ô no more would I were he so pleasd But would as well as thou go follow him Through brakes and thickets ouer cliffes and rockes So long as I had life to follow him Would he but looke vpon me with that eye Of fauour as h 'is vs'd to looke on thee Thou canst be clapt and strookt with that faire hande That thrustes away my heart and beates it back From following him which yet it euer will And though he fly mee I must after still But here he comes me thought he was not farre Car. What meane you Amarillis in this sorte By taking vp my dogge to marre my sporte Am. My deare Carinus thou dost much mistake I doe not marre thy sporte t is thou marrst mine And killst my ioyes with that hard heart of thine Thy dooge perhaps by some instinct doth know How that I am his maisters creature too And kindely comes himselfe and fawnes on me To shew what you in nature ought to doe Car. Fie Amarillis you that know my minde Should not me thinkes this euer trouble me Am. What is it troublesome to be belou'd How is it then Carinus to be loath'd If I had donne like Cloris skornd your sute And spourn'd your passions in disdainefull sorte I had bene woo'd and sought and highly prizd But hauing n'other arte to win thy loue Saue by discouering mine I am despisd As if you would not haue the thing you sought Vnles you knew it were not to be gote And now because I lie here at thy feete The humble booty of thy conquering eies And lay my heart all open in thy sight And tell thee I am thine and tell thee right And doe not sure my lookes nor cloth my words In other coulours then my thoughts do weare But doe thee right in all thou skornest me As if thou didst not loue sinceritie Neuer did Crystall more apparantly Present the coulour it contayn'd with in Then haue these eyes these teares this tongue of mine Bewreyd my heart and told how much I 'am thine Ca. T is true I know you haue too much bewrayd And more then fitts the honour of a mayde Am. O if that nature hath not arm'd my breast With that strong temper of resisting proofe But that by treason of my weake complection I Am made thus easy to the violent shott Of passion and th' affection I should not Me thinks yet you out of your strength and power Should not disdayne that weakenes but should thinke It rather is your vertue as indeed It is that makes me thus against my kinde T' vnlock my thoughs and to let out my minde When I should rather die and burst with loue Then once to let my tongue to say I loue And if your worthy partes be of that power To vanquish nature and I must be wonne Do not disdayne the worke when you haue don For in contemming me you do dispise That power of yours which makes me to be thus Ca. Now what adoe is here with idle talke And to no purpose for you know I haue Ingagd long since my heart my loue and all To Cloris who must haue the same and shall Am. Why there is no such odds twixt her and me I am a Nimph t is knowne as well as shee There is no other difference betwixt vs twaine But that I loue and she doth thee disdaine No other reason can induce thy minde But onely that which should diuert thy minde I will attend thy flockes better then she And dresse thy Bower more sweete more daintily And cheerish thee with Salets and with Fruites And all fresh dainties as the season sutes I haue more skill in heat bes then she by farre I know which nourish which restoring are And I will finde Dictamnus for thy Goates And seeke out Clauer for thy little Lambes And Tetrifoll to cheerish vp their Dammes And this I know I haue a better voyce Then she though she perhaps may haue more arte But which is best I haue the faithfulst heart Besides Amyntas hath her loue I know And she begins to manifest it now Car. Amyntas haue her loue that were most strange When he hath gotten that you shall haue mine Am. O deere Carinus let me rest vpon That blessed word of thine and I haue done Scen. 2. Mirtillus Carinus Amarillis Mir. Well met Carinus I can tell you newes Your riuall poore Amyntas hath vndone And spoild himselfe and lyes in that weake case As we thinke neuer more to see his face Car. Mirtillus I am sory t' heare so much Although Amyntas be competitor In th' Empire of her heart wherein my life Hath chiefest claime I doe not wish his death But by what chance Mirtillus pray thee tell Mil. I will Carinus though I grieue to tell As Titerus Menaleus and my selfe Were placing of our toyles against anon That we shall hunt below within the straight Twixt Eremanthus and Lycaeus mount We might perceiue vnder a ragged cliffe In that most vncouth desart all alone Distrest Amyntas lying on the ground With his sad face turnd close vnto the rock As if he loathd to see more of the world Then that poore space which was twixt him and it His right hand stretcht along vpon his side His leaft he makes the pillor to support His carefull head his Pipe he had hung vp Vpon a Beach tree by where he likewise Had plac'd his Sheephooke and his Knife wherewith He had incaru'd an wofull Elegie To shew th' occasion of his miserie His dogge Molampus sitting by his side As if he were partaker of his woe By which we knew 't was he and to him went And after we had call'd and shooke him vp And found him not to answere nor to stirre And yet his eyes abroad his body warme We tooke him vp and held him from the ground But could not make him stand by any meanes And sincking downe againe we searcht to see If he had any wound or blow or wrinch But none could finde at last by chance we spide A little horne which he had slung aside Whereby we gest he had some poyson tooke And therevpon we sent out presently To fetch Vrania whose great skill in hearbes Is such as if there any meanes will be As I feare none will be her onely arte Must serue to bring him to himselfe againe Car. Indeed Vrania hath bene knowne t' haue done Most desperate cures and peraduenture may Restore him yet I doe wish she may Mir. But hauing there vs'd all the helpe we could And all in vaine and standing by with griefe As we might well to see so sad a sight And such an worthy Shepheard in that plight We might perceiue come running downe the hill Cloris and Techne with what speed they could But Cloris had got ground and was before And made more haste as it concernd her more And neerer as she came she faster went As if she did desire to haue bene there Before her feete too flow for her swift feare And comming to
