Daphne, our neighbor, and her petty spouse-- Weren't they the ones who slandered this house? Those whom the whole world finds ridiculous Are always first in line to stick it to us. They never fail to sniff out and swiftly share The earliest rumor of a love affair, Sowing seeds of scandal with eager expedition And twisting truth past all recognition. In their own colors, they paint all others, Brazenly calling all men their brothers; In the faint hope of finding some resemblance, They try to give a gloss of innocence To their schemes or to make others share The burden of blame that is only theirs.
