You are wellcome, sir: have at you!   [He kills him.

Minion. Trayterouse Guise, ah, thou hast morthered me!

Enter Guise.

Guise. Hold the[e], tall soldier! take the[e] this, and flye.  [Exit Soldier. Thus fall, imperfett exhalatione, Which our great sonn of France cold not effecte; A fyery meteor in the fermament: Lye there, the kinge's delyght and Guise's scorne! Revenge it, Henry, yf thou list or darst: I did it onely in dispight of thee. Fondlie hast thou incenste the Guise's sowle, That of it selfe was hote enough to worke Thy just degestione with extreamest shame. The armye I have gatherd now shall ayme, More at thie end then exterpatione; And when thou thinkst I have forgotten this, And that thou most reposest in my faythe, Than will I wake thee from thy folishe dreame, And lett thee see thie selfe my prysoner. [Exeunt."

'Ils dressèrentu ne embuscade à la porte du Louvre. Comme Saint-Mégrin, en sortoit la nuit, des assassins apostés se jetèrent sur lui, et l'étendirent sur le pavé, percé de trente-cinq coups. Il vécut cependant jusqu au lendemain.' Anquetil, Ibid. p. 347." —Dyce.
