Round 2: Tossup 6

This character is chided for being “sick of self-love” by his employer after criticizing another character as a “barren rascal.” This character muses “’Tis but fortune, all is fortune” in a scene where he attempts to decipher the line “M.O.A.I. (10[1])doth sway my life.” In a dark room, this character is told that “there is no darkness but ignorance” by a fool who introduces himself as Sir (-5[1])Topas. This character reads a letter stating “Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon ’em.” That letter professes Olivia’s love for this character and requests him to appear wearing cross-gartered yellow stockings. This character is declared mad due to a scheme headed by Maria and Sir Toby. For 10 points, name this steward in Twelfth Night named for his bad temperament. (10[1])■END■ (10[1])
