    Unlike Cordelia, Edgar seems unwilling to ask the gods to reverse his father’s fate, insinuating that he values justice over mercy. The difference in the way that these two characters alone approach the gods reiterates the notion that interpretations of the pagan gods’ natures are not rooted in scriptural evidence, but in the images of the believers themselves. Albany, like Edgar, also ppears to consider the gods “just.” “This shows you are above,” he exclaims, “You justicers, that these our…
