Fast. Whither away! to save myself by flight:

We are like to have the overthrow again.

Cap. What! will you fly, and leave Lord Talbot?

For I have seen our enemies' overthrow.

Enshrines thee in his heart, and there erects

Thy noble deeds as valour's monument.

Tal. Thanks, gentle duke. But where is Pucelle now?
