Scene IV.

—A Chamber in the Palace.
Enter Emma.
Emma.
Credentials? yes—Earl Leolf's may go far;
71

But truly I was made to thrive at court
With or without them, being merry and wise.
They trust to me already as to one
That works by miracle; and can I not
To clear the proud Elgiva from the path
Of lovelorn Leolf? Married shall she be
Or e'er the sun go down; so shall his wound,
Though deep, have rest and heal. Could twenty Kings
Have turned aside my heart, or in mine eyes
Possessed one-twentieth part the sovereignty
That crowns his kingly head! Enter Ernway.

In time for once.
Take this to Sheen. Seek Father Ricola out;
Tell him the King shall follow in an hour,
And then Elgiva.—Ernway, if thou lov'st me,
Be sudden and be secret.

Ernway.
Trust me, Emma,
I will be both.

Emma.
Here is the private stair
Which brings you past the ward, and with this key ...
How dark it is! Be careful how you step.
