...ridicule in the piazza. "We are an old family," Don Vincenzo tells the police. "I admit we've had some violent deaths-but outside the law, in dignity." Agnese no longer matters. She is beaten, jeered at, and finally led to the altar as if she were a schoolgirl dragged to stage center of a savage burlesque.
