Cymbeline, Act 3, sns. 1-3

Cymbeline is visited by Cauis Lucius from Rome, who wanted the tribute, but Cymbeline was urged by his wife and son to say no. Cymbeline tells Cauis Lucius no, and Cauis Lucius says "Then War!"Back in Imogen's rooms, Posthumous's servant gets a letter telling him to kill Imogen a Milford Haven, with Imogen being told to go there. She knows nothing of Pisanio's letter, and is ready to go.  Posthumous believes that Imogen was unfaithful, though she was not. Change of scene to a cave, with a man called Morgan, and two boys called Cadwal and Polydor. Morgan's real name is Belarius, and, though they know it not, being stolen from the king, Cadwal is really Arviragus,and Polydor Guiderius, who is the older.

more next week,
Bell
