Scene III.—An Arab Encampment round a few palm-trees in the Desert—Watch-fires in the background.—Night.
Several Arabs enter with Aymer.
Arab Chief. Thou hast fought bravely, stranger;
Now, come on
To share the spoil.
Aym. I reck not of it. Go,
Leave me to rest.
Arab. Well, thou hast earn’d thy rest
With a red sabre. Be it as thou wilt.
[They go out.—He throws himself under a palm-tree.
