Scen. IV.

Enter Ægysteus, with a guard.
Ægy.
A guard there on vs, here is murder don,
What is Misander kild our trusty seruant?
Where are the villaines?

Orest.
O hold good heart, harke, harke, he cals vs villaines.

Ægyst.
What is the matter, speake, how came he dead?
They shall die two deaths, that did cause him one.



Orest.
O I am now vndon; he must sit iudge,
To condemne vs that should massacre him.

Pyl.
Nay keepe a temper, hold good friend a while.

Lord.
My gracious Soueraigne, these two be the men,
Which haue confess'd the deed:

Ægyst.
Are you the men which thus abus'd our state,
Was't one or both, if both, you both shall die,
If one, that one, we are iust in our decree.
