For tho’he breathes, ’tis with such failing gasps

As mastering death allows to his sure prey.

K. Thou art over-fearful; three days without food

Should make him weak and faint, but not to death.

Nay, I am determined now he shall not die.

Food will restore him. Set me here a table

With meat and drink: here in the garden set it,

And he shall eat at once. See it be done,

And quickly.

Sa.Sire, I obey: tho’’tis too late.[Exit.
