POSTSCRIPT.

Since I writ this, I have so wrought upon her,
(Who, of herself, is timorous enough)
That she believes her brother will betray her,
Or else be forced to give her up to you;
Therefore, unknown to him, she means to fly:
Come to the garden door at seven this evening,
And there you may surprise her; mean time, I
Will keep her ignorant of all things, that
Her fear may still increase
.

Enter LEONORA again.

Rod. How now? How does your lady?

Leon. So ill, she cannot possibly wait on you.

Man. Kind heaven, give me her sickness!

Rod. Those are wishes: What's to be done?

Man. We must defer our marriages.

Rod. Leonora, now! [Aside to her

Leon. My lady, sir, has absolutely charged, Her brother's should go forward.
