When father and daughter are finally reunited, it is with romantic poetry that Lear embraces the notion of being imprisoned with Cordelia forever.
'Come, let's away to prison:
We too alone will sing like birds I' the cage;
When thou dost ask me blessing I'll kneel down
And ask of thee forgiveness; so we'll live,
And pray, and sing, and tell old tales, and laugh
At gilded butterflies...'
It is a beautiful, impossible dream and no girl who ever loved her father can hear it with dry eyes.
