JUSTICE MERTON Master Dickonson, hem! has been—persuaded—to accompany his lordship on the virginals.
AMELIA How delightful!
REV. MASTER RAND [Aside to Todd.] Shall we remain?
REV. MASTER TODD We must.
RAVENSBANE [To Rachel.] My tassel, dear mistress; you do not wear it?
RACHEL My heart still wavers, my lord. But whilst you sing, I will decide.
RAVENSBANE Whilst I sing? My fate, then, is waiting at the end of a song?
RACHEL At the end of a song.
DICKON [Touches Ravensbane’s arm.] Your lordship.
RAVENSBANE [Starting, turns to the company.] Permit me.
