Beatrice

No, but to the gate; and there will the devil meet
me, like an old cuckold, with horns on his head, and
say 'Get you to heaven, Beatrice, get you to
heaven; here's no place for you maids:' so deliver

heavens; he shows me where the bachelors sit, and
there live we as merry as the day is long.
