As baffle all resolve.

Lys.

My Lord Asander,

It is too late. Wouldst thou, then, break thy oath?

Wouldst thou live here a prisoner, nor behold

Thy father, though he die? Wouldst thou thy country

Should spurn thee as the traitor whose malignance

Blighted her hard-won gains? It is too late!

It is too late!

Asan.
