SCÆNA 9.

Andromana enters undrest, and in a fright.
An.
Happy am I my Lord,
She weeps.
This sudden fright hath rescued me from being made
The subject of some villains lust, who
With his sword drawn just now was forcing me
To lewd imbraces, if you command to search the Court,
He cannot be far hence, for he ran that way.

Rin.
O impudence!
Plangus stirs behinde the hangings. Rinatus draws and runs at him.
That durst attempt a sin (darkness and woods
Have too many eyes for) in the open Court.
I shall be with you—the Devil hath
Armor on—

Eph.
Drag him to torture—
They fetch him out.
My son! why have I liv'd to see this!
Away with him to death, the air will grow infectious.
Why stay you?
