Synopsis
Excerpt from Breakfast in Bed: Or Philosophy Between the Sheets
For blood of grapes they sell the widow's food, and snatch the meat out Of the prison er's mout to fatten the naughty. With Vile hypocrisy they simulate devotion but when the meek Angelo, who is always walking about with upturned eyes and a lighted taper, has gone on his way, Hircins and Spungius thrust their tongues into their cheeks, and reel into the nearest tav ern, blaspheming. Finally, when Dorothea, their mistress, their benefactress, their Saint, is to be scourged, outraged, tortured, who but Hir cius and Spungius are there to help the hang man? Faugh! There is but one merry passage in this mournful tragedy, and that is where the twin °villains are dragged away by the heels to the gallows.
