Cres. Do you know I tried first to get him to do me justice with no authority at all, but the offer of all my estate?
Lope. I tell you, I’ll settle the business for you.
Cres. And I tell you I never leave to another what I can do for myself.
Lope. I tell you once more and for all, I must have my man.
Cres. And I tell you once more and for all, you shall—when you have cleared him of the depositions.
Lope. The depositions! What are they?
Cres. Oh, only a few sheets of parchment tagged together with the evidence of his own soldiers against him.
Lope. Pooh! I’ll go myself, and take him from the prison.
Cres. Do, if you like an arquebuss ball through your body.
Lope. I am accustomed to that. But I’ll make sure. Within there!
