But how break free?
CARLOMAN.
How? All of us march with a single mind
Making a strong procession from the gates.
2nd OLD MONK.
The Church has soldiers: whither could we go
Unarmed and with an angry multitude ...
Ist OLD MONK.
Whither?
3rd OLD MONK.
Besides we are not of one mind
Now he stops preaching; it was like a spell.
