Quick to my wife, and say I’d speak with her.

As yet, from those dull sluggards sent to Rome,

No tidings have I heard. But here she comes.

Enter Edmunda.

Edm. What is your pleasure, sir?

Vor. Where are my recreant son and daughter gone:

Nay, think not with those eye-drops to deceive me;

Tell me, I say,—thou know’st full well their flight!

Edm. If in these veins doth run the blood of life,

Or there be truth on earth, I know not of them.
