"Se ei todista mitaan", vaitti Valerius itsepaisesti. � Hanen sydamensa epaili niin kauan kuin mahdollista vihattujen kreikkalaisten maallenousua. � "Usein hyokyaallot tukkivat tien." Cethegus saw the threatening tempest. He saw how Gothic national feeling, awakened by Hildebrand and his friends, grew more opposed to the Romanising Regency. He indignantly confessed to himself that he had no real power with which to keep down discontent. Ravenna was not his Rome, where he controlled all proceedings, where he had again accustomed the citizens to the use of arms, and attached them to his person; here all the troops were Goths, and he could only fear that they would reply to an order for the arrest of Hildebrand or Witichis by open rebellion. So he took a bold resolution to free himself at one stroke from the net which encompassed him in Ravenna. He decided to take the Queen, if necessary by force, to Rome. There he was mighty, had weapons and adherents; there Amalaswintha would be exclusively in his power, and the Goths would be frustrated.

Silloin han sai takaisin amelungien vanhan, ylpean rohkeuden. Han tuli levolliseksi ja mukautui kohtaloonsa. Theodora returned his creeping salutation by a slight nod. Galatea began to paint her eyebrows. All were silent, awed more by the personality than convinced by the reasons of the speaker. Oven vieressa marmoripatsaaseen nojaten, kadet ristissa rinnalla "Enta sitten? Vapaus olisi voittanut!" But Rusticiana violently seized his arm. "And that is all? And you have nothing more--not a word, not a tear for my child? And you would make me believe that you have acted thus to avenge her, to avenge me? You have never had a heart! You did not even love her--coldly you see her die! Ha, curses, curses upon thee!" Han hypahti pystyyn ja paiskasi paneelikattoon kallisarvoisen kristallilasin, niin etta se sarkyi helisten pieniksi palasiksi. Und sausend fuhr der Brandpfeil durch die Luft und bald darauf schlug eine zweite Flamme aus der Stadt gen Himmel.
