Ask if the sea is salt, if ice is chill, But ask not if I love her memory, While, for her sake, I love this wilderness, Because it holds her bones. But why stand here, Awaiting sage instructions from yon wittol, And wasting the dear moments due to vengeance ? Goffe, in the eye of my revenge, my foe Seems tried and sentenced, bound and led to death. May he die a coward, and I see it ! SCENE VI. — The platform of a rude Fortress, near the Connecticut Morton alone, — Enter Ward. Mor. How now ? wha...t news ? Ward. Thy gallant foe hath left The cave, and join'd Kerhonah. As he fled, He dropped this pistol. Mor. Why, 'tis one of mine ! How came he by it ? — O W^ard, haste and arm Our people. Let us instantly pursue The traitor, ere he teach the foe to beat us. [Exit Ward. — Enter Mary. Mary. Dear Morton, dost thou shun me ? Thou art not offended ? Mor. No, my love. Mary. Then thou art ill. Thy cheek is paler, and thine eyes are blood-shot. Nay, something troubles thee. What is it ? Tell me.
