第3594章 LXXXVIII

"The astrologer is silent, loath to expose A matter that will work the doctor woe;

And would excuse himself with many a gloze:

But when he sees, he would the evil know, Argia will break faith with him, he shows, As soon as he shall from his threshold go.

Nor prayer shall soften her, nor beauty fire:

Corrupted will she be by gain and hire.
