To shield thee from them.

Sar.‍Child, if there be peril,560

Methinks it is the same within these walls

As on the river's brink.

Myr.‍Not so; these walls

Are high and strong, and guarded. Treason has

To penetrate through many a winding way,

And massy portal; but in the pavilion

There is no bulwark.

Sar.‍No, nor in the palace,
