SCENE V.
Angus, Dunbar, Eleonora.Angus.
Rise my Child,
Thou hast been always dutiful, and mild
As the soft Breeze that fanns the Summer-Eve!—
Such Innocence endearing, gently stole
Into my youthful Bosom, and awak'd
Loves tender Languishment, when to my View
Thy Mother first display'd her Virgin Bloom!
[Turning to Dunbar.
Come to my Arms Dunbar!—To shield from Death
A Parent, is the venerable Act
Of the most pious Duty.—Thus adopted,
Henceforward be my Son!—The rebel Chiefs
Secure in my Safe-conduct, wait without
The promis'd Audience.—To the King repair,
And signify their Presence.—
[Exit Dunbar.
