Cath. O me! accursed me! I come not here

To curse thee, nor to bless, nor yet presume

To dare pollute thy state by name of husband.

’Tis only but a common, human word

Belonging to the poor ones of this world:—

But to beseech the Holy Pope of Rome

To cover with corner of his mercy’s mantle

The daughter of his loins.

Hild. O, Peter, Peter, take this woman away.

Pet. Begone Woman. Thou art sacrilegious.
