Lady S. Ah—h—h!

Sir T. Tell the truth.

Lady S. Unholy beast! give me the poison, quick!
I want to die; I want to die alone!

Sir T. That might be well; but not just now, nor here.

Lady S. I wonder … Could I drown myself? Alone?
[Goes out]

Sir T. Salerne! Salerne!

[Re-enter Salerne.]

The understudy's dressed?

Salerne. He is.

Sir T. And Groom? Asleep?
