Bion. Stay, Vigard!
Vig. Earth is fire!
Can you be still upon it? Where is Bertrand
With his deep oaths? O, coward! I will seek him——
Ard. No need. He'll come to you.
Bion. He'll keep his oath,
You think?
Ard. I know he will.
Vig. So knew you too
That Charilus was safe. Call him to life,
And we'll believe you yet!
Bion. How died our father?
[Ardia weeps]
No matter now. And Oswald cast you out?
Afoot?
Gaina. Ay, so he did! I'll answer that!
Ard. He sent us under guard.
Gaina. Ay, but afoot!
And 'twas a trudge to Avesta. O, the day!
