From The School for Scandal by Richard Brinsley Sheridan

Why as to reforming Sir Peter I'll make no promises--and that I take to be a proof that I intend to set about it--But here shall be my Monitor--my gentle Guide.--ah! can I leave the Virtuous path those Eyes illumine? Tho' thou, dear Maid, should'st wave thy Beauty's Sway, --Thou still must Rule--because I will obey: An humbled fugitive from Folly View, No sanctuary near but Love and YOU: You can indeed each anxious Fear remove, For even Scandal dies if you approve.
