Madam, a rider from the inn at Springs
Has brought these flowers, gathered by the Prince
Your son, now dead.
Jezebel.
The flowers that speak truth;
Was there no other relic but the flowers?
Micaiah.
Yes, Madam, this: a staff or riding rod,
Left on the flowers, so the rider said.
Jezebel.
A riding rod! And do you know the rod?
Micaiah.
Madam, I do. It is Lord Jehu’s staff.
Jezebel.
