There is none knows as I, but oh, my love!

Though it be hard to bear, yet is grief lighter

Than broken vows, and blighted honour, and laws

Made to sustain the State, yet overset

By one man's will. Dearest, we cannot go—

Nor thou; the State forbids it. I will pray

Thy father may grow strong again, and sit

Here at our hearth a guest; but this is certain—

To Bosphorus we go not. And I pray you
