For, first—no sooner in, than he 's apprised
Fortunes have changed; you are all-powerful here,
The lady as powerless: he stands fast by her!
Duch. [Aside.] And do such deeds spring up from love alone?
Gui. But here occurs the question, does the lady
Love him again? I say, how else can she?

In her defence; dared outrage all of us,
Insult yourself—for what, save love 's reward?
Duch. [Aside.] And is love then the sole reward of love?
