"'Io perdei: l'augusta figlia A pagar, m'a condemnato; Ma s'e ver the a voi somiglia Tutto il moudo ha guadagnato." Her danger was over, she was a mother, and the attentions of disinterested friendship were no longer indispensable. She herself about this time met with a deep affliction.
DOÑA MATILDE. Alguien ha de lavar lo que emporquemos, sin embargo. DON EDUARDO. Preciso ... pero lo harás tú. DOÑA MATILDE. ¡Yo! DON EDUARDO. ¿Quién quieres que lo haga en tanto que no tengamos con qué pagar a otra mujer? DOÑA MATILDE. ¡Y se me llenarán de grietas!

In his perplexity, he sought the advice of the celebrated Metastasio, who had been for some time established at Vienna as the favorite poet of the court, and the Italian, with the ready wit of his country, at once supplied him with a quatrain, which, in her disappointment itself, could mid ground for compliment: "Io perdei; l' augusta figlia A pagar m' ha condannato; Ma s'è ver che a voi somiglia, Tutto il mondo ha guadagnato."
CASERO. ¡De pagar a su casero, eh? DOÑA MATILDE. No digo eso, sino que aunque somos pobres somos personas de honor, y que.... CASERO. Sí, sí, personas de honor sin dinero ... eso es lo que yo me temía ... y ésos son los peores inquilinos.
