GOD I LOVE WEBSTER. I cherish The White Devil perhaps even more than the Duchess, if only for a.) the incredibly absurd scene where they discuss what would be the most fun thing to poison (prayer book! saddle-pommel! tennis racquet handle!) and b.) the fact that it is very funny that Diana Wynne Jones riffed on it in one of her Chrestomanci books, giving me a lot of fondness by association, but they're both such a delight.
