i_o of_o that_o thought_n and_o since_o i_o have_v no_o more_o than_o a_o few_o minute_n to_o live_v i_o must_v whole_o give_v they_o to_o he_o who_o otherwhile_o do_v save_v my_o life_n to_o he_o who_o at_o this_o time_n do_v weep_v my_o death_n although_o it_o have_v hinder_v his_o and_o to_o he_o who_o care_n shall_v immortalize_v i_o as_o well_o i_o do_v not_o think_v that_o my_o silence_n will_v stop_v your_o moan_n and_o i_o also_o believe_v that_o you_o will_v never_o be_v more_o afflict_a than_o when_o this_o silence_n shall_v become_v eternal_a prepare_v yourself_o however_o for_o it_o for_o i_o feel_v my_o fatal_a hour_n approach_v my_o strength_n diminish_v my_o voice_n fail_v and_o i_o shall_v hardly_o have_v the_o time_n to_o tell_v you_o that_o clorinda_n die_v without_o any_o other_o sorrow_n than_o that_o which_o you_o do_v cause_n in_o she_o that_o she_o esteem_v the_o end_n of_o her_o day_n for_o the_o most_o glorious_a of_o all_o her_o adventure_n that_o be_v bear_v upon_o the_o throne_n she_o do_v not_o care_n though_o she_o die_v on_o the_o dust_n since_o it_o be_v with_o honour_n that_o have_v live_v with_o innocency_n and_o reputation_n without_o

have_v find_v in_o the_o same_o person_n a_o enemy_n so_o courteous_a as_o even_o to_o save_v her_o life_n a_o knight_n so_o valiant_a as_o to_o make_v her_o death_n illustrious_a a_o conqueror_n so_o compassionate_a as_o to_o weep_v at_o his_o own_o victory_n and_o a_o lover_n so_o passionate_a and_o so_o heroic_a as_o to_o make_v her_o hope_n that_o he_o will_v conserve_v that_o affection_n very_o pure_a even_o to_o his_o last_o breath_n adieu_o than_o prince_n too_o unfortunate_a to_o be_v so_o generous_a my_o voice_n fail_v i_o i_o lose_v my_o sight_n and_o breath_n but_o if_o it_o

discourse_n may_v have_v inspire_v do_v not_o miss_v of_o find_v place_n in_o the_o afflict_a spirit_n of_o tancred_n he_o weep_v and_o weep_v a_o long_a time_n for_o so_o extraordinary_a a_o misfortune_n and_o for_o so_o fearful_a a_o adventure_n and_o we_o may_v believe_v that_o he_o weep_v ever_o since_o erminia_n how_o lovely_a &_o how_o much_o a_o lover_n soever_o she_o be_v can_v never_o comfort_v he_o for_o the_o death_n of_o clorinda_n nevertheless_o be_v not_o you_o persuade_v that_o he_o be_v so_o that_o the_o affection_n ought_v not_o to_o die_v with_o the_o belove_a but_o suspend_v at_o least_o your_o judgement_n since_o this_o other_o princess_n have_v somewhat_o to_o say_v thereon_o harken_v better_o to_o she_o than_o tancred_n do_v hearken_v for_o in_o truth_n she_o be_v too_o worthy_a of_o compassion_n to_o be_v suffer_v to_o die_v for_o a_o dead_a one_o or_o at_o least_o for_o not_o hear_v of_o she_o erminia_n to_o arsetes_n the_o five_o harangue_n the_o argument_n after_o that_o tancred_n have_v kill_v clorinda_n as_o you_o have_v see_v before_o the_o prince_n appear_v inconsolable_a and_o hardly_o can_v that_o famous_a hermit_n which_o follow_v

who_o maintain_v that_o tancred_n have_v reason_n to_o do_v so_o she_o end_v avour_v to_o make_v he_o confess_v to_o ease_v her_o sorrow_n that_o the_o affection_n ought_v not_o to_o go_v beyond_o

as_o to_o see_v his_o mistress_n enter_v into_o the_o monument_n never_o ought_v to_o have_v any_o thought_n of_o make_v any_o other_o conquest_n those_o people_n i_o say_v be_v equal_o ignorant_a

to_o find_v it_o ill_o that_o you_o bestow_v your_o tear_n to_o the_o memory_n of_o the_o valiant_a clorinda_n i_o consent_v likewise_o that_o the_o generous_a tancred_n mingle_v his_o with_o you_o
