_Stu._ Consider the reward! When the deed's done, I have farther
business with you. Send Dawson to me.

_Bates._ Think it already done--and so farewel.
[_Exit._

SCENE VI. _changes to the street. Stage darkened._

_Enter BEVERLEY._

_Bev._ How like an out-cast do I wander! Loaded with every curse,
that drives the soul to desperation! The midnight robber, as he
walks his rounds, sees by the glimmering lamp my frantic looks, and
dreads to meet me. Whither am I going? My home lies there; all that
is dear on earth it holds too; yet are the gates of death more
welcome to me. I'll enter it no more--Who passes there? Tis Lewson.
He meets me in a gloomy hour; and memory tells me, he has been
meddling with my fame.


SCENE VII.

_Enter LEWSON._
