This shows you are above,
You justicers, that these our nether crimes
So speedily can venge.
– William Shakespeare
King Lear, Act 4, Scene 2. Albany indicates that he is a believer in justice, especially divine vengeance, when a messenger announces that Cornwall has been killed after he blinded Gloucester. This is poetic justice at work. Cornwall dies from a stab wound inflicted by his own servant who tried to stop his torture of Gloucester. Albany view this as heavenly retribution.
