"BELLINDA
I should blame your discretion for loving that wild man, my dear; but they say he has a way of bewitching that few can defend their hearts who know him.
MRS. LOVEIT
I will tear him from mine, or die i' the attempt!
BELLINDA
Be more moderate.
MRS. LOVEIT
Would I had daggers, darts, or poisoned arrows in my breast, so I could but remove the thoughts of him from thence!

"SEBASTIAN.
Here satiate all your fury;
Let fortune empty her whole Quiver on me,
I have a Soul, that like an ample Shield
Can take in all; and verge enough for more.
I wou'd have conquer'd you; and ventur'd only
A narrow neck of Land for a third World;
To give my loosen'd Subjects room to play.
Fate was not mine,
Nor am I Fate's: Now I have pleas'd my longing,
And trod the ground which I beheld from far,
I beg no pity for this mouldring Clay:
For if you give it burial there it takes
Possession of your Earth:
If burnt and scatter'd in the air: the Winds
That strow my dust, diffuse my royalty,
And spread me o'er your Clime: for where one Atome
Of mine shall light; know there Sebastian Reigns.

What shall I do to conquer thee?

Impossible!
