Prince. Well, any news abroad?

Ar. Not that I know of, my lord.

Prince. Cesar, there are despatches in my closet, have been lying there since yesterday, should they not be seen to at once?

Ces. My lord! (Aside.) I foresaw it!

Prince. Yes! I would have you look to them and report them to me directly.

Ces. (aside). Ah, this is better! (Aloud.) I’ll see to them.

(Aside.) And then, I trust, day’s work with daylight o’er,

Man, nor malicious star, shall cross me more.

[Exeunt Cesar and Lazaro.

Prince. And now about the letter?
