ACT IV IT

Scene I IT

Enter certain Outlaws.

FIRST OUTLAW

Fellows, stand fast; I see a passenger.

SECOND OUTLAW

If there be ten, shrink not, but down with ’em.
[Enter Valentine and Speed]

THIRD OUTLAW

Stand, sir, and throw us that you have about ye;
If not, we’ll make you sit, and rifle you.

SPEED

Sir, we are undone; these are the villains [5]
That all the travellers do fear so much.

VALENT INE

My friends -

FIRST OUTLAW

That’s not so, sir; we are your enemies.

SECOND OUTLAW

Peace! We’ll hear him.

THIRD OUTLAW

Ay, by my beard, will we; for he’s a proper man. [10]
