James Hall Tyrconnel Nogent James Where have you been Hall I have wanted thee this three hours Hall 'T is a strange thing Sir you can do nothing without me I that was but a Cooks Son but t'other day am now become your chief Achitophel Where 's your Great Father Peters James Hang him Fool and Knave He has brought me to all this Thou art all Inspired and talk'st like an Angel Speak Blessed Oracle I know thou hast seen the Queen of Heaven in a Vision last night Hall I did so Great Sir and she shew'd me your Majesty just come into the World wrapt up in her own Smicket Tyrcon Father Father did she tell you that she would hide him in a Cloud in the day of Battel as Venus did Eneas Hall She did not say the same words but her shewing him to me in that Posture imply'd she would always protect him Tyr. The Heathen Oracles Father many times speak Truth but 't was wrapt up in such Ambiguous Lyes that Men could never find it out Nogent I wonder that such a Bon-Catholick as you should question the Truth of what Father Hall says You may as well call in doubt the Infallibility of our Holy Father the Pope James Let every one believe as he pleases You know 't is my declar'd Opinion But how shall a Man do to get so much into Venus's Favour as to be wrapt in a Cloud in the time of Battel I would fight then like a Dragon tho if the Cloud be not Cannon-proof I would not care a Fig for the Cloud neither Hall Sir 't is the same thing to be under the Protection of the Queen of Heaven as to be wrapt in Venus's Cloud For you shall be then encircled with Angels in such a manner that from whatever Point of the Compass the Bullets come they shall stand and catch them in their Hands as the Maids do Stool-balls in the Holy-days James Were I assur'd of this I would Fight as I said before like a Dragon Hall Nothing so sure Sir if your Majesty would but once be pleas'd to Fight James I 'll consider of it Hall In the mean time a word with your Majesty in private SCENE VI. K. James Hall the Priest Hall Sir we have been praying for your Majesties Success like so many Cats upon the Tiles We have and will make such a hideous Noise that certainly Heaven will answer our Requests rather then be troubled with us To tell you Truth Sir they wholly depend upon your Royal Word and Promises So that were it not for hopes their very Heart-strings would crack with the pains which they take Day and
Night to teize Heav'n with their Caterwawling for your sake James I know not that I ever gave them any cause since my Conversion to mistrust me For tho I ne're regarded the keeping my word with Hereticks I was always true to them Hall Half the Revenue of this Island will be hardly sufficient to reward them for the great care they take of your Affairs James I intend them no less for I mean if God prosper me to have but two sorts of Subjects in the World Church-men and Slaves the One to ride me the Other to be ridden by me Hall Some People tell me Sir that I smell very strong of an Archbishoprick And when I ask 'em what sort of smell that is they Laugh But then I tell 'em I know not how an Archbishoprick smells only that I serve a Good and Gracious Pious and Religious Master a dutiful Son of the Church a Promise-keeping Prince And then a great many Laugh agen but then I tell 'em let them Laugh that win Did I not tell 'em right an 't like your Majesty James Nothing can stemm thy Prophetick Spirit but my downfall Thou might'st have told 'em 't was not the smell of an Archbishoprick but of a Cardinals Hat with Tossels But heark thee me Hall art not thou Confessor to the Lady Lancarty Hall Yes an 't please your Majesty for want of a better James I dye for love of that Lady and you must use all the Charms of that Sacrament to bring her into my Embraces Else I tell thee I shall dye and then all your Fat is in the Fire Hall My dreaded Liege I am not of that Opinion that we must not do evil that good may come of it James By the way Hall she 's marry'd Hall That 's no Impediment at all Sir Aside Now I smell a Cardinals Hat indeed You are a Prince so Brave so Generous so Valiant so Renown'd so Vertuous so Pious so punctual an Observer of that Maxim do as you would be done to that 't is Pitty the World should not be stockt with your Royal Breed Upon the Word of a Priest Dread Sovereign the Sacrament of Confession shall lore Bonnet to all other Considerations but this The Sacrament of Confession shall serve you to the uttermost of its Power Who would be such an Infidel as not to Pimp for the Holy Church James Tell her Hall Tell her my Liege I 'll tell her 't is the Queen of Heavens Pleasure and she must do it James Were it nothing else this Complacency of thine will raise thee go and be speedy in the Affair Hall She Confesses to morrow James The sooner the better But be sure of Secrecy S'life if my Tyranness should know it I should never be able to protect the first Perriwig I appear'd before her in and perhaps another Black Eye to boot Hall I see the Rock and shall avoid it Sir SCENE VII Lausun La Hoquette Count de Leri Nugent Nugent To Lausun having a Book in his hand What my Lord Bookish this Morning I suppose there 's no body here that
