No exorciser harm thee!



              ARVIRAGUS
               Nor no witchcraft charm thee!



              GUIDERIUS
               Ghost unlaid forbear thee!



              ARVIRAGUS
               Nothing ill come near thee!



              BOTH
               Quiet consummation have, [280]
               And renowned be thy grave!



                                    Re-enter Belarius with the body of Cloten.


              GUIDERIUS

               We have done our obsequies: come, lay him down.



              BELARIUS
               Here’s a few flowers, but ’bout midnight more:
               The herbs that have on them cold dew o’ th’ night
               Are strewings fitt’st for graves: upon their faces. [285]
               You were as flowers, now wither’d: even so

               These herblets shall, which we upon you strew.
               Come on, away, apart upon our knees:
               The ground that gave them first has them again:

               Their pleasures here are past, so is their pain. [290]
                                                        [Exeunt Belarius, Guiderius, and Arviragus.]



              IMOGEN
          [awakes]
               Yes sir, to Milford-Haven, which is the way?
               I thank you: by yond bush? pray, how far thither?

               ’Ods pittikins: can it be six mile yet?
               I have gone all night: faith, I’ll lie down and sleep.
