To Constance.

Hu.Give’t me.

Ph.Pardon, your excellence;

I promised I would see it in Constance’s hands.

Hu. My hands are hers: a daughter cannot read

Letters her father may not. Nay, the more

Such right’s resented, more’s the need to use it.—

And from a traitor’s house!

Ph. (giving).Your privilege, sir,

Invades my honour.
