Is your shift key broken?
King Lear went mad because he had expectations that were not fulfilled. (That C would act like G and R, that he would still be treated with kingly respect after moving to h is 2 other d'ters homes, stuff like that.))
Purpose for the recognising of C in the end scenes? Dunno.
You do the rest, OK?
