As that you could, I have no doubt at all!

O you two rare ones! Male and female, Sir!

The male there smirked, this morning, 'Come, my boy—

Out with it! You've been crossed in love, I think:

I recognize the lover's hangdog look;

Make a clean breast and match my confidence,

For, I'll be frank, I too have had my fling,

Am punished for my fault, and smart enough!

Where now the victim hides her head, God knows!'

Here loomed her head, life-large, the devil knew!
