The Mourning Bride - Zara
Zara from Act iii Scene viii
Ha!
Who waits there?
As you’ll answer it, take heed
This Slave commit no Violence upon
Himself. I’ve been deceiv’d. The Publick Safety
Requires he should be more confin’d; and none,
No not the Princes self, permitted to
Confer with him. I’ll quit you to the King.
Vile and ingrate! too late thou shalt repent
The base Injustice thou hast done my Love:
Yes, thou shalt know, spite of thy past Distress,
And all those Ills which thou so long hast mourn’d;
Heav’n has no Rage, like Love to Hatred turn’d,
Nor Hell a Fury, like a Woman scorn’d.

Christmas in Chester - Book of Elsa
Christmas in Chester
In order to change my attitudes towards this holiday, I've decided to embrace it all. From mulled wine to seasonal markets and twinkle lights... think I threw up a little in my mouth then; Nevertheless undeterred I'm Keeping Calm and Carrying On.
