David. A spy?
A spy of Saul and hypocrite have crept
Hither to learn...?
Michal. Have heed—unclean!
David. How, then
Wandering came you here?
Michal. Unclean! Unclean!
David. My brain is overfull of fever, mad.
Almost and I had touched thy peril, held
Thy hideous contagion.
Michal. Wrong!
David. Then who
Art thou to know and speak of her, of Michal?
Michal. One who has served the king.
David. And you have seen
Michal, you have beheld her?
Michal. Once, when she
In face was fairer and in heart than now
They say she is.
