And that your zeal had been more temperate!

For, by the workings of my soul, I find

This was the instrument, but not the head.

Off. Name him you deem the murderer, good my lord!

Vor. Be silent, and mark well, that I shall say:

The Scots, you know, bear us fell enmity:

Many of rank do tarry in our court;

On them the guilt of this foul murder rests.

I pray you, instantly despatch the guard,

And seize each Scotsman ye shall chance to meet.
