The liar.

Tuneless
It's with lying that you find the way to dissimulate.

Bramble What! All the caresses that she gave me for ten years were only to have my wealth.

While you permitted her to caress, so you could have hers.

A woman who hopes to outlive her husband is very unnatural.

Tuneless
For a man to wish to live longer than is wife is very—natural.

Bramble

Tuneless
While you have an innocent tenderness for her niece.

Bramble
Heaven will punish her and all those who wish the death of others.
Such people always die first.

Tuneless
Good. You will both predecease the other.
