Act IVScene V
Fields without the town
Enter Duke, in his own habit, and Friar Peter.
Duke
These letters at fit time deliver me.The Provost knows our purpose and our plot.The matter being afoot, keep your instructionAnd hold you ever to our special drift,Though sometimes you do blench from this to thatAs cause doth minister. Go call at Flavius’ house,And tell him where I stay. Give the like noticeTo Valencius, Rowland, and to Crassus,And bid them bring the trumpets to the gate.But send me Flavius first.
Friar Peter
It shall be speeded well.
Exit Friar Peter.
Enter Varrius.
Duke
I thank thee, Varrius, thou hast made good haste.Come, we will walk. There’s other of our friendsWill greet us here anon. My gentle Varrius.
Exeunt.
