[SCENA TERTIA.
_A Room in Bussy's House_.]
_D'Ambois, with two Pages with tapers._
_Bussy._ Sit up to night, and watch: Ile speak with none
But the old Frier, who bring to me.
_Pages._ We will, sir. _Exeunt._
_Buss._ What violent heat is this? me thinks the fire
Of twenty lives doth on a suddaine flash
Through all my faculties: the ayre goes high 5
In this close chamber and the frighted earth _Thunder._
Trembles and shrinks beneath me; the whole house
Nods with his shaken burthen.
_Enter Umb[ra] Frier._
Blesse me, heaven!
_Umb[ra Friar]._ Note what I want, deare sonne, and be
fore-warn'd.
O there are bloudy deeds past and to come. 10
I cannot stay; a fate doth ravish me;
Ile meet thee in the chamber of thy love. _Exit._
