1. Build up a picture of Richard from what other people say about him.
             Anne's sees Richard as a heartless evil man, incapable of love and compassion. She also sees that he does not care if people have to be killed in order for him to secure his place on the throne. Her view of Richard is articulated with her curses, often referring to him as a devil. She knows that he is the one behind the death of her husband and father-in-law and still accepts his ring.
             Anne: What black magician conjures up this fiend
             To stop devoted charitable deeds? (p28)
             Anne: What, do you tremble? Are you all afraid?
             Alas, I blame you not, for you are mortal,
             And mortal eyes cannot endure the devil.

             Thou hadst but power over his mortal body -
             His soul thou canst not have; therefore, be gone, (p29)
             Anne: Foul devil, for God's sake, hence, and trouble us

             O God, which this blood mad'st, revenge his death!
             O earth, which this blood drink'st, revenge his death!
             Either heaven with lightning strike the murd'rer
             Or earth gape open wide and eat him quick,
             As thou dost swallow up this good King's blood,
             Which his hell-governed arm hath butchered! (p29)
             Anne: Villain, thou know'st nor law of God nor man -
             No beast so fierce but knows some touch of pity. (29)
             Anne: O wonderful, when devils tell the truth! (p29)
