From first to last—by such full utterance

My pent up soul perchance may find relief.

Por. Speak, Serafina.

Ser. You have not forgot

Neither, how that close intimacy of ours

Brought with it of necessity some courtesies

Between me and your brother, Don Alvaro—

Whose very name, oh wretched that I am!

Makes memory, like a trodden viper, turn,

And fix a fang in me not sharp enough
