...consumed with lust, to his own shuddering surprise and chagrin, but he does not bridle his concupiscent deskes. He issues a quid pro quo: Isabella's virginity for her brother's life. She is appalled and rather loftily tells Claudio to be resigned to his death. She is not what she seems, for to a Christian no defiling of the body can remotely affect the integrity of the soul...
