or to god not to judge him overharshly.
