      It's those one-liners that reassure us comedy is not dead, ahinton!
      "...the isle is full of noises,
      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                    on reflection I'm not really sure why I was suspicious - I guess its very plausible and may yet happen (sorry for spoiling it)

                      It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.
