Come then I will help Mass Master I think his mother sung looby to him he is so heavy Exeunt Muce. Behold the fickle state of man always mutable never at one Sometime we feed our fancies with the sweet of our desires Sometimes again we feel the heat of extream miseries Now am I in favour about the Court and Country To morrow those favours will turn to frowns To day I live revenged on my foe To morrow I die my foe revenged on me Exit Enter Bremo a wild man Bremo No passenger this morning what not one A chance that seldom doth befall What not one Then lie thou there And rest thy self til I have further need Now Bremo sith thy leasure so affords An endless thing who knows not Bremoes strength Who like a King commands within these woods The Bear the Boar dare not abide his sight But haste away to save themselvess by flight The Chrystal waters in the bubling brooks When I come by do swiftly slide away And claps themselves in closets under banks Afraid to look bold Bremo in the face The aged Oaks at Bremoes breath do bow And all things else are still at my command Else what would I Rend them in pieces and pluck them from the earth And each way else I would revenge myself Why who comes here with whom dare I not fight Who fights with me and doth not die the death Not one What favour shews this sturdy stick to those That here within these woods are combatants with me Why death and nothing else but present death With restless rage I wander through these woods No creature here but feareth Bremoes force Man woman child beast and bird And every thing that doth approach my sight Are forst to fall if Bremo once do frown Come Cudgel come my partner in my spoils For here I see this day it will not be But when it falls that I encounter any One pat sufficeth for to work my will What comes not one then le ts be gone A time will serve when we shall better speed Exit Enter the King Segasto the Shepherd the Clown with others King Shepherd thou staft heard thine accusers Murther is laid to thy charge What canst thou say thou hast deserved death Muce.
