Mar.He’s my near kinsman, Livio,

And must not die: and, being condemned to die,

I, as his kinswoman, desire a pass

To visit him in prison when I choose. [Livio writes.

My purpose with him is to extort a pledge

That he will leave the country, on which condition

I look for his release.

Liv.Here is the order.

And use it as thou wilt.

Mar. (taking). I thank you for it.
