SCENE VIII.

Enter HAMET.
Surely I heard—
Villain forbear—O! all ye gods—Almeida!

ALMORAN
(throws off the disguise.)
Ha!—Who art thou—'Tis Almoran—Ha!—Hamet!

ALMEIDA.
Almoran!—Ah! poor betray'd Almeida.

[Faints.
HAMET.
Ha! betray'd!—Now then accursed king—
[They fight, Almoran disarm'd.
Guilt brings the haughty tyrant to the earth—
Behold the mighty Almoran disarm'd!

ALMORAN.
Strike—strike—I will not bear the load of life.

HAMET.
I need not shed thy blood—Thy conscience bleeds
Already
