Beckoning him. Alas! his errant brain

Had clothed me, too, with grace that I had not,

And then misjudged me. Yea, I know the world

Imputes to me adultery and lust;

There is a doom on queens as well, it seems,

To have each action weighed by vulgar minds,

Criticized by the multitude; their names,

Toys, with which fools have grown familiar:

Yet who would waste denial on this mob

Of idle chatterers whose souls are slime.
