SCENE. II.--_Interior of the O'Malley's cell. Enter Tragic Heroine._

TRAGIC HEROINE.--"'Tis he!'tis he! Though how he managed to change his
clothes and put on such a nice coat, I can't imagine. Dearest, awake!"

O'MALLEY.--"Who calls? Is it the boy with the beer? Ha! my own darling.
Come to this embroidered waistcoat."

TRAGIC HEROINE.--"I have agreed to marry ULICK on condition he permits
you to escape."

O'MALLEY.--"Ha! base girl. Would ye onconvenience yourself to save me?
Never! I will not consent to your marrying ULICK. Try some other little

TRAGIC HEROINE.--"I will." _[Exit.]_

picturesque attitude. The Dutch General stands on the summit of a wall
three feet high, and leaning over the battlements--which tower to the
height of three inches--hands O'Malley a pardon. Enter Tragic Heroine
and everybody else._

TRAGIC HEROINE.--"O'MALLEY. I have saved you. Now save me. I have just
married ULICK. Kill him for me."

ULICK _and_ O'MALLEY _accordingly slash each other across the legs with
their rapiers._ O'MALLEY _kills_ ULICK _and embraces the TRAGIC HEROINE.
Everybody shouts "Hurroo!" and the curtain falls._
