Porcia. And must we part so quickly?—

Serafina. When does happiness

Last longer?

Alv. Never!—who best can answer that?

I standing by, why ask it of another?

At least when speaking of such happiness

As, perjured woman, thy false presence brings!

Ser. Alvaro, for Heaven’s sake spare me the pang

Of these unjust reproaches.

Alv. What! unjust!
