Half of these ills of Italy are feigned:

Your Pellicos and writers for effect,

Write for effect.

Luigi. Hush! Say A writes, and B.

Mother. These A's and B's write for effect, I say.

Then, evil is in its nature loud, while good

Is silent; you hear each petty injury,

None of his virtues; he is old beside,

Quiet and kind, and densely stupid. Why

Do A and B kill not him themselves?
