STYVER.
Ja, jeg tror.
Der er indicier, der er visse spor,
som viser, at da nys det store ord
han førte, var han i beskænket tilstand.
Ja, der er et prov, som, om just ikke fældende,
dog taler meget stærkt imod angældende;
det er ham overført, at efter bordet
han indfandt sig i Linds og egen bolig,
og viste der en adfærd højst urolig,
slog sønder – –
STIVER.
I deduce
The fact from certain signs, which indicate
That his tall talk about his Amor’s News
Was uttered in a far from sober state.
One proof especially, if not transcendent,
Yet tells most heavily against defendant:
It has been clearly proved that after dinner
To his and Lind’s joint chamber he withdrew,
And there displayed such singular demeanour
As leaves no question--
