You are their life, their idol, and their soul.

Conduct me home, and, with their aid, restore me;

And, that once done, we shall not need to treat:

For Veramond himself will send, and sue

For that alliance, which his pride now scorns.

Alph. Long ere that time, Victoria will be Garcia's:

Her father will not lose one moment's space,

To gratify his vengeance with my ruin,

If I would force him, this must be the time;

Which, since I now refuse, 'tis lost forever.—
