Isabella's Epilogue

Praise be to God
for He whom this day we should thank
in utter harmony.
My brother, sweet Claudio musn't fear any longer.
Today's woes become yesterday's memories.
Duke, though I honor your request for marriage
my heart is eternally committed
to the Lord.
My place, the nunnery, is not suit for marriage
and yes-- this place must be my home.
Do not take offense, dear friend
I owe you my life
but will not surrender my faith.
Angelo,
the Lord has decided your fate.
Corruption and sin will not be tolerated
but I forgive
and if you do beg
the Lord will forgive.
Today, the day of reckoning,
Shall forever be.
Oh-- Bless!
