The text that was written on the scarf:
SCENE II. Another part of the heath. Storm still.
Enter KING LEAR and Fool
KING LEAR
Blow, winds, and crack your cheeks! rage! blow!
You cataracts and hurricanoes, spout
Till you have drench'd our steeples, drown'd the cocks!
You sulphurous and thought-executing fires,
Vaunt-couriers to oak-cleaving thunderbolts,
Singe my white head! And thou, all-shaking thunder,
Smite flat the thick rotundity o' the world!
Crack nature's moulds, an germens spill at once,
That make ingrateful man!
Fool
O nuncle, court holy-water in a dry
house is better than this rain-water out o' door.
Good nuncle, in, and ask thy daughters' blessing:
here's a night pities neither wise man nor fool.
KING LEAR
Rumble thy bellyful! Spit, fire! spout, rain!
Nor rain, wind, thunder, fire, are my daughters:
I tax not you, you elements, with unkindness;
I never gave you kingdom, call'd you children,
You owe me no subscription: then let fall
Your horrible pleasure: here I stand, your slave,
A poor, infirm, weak, and despised old man:
But yet I call you servile ministers,
That have with two pernicious daughters join'd
Your high engender'd battles 'gainst a head
So old and white as this. O! O! 'tis foul!
Fool
He that has a house to put's head in has a good
head-piece.
The cod-piece that will house
Before the head has any,
The head and he shall louse;
So beggars marry many.
The man that makes his toe
What he his heart should make
Shall of a corn cry woe,
And turn his sleep to wake.
For there was never yet fair woman but she made
mouths in a glass.
A silk scarf will give a perfect finishing touch to any outfit, whether it is dressy or casual. It will make a wonderful unique gift.
My lovingly handmade painted scarves are not mass produced products. Each scarf is made one at a time and no two items are identical. That's the beauty of the handmade process. If the scarf has a slight imperfection, please remember to enjoy an artist's hand.
I'm using professional dyes and steam-fixing for great permanence of colors - this leaves the colors rich and the silk soft with the luxurious look and feel...
All of my scarves are gift packaged and ready to ship. If you are sending as a gift, I can add a matching tag with your special message; just make a note in the message to seller when you check out. (I do not include an invoice in my packages.)
The silk scarf can be washed in cold water with mild soap or shampoo, rinsed, gently wrung out and pressed dry.
