Why, what’s the matter now?

Lydia.King Hildebrand,

Holding your father captive, sends to say

That if Hilarion suffers any harm,

Your father’s life will pay the penalty,

Moreover—if you do not yield yourself,

According to the tenor of your oath,

He will attack you ere to-morrow’s dawn—

And force compliance!

Prin.Will he so, indeed?
