SCENE III.--GATES OF LONDON.

_Enter_ CATAGRINUS, HENGIST, _and_ HORSUS, _with Saxon troops, in grand procession_.

_Cata._ Here halt we then, and let the trumpet sound.

[_Trumpet sounds. Officer appears on the walls._

_Off._ Say, be ye friends or foes?

_Cata._ My father sent us hence to Saxony; Go, say our embassy is now fulfill’d.

[_Trumpet sounds._

Yet soft, that sound proclaims his quick approach.

_Heng._ Throughout the ranks let each man be prepar’d, To hail our new ally, King Vortigern.
