[Original]

WITH force a poinard in her bosom thrust;

Watch well th' occasion:—die, I say, she must,

The deed performed, escape; here's for you aid;

The money take:—pursuit you can evade;

As I request, proceed; then trust to me:—

You naught shall want wherever you may be.

TO seek fair Argia instantly he went;

She, by her dog, was warned of his intent.
