So Loschi says -- He no longer is a voet!
Speak on, surely you were not satisfied
With such an answer, I truly hope.
Denosini
That's true!
But nothing better learned. I found him in great exoit ement;
Two friends, who added their entreaties to mine, were
silm ced in anger.
Duke
Was
Andrea with him?
Cosini
No, my prince; it appears strange, but
Filippo's engagement, it seems, with Tertsina, is broken
His friends, say, he loves another maid.
Duke
who is she?
— Cosini
They do not know.
Duke
all hear more of this, I think, when Andrea is seen again.
Though truly, it is almost like a wrong, which mis divided fate
Sends me, that Filippo declines our summons, no 'tis more
Than that! It is as if a friend betrayed me!
For as a man can love his friend, so loved I him,
Who spoke to me through the laps of a friend, in words,
(His voice kreaks with emotion)
Which have since been proven lies, and yet they rang
Incomparably true!
They made me feel what I, myself,
Had never felt. They strirred me, as no unusual emotion,
No danger I had everausked, no death suffered on my account,
nothing I ever experienced in my life moved me like his pretty.
I should much have like to see him, who could with mere words,
Which now it seems are lies, make me feel thus.
So it appears, that this last night shall run
A very different course, from that I would have like to give it.
come, gent lemen!
Magneni
My lord, whatever be our fate tomorrow,
I think we still are far from, very far, from
Thanking of our last night on this earth,
