"Scene 4+5:
The next scene must be read backwards. Wilhelm receives the message about Harolds capture: The messager could be one of Harolds men who has managed to escape from Guy. Two of Wilhelms messengers ride off with great urgency. They arrive and meet count Guy who is dressed very neatly and is leaning on his Danish battle-axe. Turold is the name either of the dwarf or one of the messengers. Wilhelmês messengers demand both Harold and his men released. Guy takes Harold to Wilhelm who has ridden out to meet them. An armed escort accompanies both."
