The Avenged Women or The Feigned Infidelities

Ah! suffer me to embrace you;
And you, dear neighbor.

Ah! that is enough; for pity's sake,
How you embrace!

Whoever finds this moment,
Must surely enjoy it with ravishment.
We need four place settings. What is the servant doing?

You know, she is absent.

What pleasure, to spend three hours with you!

With Madame Lek! Well, do you hear that?

How sweet the moments will be!
Since they flow by near you
And the amiable President's wife.

That is perhaps yours.

Let us sit at the table.
What wine are you giving us?

It is wine from this year.

My wife, the best, in such a sweet meal.

The best! but it is that...

You seem dismayed.
Ah! here is the fright that takes you... Learn
That she is afraid of spirits.

Yes, I am not brave at all.
In any dark recess my senses are astonished,
And I cannot go all alone to the cellar.
