THE HEIR OF MOROCCO WITH THE Death of Gayland Acted at the THEATRE ROYAL By E. SETTLE Rectius Iliacum Carmen deducis in Actus Quam si proferres ignota indictaque primus Hor. LONDON Printed for William Cademan at the Popes Head in the Lower Walk of the New Exchange 1682. TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE THE LADY HENRIETTA WENTWORTH BARONESS OF NETTLESTED MADAM I Ought to beg your Ladyships Pardon when I lay so inconsiderable a Trifle as a Play at your Ladyships Feet the access to so much Divinity being that difficult awful Blessing that nothing mean or unhallowed should dare to aspire to Yet Greatness and Beauty whatever Awe they may strike into all other Adorers are not defended from the bolder Devotions of Poetry For such is the Poets Presumption that they have so long convers'd with Princes in Effigie till they have borrowed their Ambitition from the Heroes they write and their Confidence from the Stage that represents them 'T is true we live in an Age so Critical and so severe that the Muses melancholy Groves grow every day more desolate and even their softest Ayres to the late untunable Ears sound harsh and unpleasant poor Poetry being so maliciously persecuted that nothing but the Patronage of a Great Name can give it a Pass to go peaceably and unmolested And in these Circumstances Self-preservation and Security make our Boldness a little more excusable The poorest ragged Traveller that seeks a Shelter in a Storm though under the Battlements of an Imperial Palace is not much to be blamed This 't is that makes Poetry always come into the World under the Umbrage of Quality whilst Poets like their blind Original never venture abroad without a Guide Nor can even the weakest Brother of the Muses fail when Greatness and Beauty are at once its powerful Supporters The Lady Henrietta's Name will prove a Charm against the sharpest Criticks What Malice dares strike where so much Beauty shields And indeed Wit can hope for no Success but when favored by the Fair and 't is by their Influence alone the Poets if ever can be made immortal who in return can but faintly pay their Tribute to a Power so favorable since your Ladyship has a far greater Title to be Eternal in the Records of Fame from the vast Merits of your Illustrious Ancestors than all the Poetry since the World began can make you The Famous Earl of Cleveland and the no less Famous Lord Wentworth both Generals under our late Sacred Majesty are those never-to-be-forgotten Heroes that whilst the World shall have an Ear and Wonder a Tongue shall never want a Name Worthies of that generous Zeal and indefatigable Allegiance till they drein'd their Estates so low that the fought even to the Nakedness of a Gladiator Their Loyalty and the Service of their King being not only their Study but their Religion insomuch that like him that resignes his Share in the World for an Interest in Heaven they were so little dejected even at Ruine it self when in a Cause so Glorious that they bore the very Pouerty of Philosophers with the Pride of Triumphers and the Pleasure of Martyrs And to attain the highest Character of Perfection that Humanity ever reacht with the Bravery and Courage of an Alexander they had the Peace and Content of a Diogenes But their Honorable Losses your Ladyships kinder Stars have amply repaid And all those Debts of Providence those Loyal Sufferers did not live long enough to receive their Arrears of Glory are in your Ladyships compleater Happiness entail'd on their Posterity The Lady Henrietta has a Person and a Mind so richly endowed and to these that Prodigious Mass of Worldly Blessings as if Providence had studied to adde new Ornaments to Her whose Birth Charms and Vertues in themselves alone render'd her a Beauty inaccessible So just it is that such Infinite Perfections should be no little Care of Heaven that are so great a part of it But in the strange and prosperous Recovery of your Ladyships exhausted Patrimonies the unexampled Industry of the Lady Philadelphia your Ladyships pious Mother to her immortal praise will never be forgotten When Fate by a too early Stroak had rob'd her of her dear Lord she stept into a Seat so strangely demolish'd beheld those Ruines of an Estate where the Thunder of the War had made the Desolation so low and the Breaches so wide that the frightful Prospect would have daunted a more than Female Spirit where all hopes of Re-building would appear an Attempt altogether impossible Yet that Attempt the bolder Lady Philadelphia resolved and finish'd stemm'd all the adverse Tides of Fortune to gather up her Family's Shipwracks and with that incredible Pains and no less wonderful Success that she has rather created than repaired an Estate has miraculously heaped together an infinite Treasure with no less Toil than if she had labor'd in the Mine and dig'd the very Oar that form'd it Never was a losing Hand so ingeniously play'd nor a last Stake so artfully managed Her Happiness her Love and Life were so lodged in her only Hopes her fair young Darling Henrietta that for her dear sake to advance her growing promising Glory she acted with a Zeal so vigorous as if she had taken a Resolution even to out-do the Pelican And as your Ladyships Loyal Ancestors those two memorable English Champions are that shining Original that Fame when she paints any thing that 's Heroick might for ever Copy from So they are no less blest in an Heiress whose Majestick Beauty to theirs and her own Eternal Monument might sit for a Britannia Your Royal Godfather might very frankly and largly promise Wonders in the Lady Henrietta's Name For 't was impossible there should be any common Branch from a Stock so perfectly Illustrious How then am I beyond all measure happy thus Gloriously protected methinks I look with Scorn upon the censorious World and can defie my Enemies with as great Assurance as if I had the Souls and Swords of those prodigious Heroes And 't is no small Pride to me when I consider I am the first of those many Writers to come that have attained the glorious Preferment of thus publickly writing my self Madam Your LADYSHIPS most dutiful and most humbly devoted Servant E.
