Claudio. Oh, heavens! it cannot be.

Isabella. Yes, he would give it thee, for this rank offence,

So to offend him still: this night’s the time

That I should do what I abhor to name,

Or else thou dy’st to-morrow.

Claudio. Thou shalt not do’t.

Isabella. Oh, were it but my life,

I’d throw it down for your deliverance

As frankly as a pin.

Claudio. Thanks, dear Isabel.
