Tis well advisde Dumain, goe see it strait be done.
And in the mean time my Lord, could we devise,
To get those pedantes from the King Navarre,
that are tutors to him and the prince of Condy.

For that let me alone, Cousin stay you heer,
And when you see me in, then follow hard. He knocketh, and enter the King of Navarre and Prince of Condy, with their scholmaisters.
How now my Lords, how fare you?

But yet my Lord the report doth run,
That you were one that made this Massacre.

And now sirs for this night let our fury stay.
Yet will we not the Massacre shall end,

And spare not one that you suspect of heresy.
