SCENE III.

An Apartment in Clodia's House. FRUGI, and Attendant of Clodia's.
FRUGI.
Thro' what blind entries lies the Cave of Guilt!
28

Say, whither wouldst thou lead me, thou dark guide?
I'll on no further.

ATTENDANT.
What! do you shrink, my Lord,
And from a harmless woman? from a fair one?
Fie, fie, for shame! how these unmanly fears
Belie that noble presence?

FRUGI.
Well, proceed.
It is my Tullia's cause, the cause of Love.

(Exeunt.
