Act 5, Scene 1
Milan. An abbey
- [Enter EGLAMOUR.]
- Eglamour
- 1936 The sun begins to gild the western sky,
- 1937 And now it is about the very hour
- 1938 That Silvia at Friar Patrick's cell should meet me.
- 1939 She will not fail; for lovers break not hours
- 1940 Unless it be to come before their time,
- 1941 So much they spur their expedition.
- 1942 See, where she comes.
- [Enter SILVIA.]
- Eglamour
- 1943 Lady, a happy evening!
- Silvia
- 1944 Amen, amen! Go on, good Eglamour,
- 1945 Out at the postern by the abbey wall.
- 1946 I fear I am attended by some spies.
- Eglamour
- 1947 Fear not: the forest is not three leagues off;
- 1948 If we recover that, we are sure enough.
- [Exeunt.]
