The Massacre
See where my Souldier shot him through the arm.
He mist him neer, but we have strook him now.
Ah base Shatillian and degenerate, cheef standard bearer to the Lutheranes,
Thus in despite of thy Religion,
The Duke of Guise stampes on thy liveles bulke.
Anjoy.
Away with him, cut of his head and handes.
And send them for a present to the Pope:
And when this just revenge is finished,
Unto mount Faucon will we dragge his coarse:
And he that living hated so the crosse,
Shall being dead, be hangd thereon in chaines.
Guise.
Anjoy, Gonzago, Retes, if that you three,
Will be as resolute as I and Dumaine:
There shall not a Hugonet breath in France.
Anjoy.
I sweare by this crosse, wee'l not be partiall,
But slay as many as we can come neer.
Guise.
Mountsorrell, goe shoote the ordinance of,
That they which have already set the street
May know their watchword and then tole the bell,
And so lets forward to the Massacre.
Mount.
I will my Lord. Exit Mount.
Guise.
And now my Lords let us closely to our busines.
Anjoy.
Anjoy will follow thee.
Du.
And so will Dumaine.The ordinance being shot of, the bell tolles.
Guise.
Come then, lets away. Exeunt.
