Friends.
:29:10
May I ask you, is this God's game?
:29:13
Why do you gamble with your souls?
:29:16
What is it you want?
:29:17
Your salvation.
:29:21
This is no company for one so fair.
:29:43
Venice may as well be deemed
one large floating brothel.

:29:47
What's biting your ass
this fair evening, cousin?

:29:52
You'd begrudge the fairer sex
their little crumbs?

:29:56
No, though they do make more
in a night than I a month.

:30:00
Go make yourself useful.
Give us a rhyme.

:30:03
I'm no performing monkey
for the idle masses.

:30:05
Since when?
:30:07

performing monkeys, nephew.

:30:10

If it's rhyme you wish,
I'll gladly oblige.

A subject?
:30:24
Doge?
:30:27
Venice. To celebrate our plenty.

Born in glory
:30:35
The virgin's exultation
:30:38
Fair and mighty Venice
:30:41
Queen of the sea
:30:42
Unconquered maid
:30:45
Sovereign isle is she
:30:53
Chaste goddess
:30:54
Rising from the foamy depths
:30:59
Wine?
