(_Enter_ EMILY.)


PRIORESS. O Emelye, let that hair's golden ray
Shine on our vengeance ere another day.


EMILY. The path of duty plain is to be seen.


(_Enter_ HIPPOLYTA, _the queen._)


EMILY. Ladies, this is Hippolyta, the queen.


(_They all bow, the_ PRIORESS _with delicate grace, the_ WIFE _with a
clumsy courtesy_.)


EMILY. My sister is a famous Amazon.


HIPPOLYTA. I have no grievance, but I want the fun.


PRIORESS. In courtesye lay ever my desire.
