SCENE IV.--GATES OPEN.

VORTIGERN _appears in robes of majesty, followed by the Barons and British troops_.

CATAGRINUS _kneels to_ VORTIGERN.

_Vor._ Rise, my dear son! thou’rt welcome home again: And you, brave Saxons, greet we to our land.

_Heng._ We come, great sir, to fight in thy defence, And from thy kingdom wipe away rebellion.

_Vor._ Give me thy hand, brave general; and with it, Exchange we mutually a soldier’s faith. Here let our British troops in friendship join, And with the Saxons share our present joy.

[_Exeunt._
