SCENE V.

Arminius and Inguiomer.
Arminius.
Are all things ready? Is there aught, my friend,
Unthought of, unprovided?

Inguiomer.
I have gone my round
Through the wide camp: A nobler show of war
Was ne'er display'd. Impatient of delay
They wield their javelins, and demand the signal.

Arminius.
Anon our march begins: Well, Segimund,
You come in haste.

Enter Segimund.
Segimund.
I've summon'd all the chiefs
To meet you here: This way they bend their steps.

Arminius.
I first must see the troops of my division.
The men require my presence: With dispatch
My orders shall be giv'n; so tell the chiefs.
You, Inguiomer, receive them; let them here
Wait my return: A moment brings me to you.

[Exit.
