CHRY. No; for as she talked of another son-in-law, I thought it wasbetter for me to say nothing.
ARI. Your prudence is to the last degree wonderful! Are you notashamed of your weakness? How can a man be so poor-spirited as to lethis wife have absolute power over him, and never dare to... opposeanything she has resolved upon?
