SCENE III.—The Bed-Chamber of.

Ah! wherefore art thou so disturbed? the night Is almost spent: the morn will break ere long, And rest hast thou had none. Go to thy bed: I pray thee, go.

I cannot: urge me not.

Nay, try to rest: I'll sit and watch by thee.

Thou'lt sit and watch! O woe betide the hour! And who will watch for thee?

And why for me? Can any harm approach? When thou art near, Or sleeping or awake, I am secure.

O God! O God!
