That he will publish to the world the crime by which we rose to power--that he will denounce our forged letters and receipts--that he will send us both to the scaffold. That is what he can answer. (MARSHAL: Are you out of your mind?) Nay, that is what he has already answered?

MARSHAL (with a look of bewildered stupidity). I am at my wits' end!
