SCENE VII.

RAYMOND, UBERTO, GUARDS, &c.
RAYMOND,
(advancing to the litter.)
Friend of my heart, how does thy gentle nature
Reign in thy visage, still unmarred by death!

UBERTO.

And I in torture—bear him to the palace!
Thither, ye men of justice, follow me,
I am your willing, your determined victim!

(Exeunt.
