Saul |
‘Tis said, here lives a woman, close familiar |
With th’enemy of mankind: her I’ll consult, |
And know the worst. Her art is death by law; |
And while I minded law, sure death attended |
Such horrid practises. Yet, oh hard fate, |
Myself am now reduc’d to ask the counsel |
Of those I once abhorr’d! |
