But Rachel, blue-eyed golden-haired aright,

Proving to be only Laban's child, not Lot's,

Remains yours all the same forevermore.

No whit to the purpose is your plea: you err

I' the person and the quality—nowise

In the individual,—that 's the case in point!

You go to the ground,—are met by a cross-suit

For separation, of the Rachel here,

From bed and board,—she is the injured one,

You did the wrong and have to answer it.
