The Final Rose Handed by Escalus

Alas, justice is served.
Angelo pays his dues by wedding his lost dowry,
Mariana has been blessed by Friar Lodowick-
Duke Vincentio-
But have no fear,
Isabella and her chastity
shall serve her time
through marriage to her fellow mastermind.
Claudio lives to tell a tale of Angelo's reign
and the dire need to lead as a man of the people
like the Duke has done and so graciously returned
to be our savior.
One must pay for their misdeeds
Yet I question with the returning of Duke Vincentio
must we be expected to abide by his "law"
if our leaders tell false tales-
All in all, justice is justice
and I bid thee, reader, to accept my rose
for love and redemption
