Act IV. Scene V.

Fields without the Town.

Enter DUKE, in his own habit, and FRIAR PETER.

Duke.  These letters at fit time deliver me.  [Giving letters.
The provost knows our purpose and our plot.
The matter being afoot, keep your instruction,   5
And hold you ever to our special drift,
Though sometimes you do blench from this to that,
As cause doth minister. Go call at Flavius’ house,
And tell him where I stay: give the like notice
To Valentinus, Rowland, and to Crassus,   10
And bid them bring the trumpets to the gate;
But send me Flavius first.

F. Peter.        It shall be speeded well.  [Exit.

Enter VARRIUS.

Duke.  I thank thee, Varrius; thou hast made good haste.   15
Come, we will walk. There’s other of our friends
Will greet us here anon, my gentle Varrius.  [Exeunt.
