FAUST
One service pays the other thus.
MEPHISTOPHELES
We’ve but to make a deposition valid
That now her husband’s limbs, outstretched and pallid,
At Padua rest, in consecrated soil.

thither?
MEPHISTOPHELES
Sancta simplicitas! no need of such a toil;
Depose, with knowledge or without it, either!
FAUST
If you’ve naught better, then, I’ll tear your pretty plan!
