She boasts, would sue in turn and be denied!

Love her? My own wife loves me in a sort

That suits us both: she takes the world's report

Of what my work is worth, and, for the rest,

Concedes that, while his consort keeps her nest,

The eagle soars a licensed vagrant, lives

A wide free life which she at least forgives—

Good Beatricé Signorini! Well

And wisely did I choose her. But the spell

To subjugate this Artemisia—where?
