Act Five, Scene Ten

At the Scrutineo, Voltore confesses to the Avocatori that he misled them. Volpone leaves the courthouse. Corvino steps in to prevent Voltore from incriminating himself as well as the other three would-be heirs. Voltore, however, gives to the Avocatori his notes, which describe in detail the lie which Mosca, Corbaccio, Corvino, Voltore, and Lady Would-be conspired to construct. Corvino and Corbaccio deny the truth of the notes, saying that Voltore is possessed by the devil.
