Shakespeare#2

In scene 3, Shakespeare used the word 'note' a lot again. For example Balthasar says, "Note this before my notes: There's not a note of mine that's worth the noting."(2.3.56-57). I find it hard to believe that a character such as Balthasar would use words like that, especially when Benedick and others have already placed so much emphasis on it. It must be a conspiracy! Either that or Shakespeare was just using words to make the play sound better. (Ok, obviously it's the latter, but conspiracy theories are more fun).
Also note in scene 2, when Borachio is outlining his plan, he includes in the list of hoped-for outcomes the death of Leonato (see 2.2.29). Why is this, I wonder?
It is also interesting to note how Shakespeare places a certain emphasis on the difference between military life and civilian life, without describing the military life. In the first scene of the play, the characters are returning from a military action, so Shakespeare emphasizes the change a little bit at that time. Now, at the beginning of scene 3, act 2, he states it again, through Benedick: "I have known when there was no music with him but the drum and the fife, and now had he rather hear the tabor and the pipe;..."(2.3.13-15). It is interesting that throughout (most of) the rest of the play, Shakespeare scrutinizes the frivolity of civilian life, particularly that of the upper class.
