PARIS 
2387  It is great morning, and the hour prefixed
2388  For her delivery to this valiant Greek
2389  Comes fast upon. Good my brother Troilus,
2390  Tell you the lady what she is to do
2391 5 And haste her to the purpose.
TROILUS  2392  Walk into her house.
2393  I’ll bring her to the Grecian presently;
2394  And to his hand when I deliver her,
2395  Think it an altar and thy brother Troilus
2396 10 A priest there off’ring to it his own heart.He exits.
PARIS  2397 I know what ’tis to love,
2398  And would, as I shall pity, I could help.—
2399  Please you walk in, my lords?
They exit.
