placed beneath the basest circumstance?/ And modesty an exile made for money?" This is the strongest statement of the play’s philosophy. Knowing that Jonson put these words into the mouth of Celia proves what a vital role she plays in portraying his moral message. Whilst protagonist Volpone‚ a hedonist‚ indulges in as many pleasures as possible‚ often pursuing them vigorously. Celia is the exact antithesis. Her self-denial and self-restraint make her a perfect foil for Volpone as she exposes his complete
