how he talks I shall have more ado to allure him to this duel then a crack'd Courtier has to perswade an Usurer to become surety for him Bec.

O gods is this the height of all your wrath May I expect a requiem in this stroak Yes sure then graciously be pleas'd to hear My ardent votes O may my blood appease Your incens'd mindes restore my lawfull Prince Let Marciano live Let nothing hurt him O hear him hear him if there be a faith Able to reach your mercy let him have it I plead none for my self O love assist me Courage beyond the ordinar of my sex Support my spirits in this agony Death 's but the thaw of all our vanity weeps Enter Borasco quietly Bor. Nay now my soul dissolve 't is but a trouble To keep thy quarter in this perplexed body O unkind Se●ate eyes have not seen a fairer Modell of beauty Sure no hatchet dares Be horse-leech to her veines or if it does All iron shall be quite accurs'd hereafter No ther 's an angell keeps that paradice A fiery angell guards her Vertue vertue Ever and endlesse vertue O rare beauty The neerest to her maker and the purest That ever dull flesh shew'd us such another Could make attonement for half her sex See how she weeps Ar.

That 's all one to us Sir Pant. I see I must do it there is no way else to escape aside Gentlemen I know what will please you because we have brought you into the fields that you may not be angry as Becabunga sayes I will renounce all the right I can have or claim in the Lady Chrysolina Leon.

Come come we know the worst on 't let them go we will never want great matches yet let us think now to be revenged on them villains Cassio and Leonardo the first time I meet any of them I will cut the tongue out of their heads that they shall never talk more Bec. I so will I too but we must have Manduco with us then for he will make them stand in awe of him Exeunt Scaena Tertia Enter Marciano solus as at Pisa. THat she 's escap'd that I know certainly So letters from Siena have inform'd me But by what means or where she is I know not Never remembers him who if he should Forget her but one hour would think he had Offended highly yet she 's silent still If I receive no letters from her shortly I 'le become jealous of her sure that she Who was all love is now so quickly cold In her affections But what I blaspheme The vertuous Arabella she 's all vertue And cannot prove unconstant Now let me meditate on what my Prince Hath order'd me to do He 's still the same And bears a mind that floats above the waves Of all adversities as who should say Fortune even do thy worst His Counsellours Like to wise Marriners affray'd to stretch The top sayles of their courage in this tempest Least both they and their Prince should suffer shipwrack Only was I commanded some years since Upon an expedition to Siena Encourag'd by th'affectionate expressions And actions of the valiant Cassanaeo And others of our loyal country-men But fortune crush'd our enterprises so I did return to Savoy where my Prince Did then reside and now I am commanded To second here an enterprise at Pisa Which whether it succeed or not my duty Is yet at least to prosecute it A post-horn sounds within How 's this a post-horn good Enter Strenuo with a Letter Str. All 's well my Lord now do our joyes begin To flourish after such a tedious winter The Duk 's restor'd and now intends at Florence Here here 's a letter for it from himself Marc. Restor'd Nay hold my heart I 'l read this letter reads True True O fortune how I hugge thee now And thou my good friend Strenuo embraces him Str. Brave dayes my Lord the Court does fill apace The Ladies croud in throngs the glory of Her sex your darling the fair Arabella Since clouds of melancholly are overblown Does now appear in loves full horizon Marc. O how propitious lend me moderation Reins to my joy as well as to my sorrow Else I shall quickly burst to death this bless'd And unexpected Tarantula of news So ticles all my senses joyfull tidings My Prince restor'd my dearest Arabella At Court I now my felicity lacks nothing But sight to be compleat that my eyes may Perswade my yet almost incredulous soul To what my fancy never durst have prompted To horse To horse I 'le post to Florence quickly Exit post-horn sounds Scaena Quarta Enter Pantaloni Becabunga and Manduco with swords by their sides Man O Tempora O mores O the effraenate licentious perversity of untamed adolescency what a villanous scelerate attempt to entice two young Gentlemen to a Duel who besides that they are both innocent Boyes why their very Uncles and other friends are employed in serious negotiations of the Senate Prob Deum atque hominum fidem Is all my industry in sollicitation my immense study and lucrubrations for framing familiar epistles my oratory in private commendations and exhortations for both these Gentlemen come to nought Proh facinus ingens Pant. Peace Mr. Manduco you must not only teach us how to beat but likewise assist us in beating these dissolute fellows for I have sworn Sir and that is enough Bec. I so I say too for you know we wear our swords here for no other end look you are not my hilts very handsome O now I will swear By these hilts as well as Leonardo himself Man And for that effect I have got my sword too I am lenis in puniendo but when I am provoked invenient me ●●onem they shall find me a very Lyon my schollars at Santo Burgo where I was sometimes ludimagister can yet testifie that and for my severity in castigando Probatum est Pant. Although Leonardo has got my Mistris yet I 'le have about with him albeit he be a Senatours son in law with a mischief to his heart when such Gentlemen of estates as I am shak'd off Bec. And for me since Cassio has got my Mistris let him keep her I must look out for some other great match in time for they say Manduco that now since the ●uk's restor'd they who were active in the late rebellion must be forfeit of their estates and what will become of my Patrimony then for you know my father has been a great man all this while I fear he never be so again now you know if I loss my Estate how shall I have a wife then what think you Pantaloni Pant draws Pant. Nay I can think on nothing now but how to thrust at Leonardo Bec. So I will draw too if you come to that with it Bec. draws Man And for me I love no dimication but when I am provoked I will assist you Et sic arma amens capio nec sat rationis in armis Man puts the hilts of his sword betwixt his feet and tuggs at it violently Enter Cassio Leonardo with Chrys.
