And had you loved me, I could soon devise

Some specious reason why you stifled love,

Some fancied self-denial on your part,

Which made you choose Luitolfo; so, excepting

From the wide condemnation of all here,

One woman. Well, the other dream may break!

If I knew any heart, as mine loved you,

Loved me, though in the vilest breast 't were lodged,

I should, I think, be forced to love again:

Else there 's no right nor reason in the world.
