Gov. Machiavel speaks oracle; what says
Antonio?

Ant. Nothing.

Gov. How?

Ant. Nothing.

Mach. It takes; revenge,
I hug thee; young lord, thou art lost.

[Aside.

Gov. Speak, Antonio, your counsel.

Ant. Nothing.

Gov. How?

Ant. So;
And could my wish obtain a sudden grant
From yon tribunal, I would crave my senses
Might be all steeped in Lethe, to forget
What Machiavel has spoken.
