The young noble seized, and out[624] he was thrown

Like a dog;—he who never till that time had known

The harsh tone of insult. But come,[625] give me some wine;

When robbed of his money,[629] his honor,[630] his life,[631]

He found himself out on the streets,[632] treated worse

Than the veriest menial or slave.[633] May the curse
