Enter Don Henrique and Ernesto.
Don H. If you desire to see her, friend, you may.
Ern. I should be glad to acquaint my master, sir,
That I have had the honour to see his bride.
Don H. Where's your lady, Flora?
Flo. She's in her chamber, sir.
Don H. Tell her, Antonio's man attends her here,
To do his duty to her ere he goes. [Exit Flora.
Stay here: you'll find her with a kinswoman,
In her home dress without a veil; but you
Are privileg'd by your relation for this access:
I'll go despatch my letter. [Exit Henrique.
Enter Camilla, Porcia, and Flora. Ernesto addresses himself to Camilla, seeing her without a veil.
Ern. Madam, I have been bold to beg the honour
Of seeing your ladyship, to make myself
More welcome to my lord at my return.
Por. A rare mistake! further it, dear Camilla!
Who knows what good this error may produce? [Aside.
Cam. Friend, in what state left you your lord and mine?
