LEONORA.

It is a happy thing; this call will rouse him;

Be thou the bearer of this message, Carlos;
He cannot think thee an intruder now.

CARLOS.

I will obey you.

LEONORA.

And be sure immediately

To give me notice how he has received it.

CARLOS.

I will not fail.[Exeunt severally.

SCENE V.

A spacious Apartment.

Enter Balthazer, followed by Blas, carrying a case with papers, which he lays on a table.

(BALTHAZAR, after examining it).

Is Don Henriquez ready, gentle youth?

BLAS.

He'll soon be here; the Lady is at hand,

With others, who will witness what you read.

BALTHAZER.

I'm glad she comes to soothe his gloomy grief,

For I have that to read will move him greatly.
