'Tis Aquilant's, 'tis Norandino's will A thousand tortures shall their guerdon be:
But Gryphon, who the dame alone can ill Excuse, entreats for both impunity;
And many matters urges with much skill.
But well is answered: and 'tis ruled, to flea Martano's body with the hangman's scourge, And only short of death his penance urge.
