Guta

---

They want to embrace. but Guta pulls back.

Eph. Ungrateful, unfaithful, hate, why do you flee me.

Guta. Lord Bishop, take me away. Do what you promised.

King. What does she want?

Bish. Uncover the corpse. Ephraim killed her father yesterday.

King. Ha what is the dead man doing here?

Gut. O my father!!

Eph. How??

Bish. whom your husband struck down.

King O God!

Ephraim (Toward the corpse)

Guta (With a scream, covering it) away - away!

Bish. She wants to enter the convent, wants no longer to belong to the bond, to preserve that which her father plowed. The decision is praiseworthy, I myself would have advised her.

King In initial zeal it has happened, and yet, it seems unheard of to me myself, I would hear my daughters' curse, if they loved men who robbed me with murder. Ephraim, surrender yourself, God wills it and human feeling.

Eph. I, strike down the Marshal, yesterday in the riot. Who devised the monstrous lie?

Batth. Mr. Knight, you forget yourself.

Eph. Ha, is it you. Well yes, now I understand. Mr. King, I always rode at your side - you know...

King. The further incidents were taffer? behind us, I do not know the reference, what happened behind me. And furthermore, I am the judge.
