Mar. Thou wouldst not leave it?
Pal.No: dankness and darkness
Are now my friends. I have failed. How can I wish
To step in the light of heaven?
Mar.O, then I see
This death-delivering dungeon hath o’ercome thee.
——There’s news. This morn the ships arrived from Spain.
They must bring tidings of the king’s accession.
We shall learn all to-day. When he’s proclaimed,
There’s nought that thou couldst do if thou wert free.
