SCENE III.—The Court-room. A crowd of people. PRISONER in the dock. His Wife, an infant in her arms, and his Sister, both in deep mourning, near him. LANGDON, counsel for the prisoner; SHERIFF; CLERK of the Court; CRIER of the Court; CONSTABLES. Enter JUDGE BOLTON, followed by two other JUDGES. All take their places on the bench. Then enter DENNIS and MICHAEL.

DENNIS (staring at the JUDGE).

I' faith, 'tis a purty thing to be a judge,

And sit so high and cool above the crowd.

And your good master well becomes his seat.

He looks, for all the world, like Dan O'Connell.

MICHAEL.
