Offi. Bear this news to the Senate,
And guard their bodies till there's farther order:
Heaven grant I die so well! [The Scene closes.
SCENE IV.—A Room in Priuli's House.
Soft Music. Enter Belvidera distracted, led by two of her Women, Priuli, and Servants.
Priu. Strengthen her heart with patience, pitying Heaven!
Belv. Come, come, come, come—nay, come to bed,
Pr'ythee, my love. The winds! hark how they whistle!
And the rain beats: oh, how the weather shrinks me!
You're angry now; who cares? pish, no, indeed!
Choose then; I say you shall not go, you shall not.
Whip your ill-nature; get you gone then—oh!
[Jaffier's Ghost rises.
Are you returned? See, father, here he's come again:
Am I to blame to love him? O, thou dear one!
[Ghost sinks.
