ACT III.

Scene I.—A platform before the Citadel. Knights entering.

Her. (to one of the Knights.) You would plead for him?

Knight. Nay, remember all

His past renown!

Her. I had a friend in youth—

This Aymer’s father had him shamed for less

Than his son’s fault—far less!

We must accuse him;—he must have his shield

Reversed—his name degraded.
