You might say it that way, but then again—the critic scoffs—it could be put quite differently.

If you will learn how to be false, how to play the harlots, how to obtain one’s love, how to ravish, how to beguile, how to betray, to flatter, lie, swear, forswear, how to allure to whoredom, how to murder, how to poison, how to disobey and rebel against princes, to consume treasures prodigally, to move to lusts, to be idle, to blaspheme, to sing filthy songs of love, to speak filthily, to be proud, how to mock, scoff, and deride!’”
Aprenderás a ser falso, a hacer de ramera, a obtener el favor de alguien, a ultrajar, a engañar, a traicionar, a adular, mentir, jurar, abjurar, la tentación de la carne, cómo asesinar, cómo envenenar, cómo desobedecer y rebelarte contra los príncipes, a consumir tesoros con prodigalidad, a acercarte al deseo, a ser un holgazán, a blasfemar, a cantar repugnantes canciones de amor, a hablar lujuriosamente, a ser orgulloso, a escarnecer, mofarse y ridiculizar». —Volvió a reír; saltaba a la vista que estaba disfrutando.
