and O'Hara._
DUTCH GENERAL.--"O'HARA, I dinks you pe ein repel. ULICK is searging
your bapers. If he finds something you shall be hanged." _[Enter
Ulick.]_
ULICK.--"I have searched O'HARA's trunk, and the drawer where he keeps
his other stocking. I have found nothing."
DUTCH GENERAL.--"I still pelieve him a traitor, but I gannot brove it."
_[Exit.]_
ULICK.--"O'HARA, listen. I have lied. I hold here in my left coat-tail
pocket the proofs of your treachery. Give me your daughter and help me
hang O'MALLEY, or I will ruin you."
O'HARA.--"I am in your power. Do as you please." _[Enter Tragic
Heroine.]_
TRAGIC HEROINE.--"Never. ULICK shall neither marry me nor hang
O'MALLEY."
ULICK.--"Young woman, I will lock you in this room for a year or two,
until O'MALLEY is thoroughly hung. Come, O'HARA." _[Exeunt.]_
TRAGIC HEROINE.--"I must escape and warn O'MALLEY. But how? I have it. I
can leap out of the window into the sea: I can then swim in full
ball-dress to O'MALLEY'S castle, which is only twenty leagues from here.
I will warn him, and fly with him. Courage. I will remove my back-hair
and make the hazardous leap." _[She leaps.]_
