w. a. mozart to his father - dominick argento lyrics

well, count arco has managed things to perfection! so that
is the way to persuade people, to win them over, to refuse
pet-tions out of congenital stupidity, not to say a word to
your master for lack of spirit and love of sycophancy, to
keep a man hanging about for four weeks and at last, when
he is obliged to present the pet-tion himself, instead of
arranging for his admittance, to throw him out and give him
a kick in the pants… i wrote three pet-tions, handed them
in five times, and each time had them thrown back at
me…and since the archbishop was planning to leave on
the next day, i was quite beside myself with rage and wrote
another pet-tion, in which i disclosed to him that i had had
a pet-tion in readiness for the past four weeks! with that
pet-tion i received my discharge in the most gallant way
so seeing the reasons why i left him no father could be
angry with his own son
