Authors:
  • I do repent; but heaven hath pleas'd it so
    To punish me with this, and this with me,
    That I must be their scourge and minister.
    I will bestow him, and will answer well
    The death I gave him. So again good night.
    I must be cruel only to be kind.
    Thus bad begins and worse remains behind.
