But all this hope prooued but a lyghtning ioye for Doctor Mos●…enigo dubble inraged partly for the check he receyued partly for the countenaunce the company gaue his aduersarie but chéefely for to behold a new Dye set vpon a stayned matter so sharpely refuted Bergetto as he had no delyght to reply nor his supporter desire to succor him Quod he Ouid dreamed of a diuinity in Beautie but neuer tasted other then a swéete venim to procéede from her He loued Iulia Augustus Daughter and enioyed her but with what fortune marry he was stript of his liuing and spoyled of his libertie for her sake Nigidius an auncient Romaine and in great fauour with the people for this folly tasted of Ouids fortune which was to dye in exile Samocratius was in youthe so prodigall of his Loue as in age hated of his fréendes he dyed in Prison with famine And as for frantick Petrarke I feare me Madonna Laura smyled more often in reading of his follyes then he himselfe did with the swéete recompences of his fancies All these were men learned wise and in their other actions for their grauitie were admyred and onely for their lightnesse in loue liue to this day defamed For your other authorities your owne remembraunce of theyr deathes shew a vengeaunce sufficient for the contempt of the Childrē But where you say Beautie Loue and Free choyse lade the Maried with such pleasures that they endure pouertie as a Fleabiting In déede want wyll so quicken them as the Husband wyll leape at a Cruste and the Wife trot for her Dinner But suppose the best thus married whose loues are indifferent with patience doo indure the afflictions of Fortune theyr agréement is no generall warrant The greater number of these Mariages are not solempnyzed through equaltye of loue but through inequaltye of lyuyng The coueitous Marchaunt with no more delight héereth the passing bell of his ritch neyghbour which promyseth hym the first loppe of his sonnes liuyng then the poore gentleman eyeth the able heyre with desyre to match him perhappes with his fayre proude Daughter Then as pleasaunt baytes baineth Fyshe as counterfet Calles beguileth Foules and as Crocadyles teares intrappeth Fooles to lyke destruction lures are throwne to lime this gallant freendly vsage shall inty●…e hym good wordes shall welcome hym curtesy shall chéere hym Beauty shall bewitch hym and fayre promises shall altogeather beguile hym Newe Uessels are apt for any licquor and young heades empty of experyence are seduced with easey subtiltyes to be shorte he shalbe betrothed by cunning hys promyse once past for that in delaye is daunger the Mariage must be in poste haste and the mislikyng at leasure but in most of these matches the sorrowe begynneth before the solemnitye of the Marriage endeth The father hearyng of the indiscression of his sonne galleth his harte with greefe the mother spoyleth her eyes wyth teares and the freend occupyeth his tounge in b●…moning of hys kynsemans follye There is yet a further sorrowe bytter to the father and vnbenefyciall to the sonne The father that thought to bestowe hys daughter wyth the Marryage money of hys sonne is forced to diminishe his inheritaunce for her aduauncement And by this meanes the ioye which begunne in the beautie of his Wife is like to end in the beggery of himselfe and since these vnsauerie effectes growe from the vertue of Beauties Diuinitie let Mounsier Bergetto burne in his Heresie But Doctor Mossenigo will holde himselfe happie neuer to be warmed by her fyre Bergetto had not a worde more to saye but angerly looked vpon his Sworde with a countenaunce that promised vengeance vpon the Doctors blasphemous tongue had he not béene stayed with a reuerent consideration of the company In the end because Maister Doctor should not be too proude of his conquest nor Bergetto ouermuch appalled with his defeate ꝙ Signior Fabritio Iudge of the controuersies in a single controuersie the argument of the one is to be allowed as truthe and the cauiling of the other to be reiected as error but for that this hath béene a double contention as in defence and reproofe bothe of Beautie and Free choise of Mariage Madona Isabella and I pronounce sentence with Bergetto in the behalfe of Beautie for Beautie is a blessing and if she worke euill effectes in some their naughtie disposition and not Beautie is to be blamed and with Doctor Mossenigo we like wise giue iudgement in reproofe of rashenesse in Mariage This iudgement pleased Quéene Aurelia and the whole company who were glad that they were thus forewarned of the inconueniences of Free choise in Loue which they a little fauoured but yet were more glad of the Triumphe of Beautie whom they all affectedly honoured and therefore quoth Quéene Aurelia good Wine néede no Iuie Bushe fyne Marchaundise are solde without a Signe and Beautie is sufficiently commended by her owne excellencie and therefore we wyll spare Bergettos ready seruice vntill oportunitie present further imployment But for y t your Tryumphe shall haue his full right we ●…cence you to tel some one Historie to confirme your reasōn The Doctor glad of this lybertie who althoughe he had receyued no Disgrace yet he repined that he had not the whole honour of the Disputation determyned in his Historie a litle more to nettle the fauourers of Beautie with which intent vpon Quéene Aurelias commaund●…mente he reported as followeth The Historie in reproofe of rash Mariages reported by Doctor Mossenigo BEsides Capo Verdo in times past the capitall Citie within the kingdome of Naples sometime dwelled a forward young Gentleman called Marco Malipiero the sonne and heire of Caualiero Antonio Malipiero in his youthe renowned for manie valiant seruices This young Gentleman in the pride of his youth became inamoured of a most fayre Gentlewoman named Felice the Daughter of Philippo Prouolo an auncient Gentleman by harde aduenture decayed But yet in dispight of fortunes iniurie who disabled him with many losses and thereby of small wealth to aduance his Daughter Felice her selfe was inriched with suche perfections of of nature that the friends lamented but could not blame the affection of young Malipiero which in verie déede grewe so great as it contemned the duetie of a childe and scorned the aduise of a Father Felice alone gouerned him and none but Felice he obeyed Prouolo intertayned Malipiero with the curtisie of a friende as the good partes he possessed as for the possibilitie of liuing he stoode in who striking the yron while it was whote secreatelie fianced Malipiero to his fayre Daughter The old Knight stormed at these newes and not withstanding this knowne contract if by any perswasions he could haue reuoked his sonnes consent 〈◊〉 would haue caused the Pope to haue dispensed with his conscience and to that effect her caused sundry of his friendes to deale with him in these affayres And among many an auncient Gentleman his Gouernour and
