GIANETTINO. The girl is pretty, and, in spite of all the devils in hell, I must possess her. LOMELLINO. What, my lord! the only child of the most obstinate of our republicans? GIANETTINO. To hell with your republicans! Shall my passion be thwarted by the anger of a vassal? 'Tis as vain as to expect the tower should fall when the boys pelt it with mussel-shells.

If he has a measure of our sympathy in his feud with the younger Doria, that is only because Gianettino is portrayed as a vulgar brute deserving of nothing but the gallows. Politically there is little to choose between the two, so long as we regard virtue as consisting in an unselfish devotion to an ideal of republican liberty.

And urgently pushing back Don Bempo, Gianettino solemnly marched through the crowd with his retinue, the people readily making a path for him and cheering him as he went. It was a brilliant triumph in the person of the chief cook of their ambassador, which the French celebrated to-day; it was a shameful defeat which Spain suffered to-day in the person of her ambassador's chief cook.

He knows something of the value of rarities!" "Viva! Long life to the French cook, il grande ministre della cucina!" Gianettino bowed politely in response to the compliment, and then civilly asked the price of the fish. The fisherman stood there with an expression of regretful sadness upon his face. "I fear it will be of little use to name the price!" said he, "the fish is as good as sold!"

Is this beautiful and majestic world to him but as one precious diamond, on which her image her image alone is engraved? That he should love her? love Julia! Oh! Your arm support me, Arabella! Hark! Was not that Fiesco's voice, which from the tumult penetrated even hither? Can he laugh while his Leonora weeps in solitude? Oh, no, my child, it was the coarse, loud voice of Gianettino.

"They will no longer say that the Spaniards buy gudgeons. The fish is mine! There are your twenty ducats!" And, with a supercilious air, Don Bempo threw the money upon the table. But just as proudly did the fisherman push back the money. "The fish is sold!" said he. "Forward, march!" repeated Signor Gianettino his word of command. "Forward to the kitchen of his excellency Cardinal Bernis!"

Come, I expect troops this evening from Milan, and must give orders at the gates for their reception. JULIA. Go! You're a rude unmannered creature. The former; FIESCO. Ha! Prince, you spare me a visit which I was just now about to pay. GIANETTINO. And I, too, count, am pleased to meet you here. Your charms, signora, always surpass expectation. FIESCO. Stay, my beauteous lady.

GIANETTINO. The names of the twelve candidates for death Francis Zenturione. In gratitude for his vote he leads the funeral procession. GIANETTINO. Cornelio Calva. LOMELLINO. Calva. GIANETTINO. Michael Zibo. LOMELLINO. To cool him after his disappointment in the procuratorship. GIANETTINO. Thomas Asserato and his three brothers. And his three brothers Go on. GIANETTINO. Fiesco of Lavagna.

I was obliged to leave a most dear person in anxious apprehension a person who will share with me the glory of this night. CALCAGNO. Shall this murderous villain lie here, and hide his infamy in obscurity? ZENTURIONE. Plant his head upon a halberd. ZIBO. Let his mangled carcass sweep the streets! Look, Genoese! By heavens, this is not the face of Gianettino! No! ye devils!

Cursed every human step that shall come to sooth thy misery! Down, into the lowest vault beneath my house! There whine, and cry aloud! This curse lie on thee till Gianettino shall have heaved forth his dying breath. If he escape his punishment, then mayest thou drag thy load of misery throughout the endless circle of eternity! VERRINA casts a scrutinizing look at each of them.
