Measure for Measure The Works of William Shakespeare [Cambridge Edition] [9 vols.]
SCENE V. _Fields without the town.
_Enter DUKE in his own habit, and FRIAR PETER._
_Duke._ These letters at fit time deliver me: [_Giving letters._ The provost knows our purpose and our plot. The matter being afoot, keep your instruction, And hold you ever to our special drift; Though sometimes you do blench from this to that, 5 As cause doth minister. Go call at Flavius' house, And tell him where I stay: give the like notice To Valentius, Rowland, and to Crassus, And bid them bring the trumpets to the gate; But send me Flavius first.
_Fri. P._ It shall be speeded well. [_Exit._ 10
_Enter VARRIUS._
_Duke._ I thank thee, Varrius; thou hast made good haste: Come, we will walk. There's other of our friends Will greet us here anon, my gentle Varrius. [_Exeunt._
