Gol. They were in secret yoked
Most traitorously with LeVal, and all their men
Were coupled to his cause. They gave him cover
To lead his army up——

Hud. His army, sir?

Gol. His followers——

Hud. There may be treachery
Uncapped among us.

Gol. 'Twas by your advice
We gave them leave to camp——

Hud. I trusted fools!
Or traitors! You've a choice of names.

Off. I beg
Your majesty to come with us. They'll fire
At any moment.

Hud. Fire? Then we shall know
At last where we may find LeVal. You've wired
To Vardas, Golifet? He must despatch
The Federal Guards——

Gol. It is too late.

Hud. Too late?
