againe and ryding before the Coach paced backe to that place where before hee had left the two vnfortunately louing Shepheards now found conuocated togither on that reserued Theather of the most worst expectations an infinite number of all sorts of pitiful and vnpitying people some shedding teares of true sorrowe for the accident some weeping to see others weepe and some for fashion sake to be thought soft hearted though they neither apprehended the terror nor felt in themselues any sympathie of like misfortune all with one greedinesse like an eye-longing Auditory before the beginning of some hie state-promising Tragedie looking about and wishing to see what they made the world by their sorow beleeue they were loath to see Amongst this assemblie came the Queene Euronusa and the valiant Adunatus placing themselues in so conuenient standings that nothing eyther by worde or acte coulde passe without their iudgements or knowledges with no lesse expectance of what shoulde then insue then the rest though with farre contrarie determinations for in the one of them was a Pittie full of Helpe in the other a power able and therefore inwardly resolued to helpe whereas all other succour was but Pittie and God helpe the Pyning charitie of a miserable giuer But they had not stayed so long in this place that one could well say they had stayed any thing at all when there arriued there two Bishoppes and two graue Lordes of estate whose wisedomes had built them great honours in the Common-wealth of Laconia and with them eyther as a defensiue guarde to maintaine the vprightnesse of their Embassage or as a Bugge-beare to affright the manie headed Monster opinion euer then readie to bee deliuered from the wombe of common multitude the most noble and valiant reputed Phalantus armed in a blacke Armour curiously damaskt with interwinding wreathes of Cypres and Ewe his barbe vppon his horse all of blacke Abâ—osetta cut in broken hoopes vpon curled Cypresse his horse also all blacke and vpon his shield which was sutable to the sadnesse of his attyre there was imbosted a flying Pegasus yoaked to a Plough fastned in the earth vnder which was written a Greeke sentence which signified Compulsion not Desire and before these rode sixe Purseuants not foure Kings at Armes in the rich abilliments of Laconia after them a close Litter couered with blacke Veluet and supported by two blake horses in which the desolate Queene was borne to her murderous exilement after her roade all the chiefe estates of that Countrey and on eyther side as two guarding wings marched sundrie bandes of the moste expertest Souldiers in those partes conducted by the most principall Captaines of that Kingdome but when they were come into the middest of the prease of common people and that the Barke was towed into the Ocean and a Barge readie to receyue the Queene to beare her aboord the vnfurnished vessell there grew such a murmuring confusion and such a dis-vnion of thoughts amongst the multitude that like the iarring sound of many vntuned Instruments they not onely amazed the Nobilitie but also gaue vndoubted cause to feare some suddaine insurrection wherevppon one of hie place called Cosmos whose excellent vnderstanding was graced with a more excellent eloquence being lifted aloft vppon mens shoulders after solemne Proclaimations made by the sounde of Trumpets for a generall silence thus with a loud voice spake to all that were congregated togither in that presence You people of what kingdome soeuer you be which come to be beholders of this dayes deeds chiefly you O you Laconians to whome the memorie thereof shall remaine writte in the hearts of you and your successions for euer why are you carryed like a Deluge with euerie winde or affrighted like Babes with insufficient suppositions O call vp your wonted courages and looke into your owne calamities whilest I intende here first to denounce vnto you your losse which is vnspeakable your redresse which is vnrecouerable and the sacrifice for our euill thought most auaileable your losse it is the losse of the most excellent Amphialus a Prince in whom Nature Arte and wonder stroue to extoll the omnipotencie of their powers in the infinitenesse of his excellencies a man of such admirable vertue that his whole life was the worldes best Academie of deerest beloued goodnesse powerfull beyond controlment harde without rashnesse wise without austeritie and honourable in the vtmost lists of vnsufferable extremitie a Lion Lambe and a lambe-like Lion an vnuanquisht goodnesse yet a goodnesse thrall to what euer was good reputed Nay more your losse is the losse of your King the head and soueraigne of your now dismembred bodies the ornament of your liues the maintainer of your weales the straite vpholding columbe of your selues your wiues childrens safeties he that in his haÌ„d beares the calender of your peace registring yeres of playful Sabboths where before laboursome dayes of mourning by coÌ„tinuall garboyls were howerly numbred and increased whose sworde was your victorie whose victories were those glories which made you stand admired and adored your losse is the losse of the father of your Countrey that deare father that hath brought her vp to excell all her companions in beautie and perfections hee that hath made red his eyes with manly weeping to see her in her Cradle sicke weake and almost dying hee that hath brooded her vnder his winges fed her with his blood and lodged her in his bosome hee that hath made himselfe leane with watching least she should perish in her sleeping and he that hath slept with pittie when his errours stroue to awake him to take reuenge of her impieties This O Laconians is your losse the vertuous Amphialus your King your glorie your beatitude and your father will you then loose all this and yet reserue to your selues the name of liuing creatures will you cloath this dishonour with sufferance yet expect to be accounted vertuous O that it were possible or that drawing these wrongs in a Lethe of opinion Laconia might either holde her reputation or you your owne safeties But since the all surueying eye of Iustice will not so haue it be not as examinated carkasses but as eternall spirits to redresse these ruines of your fortunes Redresse said I O that there were such a worde left but to guild our remembrances O no Countrymen in that alone is the Superlatiue of our miseries reserued there is no redresse for our calamitie no Baulme for our wounde nor no repeale that can call backe our banished good fortunes Things hopefull to be amended may with modestie be lesse by much bewailed but desperate Vlcers incurable are both the mind and bodies continuall torment were there a time in any time left to beholde his home returning then might the expectation of that season giue some sweete taste to our afflictions but all is taken away all hope all goodnesse all past and to come good fortune for who hath banished him but himselfe and who will maintaine his

faithfull louers Hero and Leander adiudged present death to the aproach of any neighbour-bordering straunger and not forgetting the contract betwixt him and Thamastus that they should neuer be knowne where euer they were disioyned answered the Shepheards that how euer they might mistake his vtterance or his vtterance beguile the intent of his owne meaning it was so that hee was called Adunatus Prince of Iberia who from the beginning of his first knowledge had held in singular admiration the memorie of Thamastus Prince of Rhodes and Pyrophilus Prince of Macedon so that if hee had spoke of them it was but like a dreaming man whose braine from the superfluitie of his thoughts apprehends diuers remote and farre distant imaginations but for his own part at that instant hee said he was both carelesse and worthlesse and worthie to bee so vnworthily carelesse sith his fortune had lost him that rich blessing which in any but the selfe same thing could by no Fortune be againe restored and therewithall desired to knowe of them vpon what coast he was ship-wracked to the intent he might make the spediest search was possible to recouer the great losse hee had sustained to which the Shepheards replied that the Country in which he now was was called Laconia a Prouince in Peloponessus adioyning to the Frontiers of Arcadia which hauing beene long time gouerned all be with many insurrections and rebellious commotions by the renowned Basilius was after his discease by the power of his testament and as a man fit to curbe so vnruly a generation giuen to the noble and famous Amphyalus his sisters sonne a man so excellently seasoned with the salt of all vertuous vnderstanding that excepting the hope of Thamastus and Pyrophylus he stood in the eie of the world vnmatch-able and beyond comparison Pirophylus hearing them name Amphyalus whom he had euer respectfully reuerenced for the rariety of his perfections demaunded where he kept his Court and how long hee had hung his easefull armour by the walles to meditate more safely vpon the actions of other Nations They answered that his Court was abandoned desolate and forsaken of all in whoÌ„ griefe by the greatnes of his birth-right challeng'de not a fee-simple inheritance and for the place of his residence it had bene vnknowne to his subiects by the space of these three yeares at what time he departed thence with as great a burthen of insupportable discontentment as Atlas or Olimpus with their ioyntlesse shoulders could stand vnder the reason wherof being though many times suspitiously coniectured neuer sufficiently vnderstood or daringly entred into by any deuining or all-knowing iudgement was they said now at last but heauen knowes how long they wil last which calles such excellencie to the last account of life-lasting both knowne censured and to many iniudiciall eares malitiously deliuered to the disgrace of the worlds best beautie the destruction of a most famous queene euer till then wondred for a wonderfull vnblemisht reputation euen Hellen Queene of Corinth that harmles faire and faire harmles hurt creature a Lady of a mightie humblenes and an infinite mightines vertuously alluring because she was vertuous and that vertue married to an euer-adored beautie Of a maiestie fit for such greatnes and a gracefulnes answerable to a pure wisedome in truth such she was as such they should bee that haue so great perfections as such a celestiall Hellen This name of Hellen thunder-strooke Pirophylus and as if his passion had had a metamorphosing deity stone-like he stood without sence or motion till reason the ensigne of the soules holynes called backe his spirites to their vsuall attendance and hee earnestly besought the Shepheards aswel for the bettering of his knowledge to whose taste he euer coueted to present the nourishing milke of discourse as for a burning ardor he had to make his fortune the releif-master to a forlorne and destressed Ladies afflictioÌ„s to vnfold vnto him euen from accident to accideÌ„t al that had befalne to that most beautiful Queen of Corinth of whoÌ„ thogh in the coolnes of his intreaties he gaue no shew either of familiarity or acquaintaÌ„ce as indeed there was not hauing neuer in their liues seen one the other yet almost froÌ„ there childhoods they had married one to another a vertuous opinion of honorable estimation being by alyance of blood nearely conioyed togither but especially and aboue all for the neare nearnesse both of affinitie and loue twixt her and Melidora the only Goddesse to whose feet he laid al the sacrifices of his swords honor or dutie Carino who euer more and more gathered out of the rarenesse of his cariage and sweet disposure of his gestures a height or exhaltation of honour beyond the comprehensiue conceit of his vnderstanding both to be found dutifull to his cammandements and to beget a further continuance of so wished a presence after the Prince by the Sunnes aid which then shined hotly against the rockes had both dried his apparel and refresh'd his halfe drowned spirits thus set the key of his bermonious tongue in tune to tell the vtmost of his knowledges Although most excelleÌ„t Prince said he froÌ„ the clowdy darknesse of our little knowing remembrances can arise no expectfull matter of memorable coÌ„sequence the qualitie of our obscured estates depriuing vs the mean wherby Princes affairs should be vnfolded vnto so vnworthy eares as well because the weaknesse of our iudgements cannot looke into the causes of their fortunes as the insufficency of our counsels that can preuent no effect of fortune how aduerse soeuer proceeding froÌ„ those causes yet inasmuch as the worlds rumor is many times retained for an Oracle and the liberal tongue of Fame wil in the most respectlesse eares couer the worlds publique counsels I wil declare vnto your excellent wisdom what the inuenomed instrument of Enuyes tongue to all this whole nation most bytterly hath declared At such time as the noble Amphyalus who being loues true prisoner kept imprisoned the truest loue and the truest beauty that euer had power to commaund loue I meane the incomparable Princesses Pamela Phyloclea with the Macedonian Pyrocles at that time the Amazonian Zelmane had got the absolute vnderstanding of his mothers flint-hearted crueltie against those immortall Paragons of the worlde to whom he had euen slaued the subiection of his diuine soule sawe by the Caracters of their misfortunes the desperate euil wherunto the lothsomnes of his life growne vgly with the deformed disdain which had mangled his thoughts in peeces would headlong conuey the wretcednes of his hopes when he had with a selfe-killing hand made that sworde wherewith he had ouerthrowne so many Kings conquerours and invincible Gyants giue a deadly assault vnto the bosome of his hearts Cabanet seeking by vntimely death to ruinate that glorious worke of Nature wherein the excellencie of the first workmaster had showed the best power of his artes working This beautifull Queene of Corinth of whose dolours my braine

her a more precious and deare estimation And now for exchange both his reason iudgement and affections as the Actuaries or setters downe of his wils Cronicle presented vnto him all the perfections and vertues of the truely louing Hellen. Now he saw in her beautie which onely beautifying it selfe beautified all things that to it selfe was adioyned An eye that speaking with many tongues of delight spake onely with the tongue of true affection A brow wherein dwelling all the Maiesties of diuine greatnesse yet onely ruling with one which was the most humblest wisdome In briefe he now sawe that euer before had he not beene will-blind might haue better seene a Ladie full of annoynted royaltie royaltie exceeded in beautie beautie in vertue vertue in wisdom and wisdome in the excellent prouidence of her generall carriage in-so-much that as his wound healed his heart festred and as his life strengthned so the loue of that life weakned euen now feare and shame seaz'd tyrannously vppon him feare least his deserts shoulde call in account the punishment of his life and shame that he had no Apologie to defend him from the disdaine he feared Feare and Shame Deserts and Disdaine like a quadruple euill or a torment in foure parts rackt thus his mind almost to the height of desperatnes which no sooner perceiued by her whose want of pittie had framed al her thoughts in the pitifulst mould of mercie but instant reliefe vpon such worthy honorable coÌ„ditions as might sute with the seuerest respect of vertue gaue him that life of coÌ„tentment which euen angels theÌ„selues celebrat as the best thing beloÌ„ging to our creation Excellent worthy Sir for my countrey brought-vp tongue to ascribe to it self words matchable with the height of those incoÌ„parable ioies which in either of these two great ones was vniuersally bestowed through the blessed coÌ„iunction of their diuine match were arrogance and weaknesse because in their humours and passions they as farre go beyond the leuels of our capacities as in their estates honours and heroycall promotions onely let it suffice me to say Amphyalus at last with a worthie loue enioyed the nobly louing Hellen the triumph at whose coronation and wedding gained such a Superlatiue coÌ„mendations in the praises of al tongs that I know there is no worthy ear vtterly void of the knowledge the rather since al Grece is stil euer wil be in labor with the deliuerance of those wonders Immediatly after this triumphaÌ„t mariage Basilius died Amphyalus with his Q. came into this country of Laconia whose crown he chalenged possessed by his vncles testament but whether the nature of the country which euer haue bin ominous to the Princes therof or the star-crost destiny of her poor Lady to whoÌ„ eueÌ„ destenie was deholden for the patient indurance of her affliction were the nefarius bloodie conspirators of her vntimely and abortiue euill I know not but soothly then this there is nothing more credible that they had not continued togither many yeares ere the cinders of old discoÌ„tentment which whether stirred vp by his flatterers or inkindled by his spies those Emissaries canker worms of a peaceful continuance brake into a prodigious eruption or maine fire of displeasure in his before best-seeming to be coÌ„tented mind the particularities whereof cannot capitulate against because they be mysteries concealed from our knowledges only some two years ago when the blessednes of his presence made vs forget the miseries would follow his absence least fearing what most to be feared came poasting vpon vs vnknowne to any but those of his most priuatest couÌ„sailes he departed from this land disguised in an armor of vnknowne mettall which the skilfull Arabian his late Physition by a most vnreuealed Art had beene many yeares in making and for a remembrance giuen it to Amphyalus as a Iewell of more woorth then all the worlds treasure And vnder whose couert hee might compasse those conquests which should out-reach the height of possibilitie And doubtlesse if the Erraticall tongue of Fame haue not taken too great a taste of misreporting he hath since his departure effected wonders beyond the wonder of expectation But he had not been absent many Moneths ere the rupture and impostume of our euils broke like a windie Meteor through the bowels of our fortunes and ouer all the land after many night-still mutterings it was sounded with day-heard exclamations that Hellen was turned retrograde in her vertues become dissoyal to her husband broke her faith with her Loue dishonored marriage foyled coÌ„munitie slandered beauty was the efficient cause of the liuing death wherein Amâ—hyalus liued eternally exiled This generall defamatorie and as as I hope libellous report had so many thousand Proselytes or children of Error which with winged tongues gaue it a free way and a nimble passage that all-be it Bastard-like knewe no father but that Hydra or monster Multitude tongues accusing tongues Fame fame eares eares but no knowledge no true vnderstanding yet the loue of our King and such a King of such a diuine integritie meeting with our feare which for his absence discouered the least perill that any way could threaten our estate with hazard made Beliefe become a slaue to report and prouidence to wade no further then the limits of a restrained fancie whereupon the sorrowfull Queene whose omnipotent sorrow for her Lords losse might either witnesse her innocence or haue excused the addition of other woes since not any was more insupportable then that she carried being attached by Rumor was indited by Report condemned by Heresay and adiudged by We wil haue it so Feare lodging in the eyes of Wisedome and Affection in Iudgement It was bootlesse to excuse where millions did accuse and in vaine to wish
