:24:02
...until she'd set her mind
at rest.
:24:04
Friends, envious
of my happiness...
:24:07
...told her the truth.
:24:09
If you see friendship among
servants, don't believe it...
:24:12
...for it's sham.
:24:14
I praised your virtues,
talents, style and grace...
:24:17
...and then she showed such
kindly condescension...
:24:21
...that she rejoiced
at my regard for you...
:24:24
...and promised that
we would soon be married...
:24:27
...when she learned...
:24:28
...how pure were
your intentions.
:24:31
I thought she'd rage...
:24:32
...dismiss us both
and punish all the rest.
:24:35
But her high nobility
of blood...
:24:38
...her prudence and perfection
of discernment...
:24:41
...acknowledged
your true worth.
:24:43
How wondrous!
:24:44
How fortunate those who serve
so wise a lord!
:24:47
She promised we should marry?
:24:49
You question she'd show
her noble birth?
:24:56
I was mistaken!
:24:57
How stupid to suppose
the countess spoke of me.
:25:00
To think perhaps she loved me.
:25:02
A soaring hawk could never
stoop to such a prey.
:25:10
What are you muttering?
:25:12
Marcela, she spoke to me,
but didn't say she knew...
:25:15
...that it was I who left
her rooms last night.
:25:18
How prudent, for otherwise,
she'd have had to punish us...
:25:22
...unless that's what
she's done...
:25:24
...for marriage is the kindest
punishment for love.
:25:28
And love's most
honourable cure.
:25:30
- One you desire?
- Greatly.
:25:32
Confirm it.
:25:33
With open arms, which are
the twirls of love's sharp quill.
:25:36
What better flourish
than an embrace?
:25:52
How well you make amends.
:25:54
I'm pleased.
Those who reprove...
:25:56
...delight in seeing
the proof of reformation.
