SCENE II.
A small ante-room or passage.Enter Pietro and Gomez by opposite sides.
Gomez.
Is the confessor with poor Baldwin still?
Pie.
He is; but, as I guess, will leave him presently;
I heard, just now, the chamber-door unlock'd.
I'll keep my station here, and see him pass.
Gomez.
And so will I. Ha! yonder, see, he
comes.
Pietro.
His head bends to the ground, and o'er his eyes
His hood is drawn: would I could see his face!
He is the cousin of our seneschal,—
I'll speak to him.
Enter a Friar, walking hastily across the stage.
Good father! give your blessing:
How is your penitent?
[Friar waves him off with his hand, and exil.
Gomez.
He motions with his hand and will not speak.
532
In so much haste to go! this is not well.
[Shaking his head.
No, no! it hath a dark and rueful look.
Well; God be praised! these hands are free from blood.
[Exeunt.
