If he had seemed eager to tell his friend's secrets would not the Duke distrust him and suspect some self-interest on his part? What did his mention of Thurio's suit do for himself? Compare the nature of the two friends' talk; how that of Protheus gives a better impression of himself than is true, that of Valentine, a worse.
Why does outlawry bring out the superiority of Valentine? Does it serve also to bring out the inferiority of Protheus? How does outlawry serve to defeat the purposes of the Duke and Thurio and bring about the conquest over them of Valentine? How does Thurio's nature inure to the credit of Valentine's with the Duke? Does outlawry here represent the injustices of civic life? To what degree?
Proteus thought that if he could get rid of Valentine he might make Silvia fond of him, especially if the Duke insisted on her enduring Sir Thurio's tiresome chatter. He therefore went to the Duke, and said, "Duty before friendship! It grieves me to thwart my friend Valentine, but your Grace should know that he intends to-night to elope with your Grace's daughter."
