Don Juan 01-033
Canto the First

XXXIII

He died: and most unluckily, because,
     According to all hints I could collect
From counsel learned in those kinds of laws
     (Although their talk's obscure and circumspect),
His death contrived to spoil a charming cause;
     A thousand pities also with respect
To public feeling, which on this occasion
Was manifested in a great sensation.
