"There is no loophole of escape for you! The world might let you go free to murder and betray, but I Ambrosio, a scourge in the Lord's hand I will never let you go! Pray pray before it is too late! I heard the devil tempt you I heard you yield to his tempting! You were both going to ruin a woman that is devil's work. And God told me what to do to burn the evil out by flame, and purify your soul!
