Why, those that did lay hold of him.
MORANZONE
How was the alarm given?
THIRD CITIZEN
That I cannot tell you, sir.
MISTRESS LUCY
It was the d.u.c.h.ess herself who pointed him out.
MORANZONE
[aside]
The d.u.c.h.ess! There is something strange in this.
MISTRESS LUCY
Ay! And the dagger was in his hand--the d.u.c.h.ess's own dagger.
MORANZONE
What did you say?
MISTRESS LUCY
Why, marry, that it was with the d.u.c.h.ess's dagger that the Duke was killed.
MORANZONE
[aside]
There is some mystery about this: I cannot understand it.
SECOND CITIZEN
They be very long a-coming,
FIRST CITIZEN
I warrant they will come soon enough for the prisoner.
TIPSTAFF
Silence in the Court!
FIRST CITIZEN
Thou dost break silence in bidding us keep it, Master Tipstaff.
[Enter the LORD JUSTICE and the other Judges.]
SECOND CITIZEN
Who is he in scarlet? Is he the headsman?
THIRD CITIZEN
Nay, he is the Lord Justice.
[Enter GUIDO guarded.]
SECOND CITIZEN
There be the prisoner surely.
THIRD CITIZEN
He looks honest.
FIRST CITIZEN
That be his villany: knaves nowadays do look so honest that honest folk are forced to look like knaves so as to be different.
[Enter the Headman, who takes his stand behind GUIDO.]
SECOND CITIZEN
Yon be the headsman then! O Lord! Is the axe sharp, think you?
FIRST CITIZEN
Ay! sharper than thy wits are; but the edge is not towards him, mark you.
SECOND CITIZEN
[scratching his neck]
I' faith, I like it not so near.
FIRST CITIZEN
Tut, thou need'st not be afraid; they never cut the heads of common folk: they do but hang us.
[Trumpets outside.]
THIRD CITIZEN
What are the trumpets for? Is the trial over?
FIRST CITIZEN
Nay, 'tis for the d.u.c.h.ess.
