I should have to put forth my energies and fight my way, as I had often wanted to do. I remember, I thought how happy you and I would be, striving together as poor people 'in that new world which is the old.

Phi. Your love to that I see has made you impudent. Isil. The Storm comes on, your Highness should avoid it. Phi. Let him give place, I'll keep possession here. Isil. It is the Prince's pleasure, Sir, you quit the Presence. Alcip. No, this I call my Home; And since Erminia's here that does entitle it so, I will not quit the Presence. Phi. Alcip. Me, Philander! Phi. Thee. Alcip.

And shall the Traitor live that murder'd her? Gal. And will you by his Death, Sir, murder me? In dear Erminia's Death too much is done; If you revenge that Death, 'tis two for one. Org. Ah, Sir, to let him live's unjust in you. Gal. And killing me, you more injustice do. Org. Alcippus, Madam, merits not your Love, That could so cruel to Erminia prove. Gal.

What, dear Sister, for I am here confin'd, And cannot go to meet it? Gal. Erminia's Ghost is seen, and I'm so frighted Phi. You would not fear it though it should appear. Gal. Oh, do not say so; For though the World had nought I held more dear, I would not see her Ghost for all the World. Alcan. But, Madam, 'tis so like Erminia Am. Why, have you seen it too? Alcan. Yes, Aminta. Am.

Isillia, Erminia's woman, has already admitted Philander to her mistress' chamber, when the lovers are surprised by the arrival of Alcippus on the scene. The prince is concealed, although the meeting had been purely innocent, but he is betrayed owing to the fact of his inadvertently leaving his hat and sword upon a table.

Just as her jug was filled, she was startled by Frank's sudden appearance.
