THE DARK CHAMBER

Second Herald

The King will no longer deny himself to his subjects. He is coming to command the festivities himself.

Second Citizen

Brother, is that so?

Second Herald

Look, his banner is flying over there.

Second Citizen

Ah, yes, that is a flag indeed.

Second Herald

Do you see the red Kimshuk flower painted on it?

Second Citizen

Yes, yes, it is the Kimshuk indeed!—what a bright scarlet flower!

First Herald

Well! do you believe us now?
