" "
Thou hast prevaricated with thy friend,
By underhand contrivances undone me:
And while my open nature trusted in thee,
Thou hast slept in between me and my hopes,
And ravish'd from me all my soul held dear.
Thou hast betray'd me.

Additional quotes by Nicholas Rowe

Your bounty is beyond my speaking;
But though my mouth be dumb, my heart shall thank you.

Is this that haughty gallant, gay Lothario?

And one false step entirely damns her fame.
In vain with tears the loss she may deplore,
In vain look back on what she was before;
She sets like stars that fall, to rise no more.
