JUSTINA. They are coming here, no doubt,
Outside I can hear some persons.

LIVIA. No, they are not they. I see
It is Cyprian.

JUSTINA. How? what sendeth
Cyprian here?

SCENE IX.

Enter CYPRIAN, CLARIN, and MOSCON.

CYPRIAN. A wish to serve you
Is the sole cause of my presence.
For on seeing the officials
Issuing from your house, the friendship
Which I owe unto Lysander
Made me bold herein to enter;
But to know ([Aside.] Disturbed, bewildered
Am I.) if by chance ([Aside.] What gelid
Frost is freezing up my veins!)
I in any way could help you.
([Aside.] Ah, how badly have I spoken!--
Fire not frost my blood possesses!)
