"And I charge them. I knock two breathless and run a third through the body. One lets off of me: Paf! and I retort..."

There is no significant reason why I chose this portion of the dialogue except for that I like it. I love the way that Cyrano speaks because of the wit that he possesses. Anyone who could read this play would realize that Cyrano speaks in eloquent language that is hardly heard today. Where did that language go? Over centuries, English has changed quite a bit. For instance, the use of "tis, doth,  twas" was very common in the seventeenth century, but  now if someone was saying those words we would assume he/she is a part a role playing game club. I wonder what would happen if, for a day, we all spoke in 1400's English; tis a good question.
