Phillocles from getting Astella Cecro I do submit Sir and must applaud your purpose 't is a design I do confesse much above my reach and the first mischief I have come short in Exeuut ambo Pollidor seen in his Chamber Enter to him Phillocles and Ordella and Selindra the servants go off Phil You look chearfully to day Pollidor we may hope to see you abroad shortly Polli I believe I might venture now Sir though my Surgeons be not of my mind but Sir how do you find the good old Emperor dispos'd Phil I like not my Fathers smiles Pollidor his suddain starts into such extreams make me apprehend more danger in his kindnesse then his rage so that to prevent all further evils I have a purpose to repaire unto the Army and 't is Ordella's wish as well as mine that Selindra would trust her self with me there Polli That may secure you both but will not Selindra's honour suffer Ordel Now that Selindra's interest and his are become one I see no reason she should fear to go nor indeed any scruple why their Marriage may not be privatly and presently dispatch'd for while the businesse lingers thus they give hopes to such Endeavours as would divert it and do runne daily hazzards by staying here Phillo Ordella argues what my soul wishes but Selindra's looks do not consent to make me so soon happy Selin Sir my loooks do be-lye my heart if they shew ought that would delay a happinesse to you for I have none beyond yours But Sir above all other reasons Pollidor not being yet able to attend you if he be left behind will hardly escape Cecropius's fury Phil Most true Selindra he will be in danger I shall therefore attend his recovery without him I will not move nor will I put a thought in act without thy Councel Ordel You have both said well but in my judgment this is no fit time for such Complements when your lives are daily sought Polli If you be resolv'd to attend my recovery I shall propose a sudden fancy of mine to that purpose which may secure us Phill Speak it Pollidor Polli Suppose Selindra do ask the Princess leave to return to Cyprus and give out that she only expects her Fathers coming to convey her thither Sir you may court Selindra publikely while she stayes and she seem to neglect your love and put on a shew of kindnesse unto me as in gratitude for my hazzards in her redemption I will also counterfeit affection to Selindra and give out that I am of better quality then I seem This Sir if well manag'd will be ground enough to deceive their best Spies and for some time secure us all Phillocles I approve your thought Pollidor and if Selindra can undertake her part doubt not me I 'le put on such a seeming jealousie as shall puzzle the old Fox Cecropius himself Selindra I shall easily observe my directions and soon learn to be civil to a man I owe so much to Phillo Come Ordella while they practise love we will reconcile us to the Emperor and try to bring him on a present visit to Pollidor before this sit of his good nature leave him Ordel Selindra we must find you sitting in a more familiar way with Pollidor then ordinary conversation does allow Exeunt Phillocles and Ordella Selindra I shall obey you Madam Now they are gone we may enjoy our selves this happy design of yours will afford us many houres of freedome Pollidor My soul is joyed to look on thee Astella Selin And my happinesse too great to be exprest by words that you live makes this Earth a Paradice to me my heart can scarce make roome for Phillocles it is so full of Pollinesso Polli I am all thine Astella She embraces him Enter to them Tenedor Tecknor and others Tenedor Is it time Sir that you retir'd to rest you spend your spirits by so much discourse which does retard your cure Teck You should neglect no means Sir for your recovery lest by a long stay here some accident unlook'd for may make you known Tenedor I wonder Phillocles does not call to mind that he has seen you Pollidor He believes me dead as all others do but I shall observe the best rules for my recovery however Now Astella we have time to hear how you were conveyed from Belgrade pray make me know how you came hither Selin That same night that you departed to the Army and our first Embassadors went towards Greece to implore Lascares's aid against the Germanes I was by my Fathers own hand deliver'd unto Periander whom I was to call Father and by him was brought to Ciprus where the Plague then raging he transports me with his Family to this Town Pollidor How came you into the Court then Selin On the first Feast-day I went with Periander to the Temple that I might see the Emperor and the Printess Ordella where the Princess casting her Eyes on me found mine so fixed on her that I could not remove them but blush'd and still look'd on her by what power led I know not but she took a fancy to have me live with her which Periander durst shew no dislike to thus was I to my great joy call'd to Court where I became a Companion to the Princess within a short time Cleonel had affection for me which did not free me from old Cecropius dotage of which with Prince Phillocles his worthy love you shall know hereafter for I have now held you too long from your repose Pollidor Dearest Astella thy words are balsome to my wounds Exeunt Lords Pollidor and Selindra embrace Enter Emperor Phillocles Ordella Cecropius and Traine and see them Embracing Phillocles Your Majesty will not think this honour too much for Pollidor when you shall know he is of better quality then he seems ha what do I see They embrace and rise disturb'd Emp That which should teach thee to have nobler thoughts Philloces think on this surprize Phil How they are disturb'd Ordel They do it rarely well aside Emp Sir I am now come to excuse the imprisonment you had and to give you thanks for my sons life I shall now endeavour to recompence your merit rather then trouble you with words Poll Great Sir this honour with the many other favours I receiv'd do shame me to think that you allow me a merrit I cannot own but if the Gods do give me life my onely businesse shall be to seek occasions to serve you and yours Emp I shall contribute what I can to your health and will please my selfe with the expectation of great things from you While they talk the Emperor observes Phillocles courting Selindra and she neglecting him the Emperor observes Pollidor to be troubled at their Courtship and is pleased at it Poll Sir you oblige me beyond words to utter my sense of your favours Emp My purpose is to give you a kind welcome and a respect suitable to your worth and quality fair Maid I
dragge me did you not call him Pollnesso Titi. Yes Selin King Pollinesso Titi I think we did Selin That name is mine those wounds are mine then She offers to go to him but they hold her off Titi I wish they were Selin And so do I with all my heart pray let me go to him I can heal him with my tears I 'le suck his wounds well for I have heard wounds have been cur'd so Tene How comes his name in her mouth Teck 'T was not well done of us to name him as we did best to strangle her lest she discover us Titi. Shall I shoot her in the head though the Act be horrid 't is better she perish then all wee Teck Let us first hear what she will say to him we shall have time enough to kill her after Selin I pray who are all you Tene We are the hurt mans servants Lady pray who are you by whom we have receiv'd such dammage Selin If my Eyes deceive me not I may be happy but am yet the most miserable accurs'd Woman living Titi I think so too Aside Polli What Woman is that weeps so Tene 'T is she you rescued Sir Polli Did I rescue her losse of blood makes my Eyes dazzle and my fancy work even to a lightnesse that Face brings to my memory something that I have known why does she weep and why do you hold her so rudely Tenedor Pollidor and Selindra both look earnestly at each other Selin In charity to me Sir though they know it not for had they sooner let me know that Pollinesso liv'd my suddain joy had slain me Polli What is this she sayes Titi She is a Witch Sir I think Selin Does not my Brother know me yet have my sorrowes wrought such a change that Pollinesso should not know me Polli Oh! my Astella pardon my dull sight for I am very weak He faints Selin Would I had dyed rather then be rescued at this rate so joyful and so sad a day I have not seen before Teck He does but slumber Madam and 't is good he should do so Selin But slumber say you it looks so like death that I would dye to see it Tene Madam the Joy will out-live the sorrow of this day the Prince's hurt is without danger can your goodnesse pardon the rude words which my selfe and these Lords in our distraction speake Selin Alas my Lord I was not sensible of what you sayd my mind was so o're-loaden with my griefs and so intent on Pollinesso that I heard you not Now while my Brother takes this rest pray make me know how he escaped when my Father and Barzanes fell and why he has been thus long conceal'd Tene Madam in that sad day Pollinesso in vain attempting to save his Father was with my self and these you see here cast on a sandy bank from whence by good swimming we got to shoar and have been since disguised for fear of Lascares in several Princes Courts soliciting for aid to force the Grecians to quit their stolen possession of Hungary when in the midst of Pollinesso's preparation he hears that Phillocles had resign'd the Crown to be preserv'd for you This made us lay aside all further preparation for a Warre and thus disguis'd to passe this way to Belgrade It seems by destiny directed to your recsue Selin I shall find some fitter time for my own story 't were good that we removed my Brother he wa●kes how are you Sir has this repose refresht you Polli I am something better then I was Astella and shall soon be well now I may look on thee Selin And I most happy my brother you must give us leave to remove you to some place of rest and safety and you must be still conceal'd which these new wounds with your Perriwig will be disguise enough Polli I shall be directed by you Sel You must also a little counterfeit your voice lest you be remember'd by it for should Lascares know who were in his power all his hopes of Hungary would vanish untill he saw you dead I am call'd Selindra here Poll Who were those Robbers and how came you amongst them Selin 'T was Cleonel who did beguile me after he had sworn to carry me to Belgrade was conveying me to his own Castle Pol Was not Cecropins's son and will not his death be our ruine if we stay here Sel My interest in the Princess Ordella will secure you and his guilt was such a crime as can expect no justice from the Law to touch you besides the rescue you brought the Prince will merrit a reward but where is Phillocles where is the Prince we are all lost indeed if he be fallen I have been so much distracted that I mist him not till now Tecknor What Prince mean you Madam Selin Prince Phillocles 't was he my brother rescued runne look search about the Wood for heaven sake search unfortunate Astella and unworthy that could thus long forget him now Polliness● lives I have no hate to Phillocles methinks his vertues now look gloriously upon him but how shall I look on Ordella if her beloved brother have lost his life to save my honour Pol Was it Phillocles that I found fighting with Cleonel and his two men Selin 'T was he Polli 'T is strange I knew him not but I now remember as I came in he did persue the man that fled into the Wood let some looke that way Selindra I must glory in my wounds that have sav'd thee from false Cleonel and relieved Phillocles who my soul thirsts to see next thy self most dear to me Sel And mine trembles at his absence Enter Phillocles to them bloody and weary leaning on his Sword he calls before he is seen to Enter Phil Selindra Selindra is Selindra safe has she any mercy yet for Phillocles Selin She is safe and happy too now she sees you alive Sir my heart is so much disturb'd by my fears and joyes that I know not how to expresse she goes kindly to him my gratitude good Sir let these strangers dress your Wounds they have shewed much skill on this hurt man Phil My Wounds are but slight scratches when Selindra smiles my joyes are much more dangerous then my Wounds Selin My life Sir and my honour you have saved I must look on you with devotion pray be pleas'd to own these our Redeemers and give them some assurance of your Protection they fear Cleonel's death may by Cecropius's power with the Emperor prove their destruction Phill I will be their security Selindras Redeemers shall command my life of what Country are they Tene Hungarians Sir Men that since the late Warre have sought Fortunes in Forraign Lands and now on private Affaires were returning home Selindra brings Phillocles to Pollidor Phillo Unto you Sir I have a great Obligation such as my whole Life shall express my Zeale to serve you for by you Selindra lives Polli Sir I am rewarded much above my
equal Eyes and on your dangers with judicious thoughts you 'l see that Phillocles his love brings death and Pollidor methinks should not have gain'd an interest where Phillocles pretends Selin My Lord I must confesse what you have said is worthy my most serious thoughts but my Lord 't is not fit that I treat farther in this affaire until my Father doth return if you please to move him in it my obedience shall follow his will Cecro Of his consent I make no doubt my best Mistriss joyes and greatnesse do attend Selindra when she smiles on me She suffers him to kisse her Hand Selind But how can you secure your self and me from Phillocles will not his rage raise a revenge as ruinous as this you would have me fly from Cecro Good Madam let not so mean a thought remain with you I have Lascares Scepter in my hand and all the Frontier Towns in my Command the Souldiers too since Phillocles forsook them are become mine if my fair Mistress would by one kind look confirme my joyes it would encourage me to let her see at what a rate I value her Selin I blush to think that I have smil'd so much upon so short acquaintance Pray Heaven you have not a design to destroy me this way Cecro Can you think I will destroy my souls onely joy to remove all such fears I will now put my life into your hands Selin How my Lord your life Cecro You have heard Madam how the Hungarian Army marches towards Grecce it does so drawn in by me to my aid they come to assist me to get Selindra and to set Lascares Crown upon her head if she will deserve it we are interrupted now think on me and thou shalt wear this Imperial Crown Selindra within few howers Exit Cecropius Enter to her Phillocles and Ordella Phil What has caus'd thy clouded brow Selindra has that viper vext thee Selin He has frighted me and will anger us all if he be not prevented such horrid mischiefes he has in love to me reveal'd as I shake to think on Ordella To what tune runne they Selin To several tunes some to Love some to private blood-shed others to publick Warre and in summe to ruine all that 's good The Emperor will permit our marriage Sir and after poyson me that you may have leisure to gaine Astella but above all Cecropius treachery must be lookt to He has call'd in the Hungarian Army to make me his by force he talked of a Crown too that I should weare if I would comply with him and at that word you interrupted us good Sir make it a little more your businesse to prevent these Devils and their designes Phill There is danger in this worthy our best care Selindra I see our stay here will still occasion new designs on us Ordel And you too late I fear will find my counsel good why may not I have credit to protect Pollidor in your absence Phill I think you may but yet 't is not fit to hazzard such a friend to the fury of that Monster Cecropius besides Selindra is now engaged in honour to stay for him ●elin Truly Sir I think I am in honour bound not rashly to throw away a man that has preserv'd us both but Sir when you shall consider that his wounds do now permit him to walk abroad a few dayes more will get him strength to ride with us during which time I can secure all by dissembling a little kindnesse to Cecropius by which I shall also discover his treaty with the Hungarians Ordel Pollidor is much oblig'd to you Selindra I like well this noble humour in you Phill It does become her my dear Sister it shall be my care to look after Cecropius now and if necessity require I will remove him speedily I must leave you for some houres Ordella to attend my Father Farewel my bright Mistriss pray let your care continue unto Pollidor and let not fall your kindnesse to Cecropius he may confesse to you what no tortures can draw from him Exit Phillocles Selind It does concern me Sir Ord It does indeed Selindra thy gratitude to Pollidor looks hansomely methinks as he recovers health he growes comely he seems to me as if he were above the ordinary rank of men I dare say he has a Noble Soule Selin Madam you judge right did you converse as I do daily with him you should wonder at such worth methinks I see greatness in his looks and do observe that he holds in that lustre with more advantage then others shew it forth Ord He is sure some great Prince disguis'd Selindra and a happy man he is that has found one that can discover his conceal'd perfections to the life Enter Tenedor to Selindra Tened Madam my Master is now awake and begs the favour of a visit Exit Tenedor Selin I shall follow your Lordship when I have brought the Princess to her Chamber Ord Is he a Lord too Selindra ●elin Did I call him Lord Madam Ord Ask when you see him next go Selindra this Ceremony to me is needlesse I shall find the way alone 't is fitter that you attend your charge Pollidors wounds will not heal out of thy fight Selindra I cannot chuse but wonder what kind of entertainment you can find for so many houres with so great a stranger as Pollidor speaks aside Selin Sure she is jealous and I have been too free in praising him Pollidor and I do spend more houres discoursing of Ordella's beauties then of all other matters he admires your perfections Madam his other wounds are slight compar'd with those he received from your eyes for Ordel Hold Selindra I delight not in such saucy thoughts from Pollidor nor does it become you to heare much less to relate them unto me I do feare Selindra you hope by this invention to dazle my Eyes that I may not discover your own affection to this Pollidor take heed you fall not from that vertue you are valued for if you do deceive my trust or Phillocles his love you will be neither worthy his anger nor my pitty Selin Let me fall under the weight of both your angers when I deserve ill from either of you your jealousie afflicts me Madam She weeps Ordell I hear my Brother coming retire that he may not see thy tears and meet me in the Garden after supper then I will hear more of this and till then suspend my Jndgment of thee Exit Selindra Enter Phillocles Phil Why went Selindra weeping out and what troubles you my Dear Sister Ordel. I am not troubl●d now Sir pray how did you find my Father in what temper is he Phill Well Ordella all is safe yet but I cannot be satisfied untill you tell me why Selindra weeps your silence will beget doubts more troublesome then the knowledge can be Ordel 'T was nothing but an Argument that fell between us Phil That Argument Ordella if thou lov'st my peace that Argument Ordel
