Act III, Scene 3

THE PASSAGE LEADING TO VOLPONE'S CHAMBER.

ENTER MOSCA AND BONARIO.

MOS: Sir, here conceal'd,
[SHEWS HIM A CLOSET.]
you may hear all. But, pray you,
Have patience, sir;
[KNOCKING WITHIN.]
--the same's your father knocks:
I am compell'd to leave you.

[EXIT.]

BON: Do so.--Yet,
Cannot my thought imagine this a truth.

[GOES INTO THE CLOSET.]
