Ven Monologue from Psyche

From Psyche by Molière

male · defiant · 48 sec

You should have guarded better against these vows; this veneration, this incense ought to be declined, and in order to undeceive them more effectively, you should yourself have rendered this homage to me in their presence. You found pleasure in this error, from which on the contrary you should have shrunk with horror. Your haughty temper, proud of having rejected a thousand kings, has carried the extravagant ambition of its choice even to the skies. (PSY: Have I in my ambition aspired to heaven?) Your insolence is without an equal; do you not aspire to the gods when you reject all the kings of the world?
