Orsino’s view of love is that he is in love with love itself and he doesn’t care who it is as long as there is love in his life that he can hear songs and talk about how love could be painful and hurtful to him.
Orsino likes the pain that and feeling helpless for himself that’s why he asked feste to come and play the sad song for him ; he thinks the song is talking about him and maybe that’s why he likes it.
The sentence in the song saying
“My part of death, no one do true
Did share it”
He thinks he’s the trust lover ever but he’s not we know this because he’s changeable and we know the ending how he’s going to change his mind very quickly.
Feste doesn’t think Orsino is the truest love that lived, that’s because he is a very intelligent although he’s the fool in the play which they that they were not very smart people but here Feste is the most intelligent character in the play, because he knows everything about everyone because he knew the truth about Cesario and Orsino is changeable because he says ;
“Now the melancholy god protect thee, and thy tailor make thy doublet of changeable taffeta, for thy mind is a very opal. I would have men of such constancy put sea, that their business might be everything and their intent eveywhere”
Also he’s our guide in the play in the play and the only one not in love, He’s very witty he plays around with words and no one sees it because he’s very intelligent in doing so, there was two meanings for this quote; is that Feste is giving the duke a compliment telling him his mind is like a jewel; but but it really meant that he’s very shallow and his mind changes like the colour of the jewel
However Sir Toby is an unromantic earthly and unemotional he’s general attitude is physically sexual which is the opposite of Orsino, while Orsino is much more dramatic and emotional.
Sir Toby’s thinks love is entertainment because he’s a fun loving character sir Toby use personification and he says
“ im sure care is enemy to life”
This quote shows that he doesn’t care for anybody , sir Toby also uses a pun and he says
“Why let her except before excepted”
this is also use of legal language he makes allot of word plays when describing sir Andrew when he explains that he’s rich “he’s a tall man as any‘s in Illyria”.
He describes him as being tall when actually the hidden meaning means he’s rich. He uses made up words such as
“substractors”
this words play shows his strong character and confident. He reminds us of duke Orsino when he makes a rude joke using sexual innuendo “Sir Andrew plays with
Continue using word play when he says
“Castiliano vulgo! For here comes Sir Andrew Agueface”
this word sounds Spanish but it doesn’t have a meaning maybe it’s his rude it’s more likely to make sir Andrew trust him while he I actually making him look like a fool and using him for only his money and to buy him drinks it’s like him being like a “sugar mama”
He also seems a but smart because he uses metaphoric sexual innuendo in saying
“an thou part so, Sir Andrew would thou might’st never draw sword again”
He could be trying to confuse sir Andrew an he knows he wouldn’t understand and also he greatly enjoys the pleasure in making sir Andrew look stupid and ,making fun and laughing at him. Here’s a quote to proves Toby’s wittiness in making sir Andrew look like a fool
“excellent; it hangs like flax……..,and spin it off”
It’s obvious that his use in showing affection towards love is not as important to him as his use of sexual love which shows him as playfulll parson.
Maria’s might be using Love as a way to be climbing in social status she might be jealous at Malvolio and that might suggest why she does the letter prank on him this also helps her to win sir Toby as he says
“ill marry this wench for this device”
Her use of love is practical and physical just like sir Toby and that might be why he Maries her because they are similar in a way
Fabian said that sir Toby has married Maria at the end of the play act 5 scene 1. Sir Toby is sure of Maria’s love when he says
“she is beagle and the one that adores me”
from hunting man that’s probably compliment act 1 scene 3.
Maria plays with words she is showing sir Toby that she’s clever and that might lead to explain how sir Toby fancied her and married her.
Probably Maria’s actually cared for sir Toby and for his help therefore she doesn’t want Olivia to throw him out
“by my troth , Sir Toby , you must come in earlier o’ nights; your cousin , my lady , takes great exceptions to your ill hours”
Here this quote might have to ways of showing it ; it might be her as caring and affectionate way which then shows Maria’s feelings for Toby
Or as a warning for him.
