Brother? Here, take this light.
ANTONIO      My careful sister. 35
FRANCISCA
Look first in his own lodging ere you enter.
[Exit ANTONIO]
ANTONIO
[Within] Oh abused confidence! Here’s nothing of him
But what betrays him more.
FRANCISCA [To ANTONIO within] Then ’tis too true brother?
ANTONIO
[Within] I’ll make base lust a terrible example;
No villainy e’er paid dearer.
FLORIDA [Within]      Help! Hold sir! 40
ANTONIO
[Within] I’m deaf to all humanity.
FRANCISCA      List, list!
A strange and sudden silence after all.
I trust he’s spoiled ’em both – too dear a happiness!
Oh how I tremble between doubts and joys!

[Enter ANTONIO below, sword drawn]
