Yes! (Bellini: How my son! her picture! as a wanton's!) Tho it has been till now my adoration! The fairest of my dreams and the most holy! Yes, by the virtue of all honest women, If such there be in Venice, I swear it shall be borne by ribald hands Thro the very streets. (Bellini: My son!) A public thing! [ (Points to picture.) Fit for the most lascivious! who now Shall gaze on what I had beheld alone, On what was purer to me than the Virgin! The very pimps and panders of the Piazza Shall if they will whet appetite upon it, And smack their losel lips.
