I have learned somewhat from Philip: the Spanish court

Is open to my enemies. My best hope

If things go worse will be to sail for Spain

And face them boldly there. ’Tis an extremity

’Twere best to avoid: but since my hands are tied

I may be forced; and am so far resolved,

That if Palicio now should raise the town,

And come to attack the palace, I shall fly.

I have had a way cut thro’ the chapel wall,

Whence by a covered passage I can reach
