[Duke Cesare de Valentinois della Romagna comes to his side.
Just up and had your meal?
There is some sense in your strange hours when Sol
Is in Leone—night for day!
But, though your room be marble, what Inferno
Of flame to sleep through the bare hotness.
CESARE.
Father,
If you enjoy the fresher feel of night,
I bring an invitation you will welcome
From the Lord Adrian of Cornuto.
ALEXANDER.
Ah,
He has a vineyard under broad-leaved shadow,
Where gods could sup.
CESARE.
Where you will sup,
To-morrow evening.
ALEXANDER.
Baccho!
It will be cool. The country is a blessing
To think of when it darkens and revives.
