I am Duchess of Malfi still.
Man is most happy, when his own actions are arguments and examples of his virtue.
I have long served virtue, And never ta'en wages of her.
Physicians are like kings- They brook no contradiction.
See, the curse of children! In life they keep us frequently in tears, And in the cold grave leave us in pale fears.
Do you not weep? Other sins only speak; murder shrieks out. The element of water moistens the earth, But blood flies upwards and bedews the heavens.
