ADRIEL
Ope! open you!
DAVID
At last the word.
MERAB
Girl, Adah, draw the bar.
[David throws a cloak over his face. Adah obeys. Adriel enters, and Doeg, who pauses in quick alarm, as David goes between him and the gate.]
DOEG
What place is this? Why do you bar that gate?
Merab, ’tis you? Why do you gaze, rigid?
