Marg. An’ what say you, my Gerbhert?

Gerb. That I will fight it to the bitter end,

Ariald, thou knowest my good Margaret,

I will not give her up. The Holy Father

Shall know of this strange doctrine. He shall judge

’Twixt thee and me.

Arn. Know then thou carnal Priest that even now

He hath decided; ’tis by his own will
