ROMIERO: A TRAGEDY.
119
Defend thine honour, though thou scorn thy life. (They fight again, and Romiero falls.)
I thank thee, brave Sebastian: O forgive Harsh words that were but meant to urge contention.
Thou'rt brave and noble; so my heart still deemed thee,
Though, by hard fate, compell'd to be thy foe.—
Come hither, Guzman: thou hast sworn no oath.
Give me thy hand; preserve Sebastian's life,
And lay me in the grave with my Zorada.
(The Curtain drops.)
