Brodie. Not that ... not the money that I came to steal!

Lawson. Tak’ it, William; I’ll pay him.

Brodie. It is in vain. I cannot leave till I have said. There is a man; I must obey him. If I slip my chain till he has done with me, the hue and cry will blaze about the country; every outport will be shut; I shall return to the gallows. He is a man that will stick at nothing.

SCENE VII

To these, Moore

Moore. Are you coming?

Brodie. I am coming.

Moore (appearing in the door). Do you want us all to get thundering well scragged?

Brodie (going). There is my master.
