Italian term or phrase: e credete?...
Opera Roberto Devereux by Donizetti:
The Duchess, Sara, tells the Ladies in waiting that she is only crying about the story of Rosamonda:
SARA
(Ah! mi tradisce il cor!)
Lessi dolente istoria...
Piangea... di Rosamonda.
DAME
Chiudi la trista pagina
che il tuo dolor seconda.
SARA
Il mio dolor!...
DAME
Sì; versalo
dell'amistade in seno.
SARA
Ladi, e credete?...
DAME
Ah! fidati
SARA
Io?... No... Son lieta appieno.
