ISABELLA.  To whom should I complain? Did I tell this,  Who would believe me? O perilous mouths  That bear in them one and the selfsame tongue  Either of condemnation or approof,  Bidding the law make curtsy to their will;  Hooking both right and wrong to th' appetite,  To follow as it draws! I'll to my brother.  Though he hath fall'n by prompture of the blood,  Yet hath he in him such a mind of honour  That, had he twenty heads to tender down  On twenty bloody blocks, he'd yield them up  Before his sister should her body stoop  To such abhorr'd pollution.  Then, Isabel, live chaste, and, brother, die:  More than our brother is our chastity.  I'll tell him yet of Angelo's request,  And fit his mind to death, for his soul's rest.  Exit.
