قالت فذلكن الذي لمتنني فيه ولقد راودته عن نفسه فاستعصم ولئن لم يفعل ما امره ليسجنن وليكونا من الصاغرين

She said: "There before you Is the man about whom Ye did blame me! I did seek to seduce him from His (true) self but he did Firmly save himself guiltless!… And now, if he doth not My bidding, he shall certainly Be cast into prison, And (what is more) Be of the company of the vilest!"
