With only their two selves to care about

And use the wealth for: wealthy is the word,

Since Pietro was possessed of house and land—

And specially one house, when good days smiled,

In Via Vittoria, the aspectable street

Where he lived mainly; but another house

Of less pretension did he buy betimes,

The villa, meant for jaunts and jollity,

I' the Pauline district, to be private there—

Just what puts murder in an enemy's head.
