Tell. Why, ’tis better than the first,

But yet not good enough for such an aim

As I’m to take—’tis heavy in the shaft;

I’ll not shoot with it! (Throws it away.) Let me see my quiver.

Bring it! ’Tis not one arrow in a dozen

I’d take to shoot with at a dove, much less

A dove like that.

Ges. It matters not.

Show him the quiver.

Tell. See if the boy is ready. (Tell here hides an arrow under his vest.)
