And save me with you, for I'll share your fate.

_King._ Wilt thou go too?
Then I am reconciled to heaven again:

The hero that abandoned burning Troy;

When, loaded with his gods, he took his flight.
[_Exuent, the King leading her._

SCENE I.--_The Castle of Blois._

_Gril._ Welcome, colonel, welcome to Blois.

The world's turned upside down.

_Gril._ No, 'faith, 'tis better now, 'tis downside up:

_Alph._ Who looked for an assembly of the States?
