King Lear, William Shakespeare
.... Kent responds, "See better, Lear,
and let me still remain" (I.i.160). Here, Lear is saying he never
wants to see Kent again, but he could never truly see him for who he

Lear's vision is so superficial that he is easily duped by the
physical garments and simple disguise that Kent .....
