Jean
Judas betrays Jesus Christ.
Герцог Гиз покидает Маргариту де Нуармутье, и попадает в западню. Король расставляет убийц, на пути Гиза, переходя от одного к другому, натравливает, улыбается, ободряет, проверяет их шпаги, пробуя их остроту кончиком пальца. Появляется герцог, смелый, с решимостью во взоре, с гордой осанкой, уверенный в своих силах. Едва он переступает порог королевской комнаты как его тут же хватают и закалывают. Он делает несколько шагов и падает. На земле валяется подушка короля с монограммой в короне; её герцог схватил случайно, пытаясь защититься от ударов. Убийцы с облегчением вздыхают. Генрих велит обыскать труп. Письмо, которое находят, возбуждает в нем злобу. Шестеро убийц с трудом тащат громадное тело герцога вниз по лестнице. Его обвертывают соломой и бросают на пылающие в камине поленья.
