(watching Lucrezia's baby sleep) Can I hold him?
And wake him? That would be cruelty indeed.
I must hold you, then. (he hugs her) Tell me again, my love- who was his father?
(smiles sadly) A groom, Paolo. But I called him Narcissus, so divine was his face.
Should I envy him, then?
(smiles up at him) You have read your romances, dear Brother; you must know that such a love is impossible.
Impossible loves- I am very much afraid they can become an addiction.
... There is one your heart must find room for, Cesare. One you must love before you can love anyone.
And, that one would be?...
(squeezes his hand) Yourself.
