SCENE VIII.
To ASCANIO, BIRENO.BIRENO.
Oh, let me clasp thee! This was worthy service.
But for thy zeal, the high-rais'd edifice
So near complete, had tumbled to the earth,
And crush'd me in its fall.
ASCANIO.
Haste to the lists;
A moment more consummates our design,
And Fate itself may strive in vain to shake us.
[Exeunt.
