Pleading another’s cause?
Lope. I might be shy
To plead in my own person—a reserve
That love oft feels—and pardons.
Viol. ’Tis in vain.
I will not own to an account of sighs
Drawn up against me without my consent;
So tell your friend; and tell him he mistakes
The way to payment making you, of all,
His agent in the cause.
