Here, Mammon suggests he and Doll take the stone to a “free state,” to a republic like Venice, where they can freely live a life of wealth and “lust.” Just as Doll, Face, and Subtle suspect, Mammon jumps at the chance to spend time in private with Doll. He even gives Face more money, which they also hoped for. In this way, Mammon’s lust is a double win for Subtle and Face—it gives them an excuse not to give him the stone and it gets them even more money.
