SCENE V.

A Street in Antwerp. — The Carnival at its height. — The Street crowded with Masquers, of every description. A Placard is affixed to the wall, which runs (the Placard, not the wall) as follows:
FIVE POUNDS REWARD!
"Whereas, an individual commonly called Richard I., King of England, has escaped from the Castle of Hagenau, the above Reward will be paid to any one who will apprehend him. He is a tallish, middle-aged, heavy-featured kind of man, and is supposed to be lurking about Antwerp.
"N. B. The Police must be prepared for him, as he will probably make a desperate resistance."
King R. and Blondel enter, read the Placard, and then disappear among the Masquers. — Policemen are seen examining each one attentively. — Respectable elderly Quaker gentleman, who is making a tour of the Continent, enters, with his Aunt on one arm and his eldest unmarried Sister on the other, to enjoy the scene. Blondel comes forward and beckons to a Policeman, who approaches. — Blondel puts the fore finger of his right hand on the right side of his nose, and makes a motion, with the thumb of his left hand, over his left shoulder.

Policeman compares the Quaker gentleman with the description in the Placard, and seems perfectly convinced of his identity; then beckons to other Policemen. — They walk quietly up behind the Quaker gentleman, and with one blow, on the top of his hat, "bonnet" him. — General row and confusion; Women scream and shriek, of course; Quaker gentleman is hustled off.
