14 ST. JOHN. Well, come along, let us go and attend carefully to her funeral.

AND. There is close by here a marble tomb, in which she shall be buried. And I will give my steward Fortunatus instructions to keep watch over it.

ST. JOHN. That is right; she deserves honourable burial. May God rest her soul in joyfulness!

At Andronicus' house. Callimachus is talking with Fortunatus.

CALLIMACHUS. Ah, Fortunatus, whatever will come of it all? Just think, even now Drusiana is dead I cannot banish my love for her from my thoughts!

FORTUNATUS. A most unfortunate state of affairs!

CALL. It will be the death of me, if you do not come to my assistance.

FORT. But how can I assist you?

CALL. By finding a means to let me see her, dead though she is.
