page 6 of 170 (03%)
Gaspero:

No, it may be
He has some [pe]tty Lordship to retire to;
But thus he hath done; now 'tis fit, _Melitus_,
The Senate should be thankful, otherwise
They should annihilate one of those Laws
For which this Kingdome is throughout the World
Unfollowed and admired.

Melitus:

What Laws are those, Sir?
Let me so much importune you.

Gaspero:

You shall,
And they be worth your knowledge: briefly thus:
Who e'r he be that can detect apparently
Another of ingratitude, for any
Received Benefit, the Plaintiff may
Require the Offenders life; unless he please
Freely and willingly to grant remission.

Melitus:

By which strict Law, the Senate is in danger,
Should they neglect _Gonzalo_?
