ISABELLA.  In brief -  to set the needless process by,  How I persuaded, how I pray'd, and kneel'd,  How he refell'd me, and how I replied,  For this was of much length -  the vile conclusion  I now begin with grief and shame to utter:  He would not, but by gift of my chaste body  To his concupiscible intemperate lust,  Release my brother; and, after much debatement,  My sisterly remorse confutes mine honour,  And I did yield to him. But the next morn betimes,  His purpose surfeiting, he sends a warrant  For my poor brother's head.
