Guido [hurriedly]

I killed the Duke.
Now, my Lord Justice, if I may crave a boon,
Suffer me not to see another sun
Light up the misery of this loathsome world.

Lord Justice

Thy boon is granted, thou shalt die to-night.
Lead him away. Come, Madam

[Guido is led off; as he goes the Duchess stretches out her arms and rushes down the stage.]

Duchess

Guido! Guido!

[Faints.]
