SCENE III.
Duke. Secretary. Secular Priest.
Secretary.
Until this very moment, honor’d Prince,
Have I refrain’d from calling in a man
Who, also sad, appears before thee now.
He is the priest who from the hand of death
Receiv’d thy daughter, and when hope was none
Of saving her, with all a father’s care
Provided everything that love could do.
