What better had been done; the stars so ruled it—

Yea, providence that rules the stars. Well then,

What next? Alvaro, I would speak of this;

And if ’t be right I owe you any thing,

Be it for this one boon, a patient hearing.

Listen to me—

I never draw a breath but ’tis on fire

With Juan’s vengeance; never move a step

But think I see his fierce eyes glaring at me

From some dark corner of this desolate house
