SCENE X.

Rustan.
Curst event!
The danger imminent and sure is mine.
Should they demand my head—By hell! 'tis theirs.
To save himself, the Sultan will resign
His minister: that fatal policy
Long custom has made sacred—Dire Ambition!
By following thee, I headlong urge my fate,
And change secure repose for wretched state.
