Beautiful daughter of love, I am a slave of your charms.With one word alone you can console my suffering.
Come and feel the quick beating of my heart.With one word alone you can console my suffering.
- I laugh heartily, for these tales cost little. - (To speak thus of love!)
- Believe me, I can appreciate the worth of your game. - (That villain spoke of love to me like that!)
- Quiet! Weeping is useless. - Unhappy heart, do not burst! - I've heard such jokes before, handsome sir.
- Beautiful daughter of love, I am a slave of your charms. - I laugh, sir. - Now you know he lied. - My poor heart!
- Only you can console my suffering… - Hush and let me avenge you. It will be swift and deadly!
- I know how I will strike him down. - I laugh, sir… - My betrayed heart! - Come and listen to my heart…
Listen! Go home.. Take gold, a horse, and some men's clothing I laid out for you. Go to Verona. I'll be there tomorrow.
Twenty scudi you said? Here are ten.The rest you'll get after. He will stay here?
- I will return at midnight. - It's not necessary. I can throw him in the river myself.
Do you want to know mine as well?He is Crime, I am Punishment.
- And it will rain soon. - Even better! Sleep in the stable, in hell, wherever you want.
- Oh, thanks! - No, leave. - With such weather? - It's twenty scudi !
I'm happy to offer you a room.If you'd like to see it, let's go.
- One sleeps in the open air? Good, good! Good night. - Sir, may God keep you!
Woman is fickle, like a feather in the wind,she changes her words… and her thoughts…
- That young man is lovable indeed. - Oh yes, he brings us twenty scudi.
- Only twenty? That's little. He's worth more. - Bring me down his sword, if he's asleep.
I cannot reason any longer! Love draws me onward!Forgive me, father.
He looks like Apollo. I love him, and he loves me.Let him rest… let's not kill him!
Because once I've cut his throat,I must put your Apollo inside it and throw it in the river.
- I'll bet I can get you the money and still keep him alive. - I think that's difficult.
You already have money from the hunchback.You're meeting him later. Just kill him and take the rest!
Kill the hunchback?! What the devil did you say?I'm perhaps a thief? A bandit? He paid me, I'll be true to him.
- Have mercy on him. - He must die. - I'll make him flee. - (Good maiden!)
- We'll lose the money. - True. - Let it be. - We must save him.
