Be deaf, be blind! hear not, behold her not! She kill'd my virtuous wife. Q. Mo. He kill'd your king. Q. Mo. 'Twas to get his crown. ELEAZ. His crown! why here 'tis thou slew'st my Maria, To have access to my unstained bed. Q. Mo. Oh, heaven! ELEAZ. 'Tis true: how often have I stopp'd Thy unchaste songs from passing through mine ears. How oft, when thy luxurious arms have twin'd ELEAZ. Thou slew'st my sweet Maria; ELEAZ. Hah! why? ALV. Madam, you shall be heard Before the courts, before the courts of Spain. ELEAZ. A guard! a guard! Enter two Moors and others. Q. Mo. A guard! for what? for whom? So many great sins must not wait with few. Q. Mo. Keep me in prison! dare you, lords? Were your cause strong, we would not arm you so; Kingdoms stand safe, when mischief lies in bands. You must to prison. Q. Mo. Must I! must I! slave! [Exeunt. I'll damn thee ere thou triumph'st o'er my grave. [Exit with a guard. Manet ELEAZAR. ELEAZ. Do, do!-my jocund spleen! It does, it will, it shall-I have at one throw 'Tis gone, and there's no more to set but this Like to a desperate gamester. Hah! how? fast? Enter ZARACK. ZAR. Except their bodies turn to airy spirits, And fly through windows, they are safe, my lord: If they can eat through locks and bars of iron, They may escape; if not, then not. ELEAZ. Oh, Zarack! Wit is a thief; there's pick-lock policy, Turn all thy body into eyes, And watch them; let those eyes, like fiery comets, ZAR. Oh, for necks, my lord. ELEAZ.

Here's Baltazar; go both, teach them to preach They have supple knees, sleek'd brows, but hearts of gall; The bitterness shall be wash'd off with biood: Tyrants swim safest in a crimson flood. BALT. I come to tell your grace, that Isabella ZAR. Murder thou the man, ELEAZ. No, I'll speed her myself. Arm in arm, so, so; look upon this ring; Murder be proud! and tragedy laugh on! [Exeunt two Moors. Enter ISABELLA and HORTENZO; seeing the Moor, they turn back. ELEAZ. My lord, my lord Hortenzo! HORTEN. Hah! is't you ? Trust me I saw you not. ELEAZ. What makes your grace so sad? HORTEN.
