Draw round my bed: is Anselm keeping back?

And Andrea's wife does not care for him.

“But do not let us quarrel any more,

No, my Lucrezia; bear with me for once:”

So, we see that Browning’s characters are in a conflict , they are in a cri tical situation and
they now try to cope up with their situation.

Browning could examine a character through a few psychoanalytical touches. His real
interest lay in the incidents leading to the development of soul. As soul dissection was his
favourite subject of study, so he does not even define the physical charms of his female
characters. We know of their beauty only by the passion which they excite. He was interested
in the study of the soul, in making a psychological analysis, in probing deeper into the mental
 processes of his characters, in analyzing their motives and in laying bare their souls before his
readers. He was interested in exposing the ‘inner man’ by painting the inner landscape of his
soul. It was merely for the purpose of “soul dissection” that he used and perfected the
dramatic monologue, the poetic form suited best for depicting the soul or psyche of his
characters.

To deal out with the critical situation Browning presents the whole of his case. Browning
shows us the past and present of his character and how this character gets involved in this
critical situation. So Browning unfolds the whole of the life of his character to make it
 possible to analyze the history of the character. This is Browning’s technique of case-
making . The stronger is the case, the interesting will be the poem.

Through the technique of case-making, browning dissects the soul of his character and this
technique of soul dissection helps the reader to understand the character and clearly see why
his character reaches to this critical juncture.

Your leave for one more last ride with me.”
