SCENE IV.

Gates open.
Vortigern appears in Robes of Majesty, followed by the Barons and British Troops.
Catagrinus kneels to Vortigern.
Vor.
Rise, my dear son! thou'rt welcome here again.
And you, brave Saxons, greet we to our land.

Heng.
We come, great sir, to fight in thy defence,
And from thy kingdom wipe away rebellion.

Vor.
Give me thy hand, brave General, and with it,
Exchange we mutually a soldier's faith.
Here let our British troops in friendship join,
And with the Saxons share our present joy.

[Exeunt.
