Yet his keen eye that flashes mighty meanings ­

LEGENDRE.

Fear not ­ or rather fear th' alternative,
And seek for courage e'en in cowardice ­
But see ­ hither he comes ­ let us away!
His brother with him, and the bloody Couthon,
And, high of haughty spirit, young St. Just.

Exeunt

.

Enter

ROBESPIERRE, COUTHON, ST. JUST,

and

ROBESPIERRE Junior.

ROBESPIERRE.
