Raim. What! thou! the austere,

The inflexible Procida! hast thou done this,

Deeming me guilty still!

Pro. Upbraid me not!

It is even so. There have been nobler deeds

By Roman fathers done,—but I am weak.

Therefore, again I say, arise! and haste,

For the night wanes. Thy fugitive course must be

To realms beyond the deep; so let us part

In silence, and for ever.
