Scene Ten
FAIRFAX and IRETON leave the stage. CROMWELL alone.
Enter LENTHALL.
CROMWELL. Speaker Lenthall.
LENTHALL. Lieutenant General.
CROMWELL. The Army leadership has a delicate and important task for you.
LENTHALL. I am pleased to serve.
CROMWELL. The King is to be moved to Windsor. You are to go to him there, secretly. Secretly! And offer him certain terms.
LENTHALL. Yes, General.
CROMWELL. You will also give him a personal message from me. None of this will be on paper. (A moment.) You will tell His Majesty that if he settles with the Army, even now, there need not be a trial.
LENTHALL. I...
CROMWELL. Tell him that.
LENTHALL. I cannot speak for Parliament...
CROMWELL. No, you will be speaking for me.
A pause.
LENTHALL. Yes, General.
LENTHALL exits.
CROMWELL. Lord, is Your power in my hand? Do I still hold Your sword, to make peace?
Exit CROMWELL.
End of Scene Ten.
