    Default A little help with this phrase

    Can you please translate this phrase for me?

    "Pero llevo para darte lo que para mi deseo,
    el beneficio de la duda, las maneras, los recreos"

    I get the second part that should be "the benefit of the doubt, the manners, the entertainments", right? But I have problems with the first part...
    "-Please tell me you're going to appeal to my humanity..."
    "-Actually, I'm planning to threaten you."

    "Well, if you'll excuse me, I have work to do. Evil plots don't just make themselves, you know!"
