By this Poppaea's gleaming statues joined
With Nero's images—a shameful sight.685
Come, overturn them with indignant hands,
Too like in feature to her living face.
And her we'll drag from off that royal couch;
And then, with flaming brand and deadly sword,
Attack the princely palace of her lord.
ACT IV
Nurse [to Poppaea, who appears, distraught, coming out of her chamber]: Why dost thou from thy husband's chamber come,690
Dear child, with hurried step and troubled face?
