Act V, Scene i:
Milan. An abbey

[Enter EGLAMOUR.]

EGLAMOUR:

The sun begins to gild the western sky,

And now it is about the very hour

That Silvia at Friar Patrick's cell should meet me.

She will not fail; for lovers break not hours

Unless it be to come before their time,

So much they spur their expedition.

See, where she comes.

[Enter SILVIA.]

Lady, a happy evening!

SILVIA:

Amen, amen! Go on, good Eglamour,

Out at the postern by the abbey wall.

I fear I am attended by some spies.

EGLAMOUR:

Fear not: the forest is not three leagues off;

If we recover that, we are sure enough.

[Exeunt.]
