Don H. Do you defend them too? Kill 'em, I say.

Don A. Retire, Octavio, I'll sustain their shock.

Don O. Octavio retire!

Don A. Trust me, you must, they will surround us else;
Through that narrow passage they'll assail us
With less advantage.

[They retire, fighting, off the stage, Don Henrique and his men pursuing them, and Don Carlos endeavouring to stop Don Henrique.

Don H. What, d'ye give back, ye mighty men of fame?

Don A. Don Henrique, you shall quickly find 'tis honour,
Not fear, makes me retire. [Exeunt.

Enter presently Don Antonio and Don Octavio at another door, which Don Antonio bolts.

Don A. Now we shall have a breathing while at least,
Octavio, and time to look about us.
Pray, see yon other door be fast.

[Don Octavio steps to the door where they went out, and Don Henrique bounces at the door they came in at.
