A priest that does not fight, and cannot wed,

Yet must be dealt with! If the Count took fire

For the poor pastime of a minute,—me—

What were the conflagration for yourself,

Countess and lady-wife and all the rest?

The priest will perish; you will grieve too late:

So shall the city-ladies' handsomest

Frankest and liberalest gentleman

Die for you, to appease a scurvy dog

Hanging's too good for. Is there no escape?
