HUSBAND: No. It is useless. It is time to finish it! I shall not
deceive myself any longer because I make you cry immediately!
<p>WIFE (crying): No! Carlo no!... come here... come here  . .
listen to me!...
<p>HUSBAND (crying tenderly): Pardon me, Rosetta! Pardon me!    
<p>WIFE (enraged): For God's sake! If you don't stop with this inopportune sentimentality, I will slap you...
<p>HUSBAND (at the height of his fury): Enough! ... or I shall hurl you out of the window...
<p>WIFE: Darling! Darling! How much I love you! Tenderness grips my heart... give me again your delicious reprimands.
<p>HUSBAND: Ah! Rosetta... Rosetta!... my infinite love...
<p>WIFE (exasperated): If you repeat that another time, I will divorce you!... (Precisely.) I will divorce you!..
<p>HUSBAND (exploding): Ah! Ah! Wretch! ... go away! ... go away! ... go away!...
<p>WIFE: I have never loved you more sweetly!
<p>HUSBAND: Ah! Rosetta! Rosetta! ...
<p>WIFE: Enough ... (She slaps him.)
<p>HUSBAND: Enough, I say. (Slaps her twice.)
<p>WIFE (languidly): Give me your lips! Give me your lips...
<p>HUSBAND: Here, treasure!
