3d Baron.
Speak, Denovalin!
Ganelun.
Thou say'st
Lord Tristram broke the bond that holds his life?
5th Baron.
I'll not believe it!
4th Baron.
Tristram wed, ye know,
The daughter of King Kark of Arundland.
3d Baron.
Denovalin must bring us proofs!
Dinas.
Gently,
My Lords. Before the high tribunal shall
He speak. Go, call the Queen.
[The man-at-arms goes.]
Dinas.
King Mark,
Why dost thou hasten to believe this tale?
Remember, 'tis Denovalin who speaks.
Dinas.
'Tis not a matter of belief, my friend,
I wish to know if for her sake he came;
To see her once again—no more. The rest
I know, and I know, too, the end of this;
This game that's played about my life, my blood.
Mine honor!
