Sen. To murder Nero.
Pau.Indeed I wonder not.
Sen. But who is the man, thinkst thou, whom they would take
To set up in his place; who, if they fail,
Must fall a sacrifice? Who least desires

Pau. Not thee! ah, ah, my lord, not thee!
Sen.Take comfort,
Be brave, Paullina; check thy tears: there is hope;
There is yet a hope. I shall renounce my wealth,
