I think this is what you need, but I'm not going to spell it out for you.

Well, as an example, in Hamlet, Polonius asks Hamlet "What are you reading, my lord?" and Hamlet replies "Words." Also, in Much Ado About Nothing, the whole idea is about an innocent girl being denounced by a man corrupted by his lord's evil brother. That's pretty serious. Those are just a ouple examples. Helpful? I hope so!
