What ist?
The scheme that you have schemd hath faild,
Lord Sidious. Our ruseeen this blockade
Is finishd, for would we dare fight against
100
The Jedi? Nay! It would be foolishness.
[to Nute Gunray:] Hear me now, Viceroy: Ill not
have this filth,
This stunted slime of rank and worthless nerve,
This craven, simple-minded lump of flesh
Within my presence eer again. Put not
105
Such weak examples of resolve and will
Before a mighty Sith.
[Exit Daultay Dofine.
This recent twist
Of Fates blind spinning wheel hath luckless been.
