ick out: Tell him, the lady Julia will be walking On the broad rock, that lies beside the port, And there expects to see him instantly. In the mean time I'll call for Amideo. _Jul_. You'll keep your promise to Don Roderick? _Gons_. Madam, since you bring death, I welcome it; But to his fortune, not his love, submit. [_Exit_ GONSALVO. _Hip_. I dare not ask what I too fain would hear: But, like a tender mother, hope and fear, My equal twins, my equal care I make, And keep hope quiet, lest that fear should wake. [_Aside. Exit_ HIPPOLITO. _Jul_. So, now I'm firmly at my own dispose; And all the lets, my virtue caused, removed: Now, Roderick, I come-- _Enter_ GONSALVO _again_. _Gons_. Madam, my boy's not yet returned. _Jul_. No matter, we'll not stay for him. _Gon_. Pray make not too much haste. [_Exeunt JUL. and GONS_. SCENE II. _Enter DON RODORICK, and a Servant_. _Rod_.
