Act Five finds Volpone recovering from the strain. He orders his
creatures to announce his death in the streets; then he makes a will in
which Mosca is declared his heir and goes to hide behind a curtain,
intending to watch the effect on each one. Voltore arrives first, as
Mosca is busy making a list of goods; Corbaccio follows, then Corvino,
and Lady Politic. Each is surprised to see the others. Volpone comments
on their conduct in asides from behind the curtain. Mosca continues to
write, then hands them the will, that they read together, although
Corbaccio only finds Mosca's name a while later than the others. Mosca
sends Lady Politic away first, then Corvino, Corbaccio, and finally
Voltore, after giving to each a moralizing summary of their previous
actions.
Volpone is delighted, wishes he could see their disappointment out on
the streets. Mosca suggests that he disguise himself as a common
sergeant. There is an interlude where Peregrine in disguise tells Sir
Politic that he has been denounced as a foreign agent. Sir Politic
decides to disguise himself in a huge turtle's shell; Peregrine brings
in some merchants to admire the beast, and they torment Sir Politic. He
decides to leave at once. Volpone dresses as a soldier, Mosca has put on
a nobleman's dress; they plan to go walking in the streets, but Mosca
tells us he plans to make Volpone share his fortune with him, and stays
behind in control of the house. Volpone congratulates each of the
clients on their good fortune, and enjoys their fury.
They are all going to the court, where Bonario and Celia are to be
sentenced. Voltore suddenly begins to repent, and is about to tell the
truth, it seems. He has written certain aspects of the truth in his
notes. The others claim that he has been bewitched; news of Volpone's
death supports their story. As Voltore is about to speak, the disguised
Volpone whispers to him that Mosca wants him to know that in fact
Volpone is not yet dead and that he is still the heir. Voltore pretends
to collapse and Volpone declares that an evil spirit has just left him.
He rises, and declares that Volpone is alive. Mosca comes in, and
insists Volpone is dead. Meanwhile, Volpone has realized Mosca's plan
against him; he tries to negociate in whispers, but Mosca rejects him
and asks the judges to punish him.
In despair, Volpone throws off his disguise, and everything becomes
clear; Bonario and Celia are freed, Mosca is condemned to be a
'perpetual prisoner in our galleys,' prison ships where no one survived
long. All Volpone's fortune is confiscated to help the sick, and he is
to stay in prison until he is 'sick and lame indeed.' Voltore is
banished, Corbaccio sent to a monastery to die, Corvino will be rowed
round Venice wearing ass's ears then put in the pillory, and Celia is
returned to her family with three times her dowry.

Non, c'est fait lorsqu'il y a des révélations. Je ne vois pas ce que les
chiens viennent faire la dedans. Merci de poster sur le forum animalier
