- 0:06Speaker 1: induction enter the ghost of Andrea, and with him revenge.
- 0:12Speaker 2: When this eternal substance of my soul did live imprison'd
- 0:17Speaker 2: in my wanton flesh, each in their function on serving
- 0:22Speaker 2: other's need. I was a courtier in the Spanish court.
- 0:27Speaker 2: My name was Don Andrea. My descent, though not ignoble,
- 0:32Speaker 2: yet inferior far to gracious fortunes of my tender youth.
- 0:38Speaker 2: For dare in prime and pride of all my years.
- 0:42Speaker 2: By duteous service and deserving love. In secret, I possess'd
- 0:48Speaker 2: a worthy dame which height sweet bel Imperia by name.
- 0:54Speaker 2: But in the harvest of my summer joys, death's winter
- 1:00Speaker 2: knit the blossoms of my bliss, forcing divorce betwixt my
- 1:05Speaker 2: love and me. For in the late conflict with Portingal,
- 1:10Speaker 2: my valor drew me into danger's mouth, till life to
- 1:16Speaker 2: death made passage through my wounds. When I was slain,
- 1:21Speaker 2: my soul descended straight to pass the flowing stream of Achirn.
- 1:27Speaker 2: But churlish Charon only boatmen there said that my rights
- 1:33Speaker 2: of burial not perform'd, I might not sit amongst his passengers.
- 1:40Speaker 2: Ere Sul had slept three nights in thetis lap, and
- 1:45Speaker 2: sleek'd his smoking chariot in her flat by don Horatio
- 1:51Speaker 2: a night martial sun. My funerals and obsequies were done.
- 1:56Speaker 2: Then was the perryman of Hell content to pass me
- 2:01Speaker 2: over to the slimy strand that leads to fell avalness
- 2:06Speaker 2: ugly waves. There, pleasing Cerberus with honeyed speech, I pass'd
- 2:14Speaker 2: the perils of the foremost porch, not far from hence,
- 2:19Speaker 2: amidst ten thousand souls sat Minos, Iachus and Radamanth, to
- 2:26Speaker 2: whom no sooner can I make approach to crave a
- 2:30Speaker 2: passport for my wandering ghost. But Minos, in graven leaves
- 2:36Speaker 2: of lottery, drew forth the manner of my life and
- 2:41Speaker 2: death this night, quoth he both liv'd and died in love,
- 2:48Speaker 2: and for his love tried fortune of the wars, and
- 2:53Speaker 2: by wars fortune lost both love and life. Why, then,
- 3:00Speaker 2: said Iachus, convey him hence to walk with lovers in
- 3:04Speaker 2: our fields of love, and spend the course of everlasting
- 3:09Speaker 2: time under green myrtle trees and cypress shades. No, no,
- 3:17Speaker 2: said radamanth. It were not well with loving souls to
- 3:22Speaker 2: place a Marcialist. He died in war and must to
- 3:27Speaker 2: marsial fields, where wounded hector lives in lasting pain, and
- 3:33Speaker 2: Achilles mermidons to scour the plain. Then Minos, mildest censor
- 3:41Speaker 2: of the three, made this device to end the difference.
- 3:47Speaker 2: Send him, quoth he to our infernal King, to doom him,
- 3:52Speaker 2: as best seems his majesty. To this effect, my passport
- 3:57Speaker 2: strait was drawn in keeping on my way to Pluto's court,
- 4:03Speaker 2: through dreadful shades of ever glooming night, I saw more
- 4:08Speaker 2: sights than thousand tongues can tell, or pens can write,
- 4:14Speaker 2: or mortal hearts can think. Three ways there were that
- 4:20Speaker 2: on the right hand side was ready way under the
- 4:24Speaker 2: foresaid fields, where lovers live and bloody marcialists, but either
- 4:31Speaker 2: sort contain'd within his bounds. The left hand path, declining fearfully,
- 4:39Speaker 2: was ready downfall to the deepest hell, where bloody furies
- 4:45Speaker 2: shake their whips of steel, and poor ixion turns an
- 4:50Speaker 2: endless wheel, where usurers are chok'd with melting gold, and
- 4:56Speaker 2: wantons are embraced with ugly sin. Snakes and murderers groan
- 5:03Speaker 2: with never killing wounds, and perch at whites scalded in
- 5:09Speaker 2: boiling lead, and all foul sins with torments overwhelm'd. TwixT
- 5:17Speaker 2: these two ways, I trod the middle path, which brought
- 5:22Speaker 2: me to the fair elision green in midst, whereof there
- 5:27Speaker 2: stands a stately tower, the walls of brass, the gates
- 5:32Speaker 2: of Adamant. Here, finding Pluto with his Proserpine, I show'd
- 5:38Speaker 2: my passport, humbled on my knee, whereat fair Proserpine began
- 5:45Speaker 2: to smile and begged that only she might give my doom.
- 5:51Speaker 2: Pluto was pleas'd and sealed it with a kiss. Forthwith revenge,
- 5:58Speaker 2: she round did thee, and dear and bad thee lead
- 6:03Speaker 2: me through the gates of horn, where dreams have passage
- 6:08Speaker 2: in the silent night. No sooner had she spoke, but
- 6:14Speaker 2: we were here. I WoT not how in twinkling of an.
- 6:19Speaker 3: Eye, then know Andrea that thou art arrived, where thou
- 6:24Speaker 3: shalt see the author of thy death, Don Balthosar and
- 6:28Speaker 3: the Prince of Portingal, deprived of life by Plymperia. Here's
- 6:34Speaker 3: it be down to see the mystery and serve for chorus.
- 6:38Speaker 1: In this tragedy scene too, the court of Spain enter
- 6:46Speaker 1: Spanish King General Castile and Hieronimo.
- 6:51Speaker 4: Now say, Lord General, how fares our camp.
- 6:55Speaker 5: All well, my sovereign liege, except some few that are
- 6:58Speaker 5: deceased by fortune of the war.
- 7:01Speaker 4: But what portends thy cheerful countenance and posting to our presence.
- 7:05Speaker 4: Thus in haste speakman, hath fortune given us victory.
- 7:10Speaker 5: Victory my leegs, and that with little loss.
- 7:14Speaker 4: Our portugals will pay us tribute, then.
- 7:18Speaker 5: Tribute and wanted homage therewithal.
- 7:22Speaker 4: Then blessed be Heaven and guider of the heavens, from
- 7:26Speaker 4: whose fair influence such justice flows.
- 7:29Speaker 6: Oh mutum delecte deo t b milit at eight a
- 7:35Speaker 6: conjurati gurvato poplite gente succumbunt recti soro is victoria.
- 7:41Speaker 4: URIs thanks to my loving brother of Castile, but General,
- 7:47Speaker 4: unfolding brief discourse your former battle and your war's success,
- 7:51Speaker 4: that adding all the pleasure of thine news unto the
- 7:54Speaker 4: height of former happiness, with deeper age and greater dignity,
- 7:59Speaker 4: we may reward by blissful chivalry.
- 8:02Speaker 5: Where Spain and Portingal do jointly knit their frontiers, leaning
- 8:06Speaker 5: on each other's bound, there met our armies in their
- 8:10Speaker 5: proud array both furnished well, both full of hope and fear,
- 8:15Speaker 5: both menacing alike with daring shows, both vaunting sundry colors
- 8:20Speaker 5: of device, both cheerly sounding trumpet strums and fifes, both
- 8:25Speaker 5: raising dreadful clamors to the sky that valleys, hills and
- 8:29Speaker 5: rivers made rebound, and Heaven itself was frighted with the sound.
- 8:35Speaker 5: Our battles. Both were pitched in squadron form, each corner
- 8:39Speaker 5: strongly fenced with wings of shot. But ere we joined
- 8:43Speaker 5: and came to push of pike. I brought a squadron
- 8:47Speaker 5: of our readiest shot from out our rearward to begin
- 8:51Speaker 5: the fight. They brought another wing to encounter us. Meanwhile,
- 8:56Speaker 5: our ordinance played on either side, and captains strove to
- 9:01Speaker 5: have their valors tried. Don Pedro, their chief horseman's colonel, did,
- 9:07Speaker 5: with his cornet bravely make attempt to break the order
- 9:10Speaker 5: of our battle wrecks. But Don ROGGIERO worthy man of war,
- 9:17Speaker 5: marched forth against him with our musketeers, and stopped the
- 9:21Speaker 5: malice of his fell approach. While they maintain hot skirmish
- 9:26Speaker 5: to and fro, both battles join and fall to handy blows.
- 9:31Speaker 5: Their violent shot, resembling the ocean's rage. When roaring loud
- 9:36Speaker 5: and with a swelling tide, it beats upon the rampiers
- 9:41Speaker 5: of huge rocks and gapes to swallow neighbor bounding lands. Now,
- 9:47Speaker 5: while Bellona rageth here and there, thick storms of bullets
- 9:52Speaker 5: ran like winter's hail, and shivered lances dark the troubled
- 9:57Speaker 5: air perr pasescu spi de decouspis armas or nant armis
- 10:03Speaker 5: fia peditur keeviro on every side dropped captains to the ground,
- 10:09Speaker 5: and soldiers, some ill maim'd, some slain outright Here falls
- 10:15Speaker 5: a body sundered from his head. Their legs and arms
- 10:19Speaker 5: lie bleading on the grass, mingled with weapons and unboweled
- 10:24Speaker 5: steeds that scattering overspread the Purple plain. In all this
- 10:29Speaker 5: turmoil three long hours and more, the victory to neither
- 10:34Speaker 5: part inclin'd till dawn. Andrea, with his brave lancers in
- 10:40Speaker 5: their main battle, made so great a breach that half
- 10:44Speaker 5: dismayed the multitude retir'd, but Balthusar, the portingal's young prince,
- 10:49Speaker 5: brought rescue and encouraged them to stay here. Hence the
- 10:53Speaker 5: fight was eagerly renewed, and in that conflict was Andrea slain.
- 11:00Speaker 5: Brave men at arms, but weak'd to balth the car Yet,
- 11:04Speaker 5: while the Prince, insulting over him, breath'd out proud vaunts,
- 11:09Speaker 5: sounding to our reproach. Friendship, and hardy valor join'd in
- 11:14Speaker 5: one prick'd forth Horatio, our knight martial son, to challenge
- 11:20Speaker 5: forth that prince in single fight. Not long between these twain,
- 11:24Speaker 5: the fight endur'd, but straight the Prince was beaten from
- 11:28Speaker 5: his horse and forced to yield him prisoner to his foe.
- 11:34Speaker 5: When he was taken all the rest they fled, and
- 11:37Speaker 5: our carbines pursued them to the death, till Phoebus waving
- 11:43Speaker 5: to the western deep, our trumpeters were charg'd to sound retreat.
- 11:48Speaker 4: Thanks, good Lord General, for these good news, and for
- 11:52Speaker 4: some argument of more to come, take this and wear
- 11:56Speaker 4: it for thy Sovereign's sake.
- 11:58Speaker 1: Gives him his chain.
- 12:00Speaker 4: But tell me now hast thou confirmed a peace?
- 12:04Speaker 5: No peace, my liege, but peace conditional that if homage
- 12:09Speaker 5: tribute be well paid, the fury of your forces will
- 12:13Speaker 5: be stayed. And to this peace their viceroy hath.
- 12:17Speaker 1: Subscribed, gives the king a paper.
- 12:20Speaker 5: And made a solemn vow that during life his tribute
- 12:24Speaker 5: shall be truly paid.
- 12:26Speaker 4: To spain these words, these deeds become thy person well.
- 12:32Speaker 4: But now Knight Marshal, frolic with thy king fortist thy
- 12:36Speaker 4: son that wins this bottle's prize.
- 12:39Speaker 7: Long may he live to serve my sovereign liege, and
- 12:42Speaker 7: soon decay.
- 12:43Speaker 4: Must he serve my liege, nor thou, nor he shall
- 12:46Speaker 4: die without reward?
- 12:48Speaker 1: Attack it afar off?
- 12:50Speaker 4: What means the warning of this trumpet sound?
- 12:53Speaker 5: This tells me that your Grace's men of war, such
- 12:56Speaker 5: as war's fortune, hath rescued from death, come marching on
- 13:00Speaker 5: towards your royal seat, to show themselves before your majesty.
- 13:05Speaker 5: For so I gave in charge at my depart whereby
- 13:09Speaker 5: by demonstration shall appear that all except three hundred or
- 13:13Speaker 5: few more are safe returned and by their foes enriched.
- 13:19Speaker 1: The army enters Balthasar, between Lorenzo and Horatio, captive.
- 13:25Speaker 4: A gladsome sight I longed to see them.
- 13:28Speaker 1: Here they enter and pass by.
- 13:31Speaker 4: Was that the warlike Prince of Portugal, that by our
- 13:34Speaker 4: nephew was in triumphant?
- 13:36Speaker 5: It was my liege, the Prince of Puddingal.
- 13:40Speaker 4: But what was he that on the other side held
- 13:42Speaker 4: him by the arm as partner of the price.
- 13:46Speaker 7: That was my son, my gracious sovereign of form, though
- 13:49Speaker 7: from his tender infancy my loving thoughts did never hope.
- 13:52Speaker 7: But well, he never pleased his father's eyes till now,
- 13:56Speaker 7: nor filled my heart with overclowing joys.
- 14:00Speaker 4: Them march once more about these walls that stay in them,
- 14:03Speaker 4: we may confer and talk with our brave prisoner and
- 14:07Speaker 4: his double guard, Uronimo. It greatly pleases that in our
- 14:12Speaker 4: victory thou have a share by virtue of thy worthy sons.
- 14:16Speaker 4: Exploit enter again, bring hither the young Prince of Portingal
- 14:21Speaker 4: the rest much on. But ere they be dismissed, we
- 14:24Speaker 4: will bestow on every soldier tudor cuts, and on every
- 14:27Speaker 4: leader ten that they may know our lodgest welcomes them acient.
- 14:32Speaker 1: All but Balthazar, Lorenzo and Horatio welcome.
- 14:37Speaker 4: Don Baltasar, welcome, nephew, and thou Horatio, thou art welcome
- 14:42Speaker 4: to young Prince. Although thy father's heart misdeeds deserve but
- 14:47Speaker 4: evil measure at our hands. Yet shalt thou know that
- 14:50Speaker 4: Spain is honorable.
- 14:53Speaker 8: The trespass that my father made in peace is now
- 14:56Speaker 8: controlled by fortune of the wars and cards. Once dealt it,
- 15:00Speaker 8: boots not ask why so his men are slain, a
- 15:04Speaker 8: weakening to his realm. His cothers seized a blot unto
- 15:08Speaker 8: his name, his son distressed a coursive to his heart.
- 15:12Speaker 8: These punishments may clear his late offense.
- 15:16Speaker 4: Ay, Baltasar, if you observe this truce, our peace will
- 15:20Speaker 4: grow the stronger for these wars. Meanwhile, live thou, though
- 15:25Speaker 4: not in liberty, yet free from bearing any servile joke.
- 15:30Speaker 4: For in our hearing thy deserts were great, and in
- 15:33Speaker 4: our sight thyself art gracious.
- 15:35Speaker 8: And I shall study to deserve this grace.
- 15:38Speaker 4: But tell me, for their holding makes me doubt to
- 15:41Speaker 4: which of these twain art thou prisoner?
- 15:44Speaker 9: To me, my liege, to me, my sovereign.
- 15:48Speaker 10: This hand first took his courser by the reins.
- 15:51Speaker 9: But first my lance did put him from his horse.
- 15:55Speaker 10: I seized his weapon and enjoyed it first, But first.
- 15:58Speaker 9: I forced him lay his weapons down.
- 16:01Speaker 4: Let go his arm upon our privilege.
- 16:05Speaker 1: They let him go.
- 16:06Speaker 4: Say were the prince to whether it didst thou yield
- 16:10Speaker 4: to him?
- 16:11Speaker 8: In courtesy to this perforce? He spake me fair this
- 16:16Speaker 8: other gave me strokes. He promised life, this other threatened death.
- 16:22Speaker 8: He won my love, this other conquered me and truth
- 16:28Speaker 8: to say, I yield myself to both.
- 16:31Speaker 7: But that I know your grace is just and wise,
- 16:35Speaker 7: and might seem partial in this difference, enforced by nature
- 16:38Speaker 7: and by law of arms. My tongue should plead for
- 16:42Speaker 7: young Horatio's right. He hunted well, that was a lion's death,
- 16:47Speaker 7: not he that, in a garment wore his skin so
- 16:50Speaker 7: hers may pull dead lions by the beard pontent.
- 16:54Speaker 4: De Marshal, thou shalt have no wrong, and for thy
- 16:57Speaker 4: sake thy son shall want no right. Will both abide
- 17:01Speaker 4: the censure of my doom?
- 17:03Speaker 10: I crave no better than your grace awards no I.
- 17:07Speaker 4: Although I set beside my right, then by my judgment,
- 17:11Speaker 4: thus your strife shall end. You both deserve, and both
- 17:16Speaker 4: shall have reward. Nephew, thou took'st his weapon and his horse.
- 17:21Speaker 4: His weapons and his horse are thy reward. Horatio, Thou
- 17:26Speaker 4: didst force him first to yield his ransom. Therefore is
- 17:30Speaker 4: thy valor's fee appoint to some as you shall both agree.
- 17:35Speaker 4: But Nephew, thou shalt have the prince in guard for
- 17:38Speaker 4: thine estate. Best fitteth such a guest. Horatious house were
- 17:43Speaker 4: small for all his train. Yet in regard thy substance
- 17:47Speaker 4: passeth his, and that just Gerdon may befall desert to him.
- 17:53Speaker 4: We yield the armor of the prince. How like stone
- 17:57Speaker 4: balter sar of this device.
- 17:59Speaker 8: Right, oh, my liege, if this proviso were that Don
- 18:03Speaker 8: Horatio bear us company whom I admire and love for chivalry.
- 18:07Speaker 4: Horacio, leave him not that loves the soul. Now let
- 18:12Speaker 4: us ends to see our soldiers, paint and feast our
- 18:15Speaker 4: prisoner as our friendly guest.
- 18:18Speaker 1: Accient scene three the Court of Portugal. Enter Viceroy Alexandro Filippo.
- 18:30Speaker 11: Is our ambassador dispatched for Spain.
- 18:33Speaker 12: Two days my league have passed since his depart.
- 18:37Speaker 11: And tribute payment gone along with him.
- 18:39Speaker 12: Aye, my good lord.
- 18:41Speaker 11: Then rest we here a while in our unrest, and
- 18:43Speaker 11: feed our sorrows with some inward size. The deepest cares
- 18:48Speaker 11: break never into tears, and where forced its eye in
- 18:51Speaker 11: a regal throne, this better fits a retis.
- 18:54Speaker 1: Endless moan falls to the ground.
- 18:57Speaker 11: Yet this is higher than my fortune reach, and therefore
- 19:01Speaker 11: better than my state deserves.
- 19:03Speaker 1: Aye.
- 19:04Speaker 11: Aye, this earth image of melancholy seeks him whom fate
- 19:08Speaker 11: are judged to misery. Here let me lie now, am
- 19:12Speaker 11: I at my lowest coeres tin terror non abe uncadet
- 19:18Speaker 11: in me? Can sum sit virea's fortune and nosendo nil
- 19:23Speaker 11: superessu jam possit or be some magics? Fortune may bereave
- 19:29Speaker 11: me of my crown. Here take it now? Let fortune
- 19:33Speaker 11: do her worst. She will not rob me of this
- 19:36Speaker 11: sable weed. Oh no, she envies non but pleasant things.
- 19:41Speaker 11: Such is the folly of despiteful chance. Fortune is blind
- 19:46Speaker 11: and sees not my deserts.
- 19:48Speaker 12: So is she death?
- 19:49Speaker 11: And hears not my laments? And could she hear? Yet?
- 19:53Speaker 11: Is she wilful? Mad? And therefore will not pity my distress?
- 20:00Speaker 11: Suppose she could be to me?
- 20:01Speaker 4: What then?
- 20:02Speaker 11: What help can be expected in her hands? Whose foot
- 20:05Speaker 11: is standing on a rolling stone, and mine more mutable
- 20:09Speaker 11: than fickle winds? Why wail I? Then? Where's hope of
- 20:13Speaker 11: no redress?
- 20:15Speaker 12: Oh?
- 20:15Speaker 11: Yes, complaining makes my grief seem less. My late ambition
- 20:20Speaker 11: have disdained my faith. My breach of faith occasion, bloody wars,
- 20:25Speaker 11: Those bloody wars have spent my treasure and with my
- 20:29Speaker 11: treasure my people's blood, and with their blood my joy
- 20:33Speaker 11: and best beloved, my best beloved, my sweet and only son. Oh,
- 20:39Speaker 11: wherefore went I not to warm myself? The cause was mine.
- 20:43Speaker 11: I might have died, for both my years were mellow,
- 20:48Speaker 11: his foot young and green. My death were natural, but
- 20:52Speaker 11: his was forced.
- 20:54Speaker 12: No doubt, my liege. But still the prince survives, survives.
- 20:58Speaker 12: I where in Spain a prisoner by mischance of war.
- 21:03Speaker 11: Then they have slain him for his father's fault.
- 21:06Speaker 12: That were breached a common law of arms.
- 21:09Speaker 11: They reckon all laws that meditate revenge.
- 21:12Speaker 12: His ransom's worth will stay from foul revenge.
- 21:15Speaker 11: No, if he lived, the news will soon be here.
- 21:19Speaker 12: Nay, evil news fly faster still than good.
- 21:22Speaker 11: Tell me no more of news, for he is dead.
- 21:26Speaker 13: My soiregn.
- 21:27Speaker 14: Pardon the offer of ill news, and I'll be ray
- 21:29Speaker 14: the fortune of thy son.
- 21:31Speaker 11: Speak on. I'll girden thee whate'er it be. Myeer is
- 21:35Speaker 11: ready to receive ill news. My heart grown hard against
- 21:39Speaker 11: mischief's battery. Stand up, I say, and tell thy tail
- 21:44Speaker 11: at large.
- 21:45Speaker 14: Then hear that truth which these mine eyes have seen.
- 21:48Speaker 14: When both the army were bella joined don Balthazar, amidst
- 21:52Speaker 14: the thickest troops to win Redown, did wondrous feats of
- 21:54Speaker 14: arms amongst the rest.
- 21:56Speaker 10: I saw him.
- 21:57Speaker 14: Hand to hand in single fight with their lord General.
- 22:00Speaker 14: Tell Alexandro to hear counterfeits under the color of a
- 22:02Speaker 14: duteous friend. Discharged his pistol at the Prince's back, and
- 22:05Speaker 14: thought he would have slain their general. But therewithal don
- 22:09Speaker 14: Balthazar fell down, And when he fell that we began
- 22:12Speaker 14: to fly. But had he lived the day had sure
- 22:15Speaker 14: been ours?
- 22:16Speaker 12: Ooh wicked forgery, Oh, traitorous miscreant.
- 22:20Speaker 11: Although thy peace, But no villipauld say where them became
- 22:24Speaker 11: the carcass of my son?
- 22:26Speaker 14: I saw them drag it to the Spanish tents.
- 22:29Speaker 11: Ay, Ay, my knightly dreams have told me this, Thou false, unkind, unthankful,
- 22:35Speaker 11: traitorous beast. Where had a Balthazar offended thee that thou
- 22:40Speaker 11: shoulst thus betray him to his foes? What's spain? Gold
- 22:44Speaker 11: that blears sold thine eyes? That thou couldt see no
- 22:47Speaker 11: part of our deserts. Perchance, because thou art Turker's lord,
- 22:52Speaker 11: thou hast some hope to word this diadem if first
- 22:56Speaker 11: my son and then myself was slain. But thy ambitious
- 23:00Speaker 11: shall break thy neck eye. This was it that made
- 23:03Speaker 11: THEE spills blood.
- 23:05Speaker 1: Takes the crown and puts it on again.
- 23:08Speaker 11: But now I'll wear it till thy blood be spelt well.
- 23:11Speaker 12: See dread sovereign to hear me.
- 23:13Speaker 11: Speak away with him? This sight is second hell. Keep
- 23:18Speaker 11: him till we determine of his death. If balthlessar be dead,
- 23:22Speaker 11: he shall not live. Villippo follow us for thy reward.
- 23:27Speaker 1: Except viceroy.
- 23:29Speaker 14: That's have I with an envious forged tale, deceive the
- 23:32Speaker 14: king betrayed mine enemy, and hope for gerridon of my villainy.
- 23:36Speaker 1: Exit Scene four, Enter Horatio and bel imperia sinew Horatio.
- 23:46Speaker 15: This is the place and hour wherein I must entreat
- 23:49Speaker 15: THEE to relate the circumstance of Don Andrea's death, who
- 23:53Speaker 15: living was my Garland's sweetest flower, and in his death
- 23:58Speaker 15: hath buried my delight.
- 24:00Speaker 9: For love of him and service to yourself, I neill
- 24:04Speaker 9: refused this heavy, doleful charge, yet tears and sighs, I
- 24:09Speaker 9: fair will hinder me when both our armies were enjoined
- 24:14Speaker 9: in fight your word the chuvalier. That's the thickest for
- 24:18Speaker 9: glorious cause, still aiming at the fairest, was at last
- 24:22Speaker 9: by young Don Balthazar, and counted hand to hand. The
- 24:26Speaker 9: fight was long. Their hearts were great, their clamors menacing,
- 24:31Speaker 9: their strength, alike, their strokes both dangerous but rough. Nemesis,
- 24:38Speaker 9: that wicked power, envying at Andrea's praise and worth, cut
- 24:42Speaker 9: short his life. To end his praise and worth, she
- 24:47Speaker 9: she herself disguised in armor's mask, as Pallace was before.
- 24:52Speaker 9: Proud Pergamus brought in a fresh supply of halberdis, which
- 24:57Speaker 9: paunched his horse and dinged him to the ground. Then
- 25:01Speaker 9: young Don Balthasar, with ruthless rage, taking advantage of his
- 25:05Speaker 9: foes distress, did finish what his Halberdius begun and left
- 25:10Speaker 9: not till Andrea's life was done. Then, though too late,
- 25:15Speaker 9: incensed with just remorse, I with my band set forth
- 25:19Speaker 9: against the Prince and brought him prisoner from miss Halbertius.
- 25:23Speaker 15: Would thou hast slain him? That so slew my love?
- 25:26Speaker 15: But then was John Andreas Carcas lost?
- 25:30Speaker 9: No, that was it for which I chiefly strove nor
- 25:34Speaker 9: step thy back till A recovered him. I took him
- 25:37Speaker 9: up and wound him in mine arms, and wielding him
- 25:41Speaker 9: unto my private tent. There laid him down and deoed
- 25:46Speaker 9: him with my tears, and sighed and sorrowed as became
- 25:51Speaker 9: a friend. But neither friendly sorrow sighs nor tears coween
- 25:56Speaker 9: pale death from his usurped right. Yet this I did,
- 26:01Speaker 9: unless I could not do. I saw him honored with
- 26:04Speaker 9: you funeral the scarf I plucked from off his lifeless arm,
- 26:09Speaker 9: and wear it in remembrance of my friend.
- 26:13Speaker 15: I know the scarf would he had kept it still,
- 26:17Speaker 15: for had he lived, he would have kept it still
- 26:20Speaker 15: and warn it for his bel Imperia's sake, for twas
- 26:24Speaker 15: my favor at his last apart. But now where thou it,
- 26:28Speaker 15: both for him and me, For after him thou hast
- 26:33Speaker 15: deserved it best, but for thy kindness in his life
- 26:37Speaker 15: and death. Be sure, while bel Imperia's life endures, she
- 26:42Speaker 15: will be don Horatio's thankful friend.
- 26:47Speaker 9: And Madame don Horatio will not slack humbly to serve
- 26:51Speaker 9: fair bel Imperia. But now, if your good likings stand
- 26:56Speaker 9: there too, I'll crave your pardon to go seek the Prince.
- 27:00Speaker 9: For so the Duke your father gave me charge.
- 27:03Speaker 15: I go, Horatio, leave me here alone, for solitude best
- 27:08Speaker 15: fits my cheerless.
- 27:10Speaker 1: Mood except Horatio.
- 27:12Speaker 15: Yet what avails to wail Andrea's death?
- 27:15Speaker 9: From?
- 27:16Speaker 15: Whence? Horatio proves my second love? Had he not loved
- 27:20Speaker 15: Andrea as he did, he could not sit in bel
- 27:23Speaker 15: imperious thoughts. But how can love find harbor in my
- 27:27Speaker 15: breast till I avenge the death of my beloved? Yes,
- 27:32Speaker 15: second love shall further my revenge. I'll love Horatio, my
- 27:36Speaker 15: Andrea's friend, the more to spite the prince that wrought
- 27:40Speaker 15: his end. And where don Balthazar that slew my love
- 27:45Speaker 15: himself now pleads for favor at my hands, he shall,
- 27:49Speaker 15: in rigor of my just disdain, reap long repentance for
- 27:54Speaker 15: his murderous deed. For what was it else but murderous cowardice,
- 27:59Speaker 15: so many to oppress one valiant knight without respect of
- 28:03Speaker 15: honor in the fight. And here he comes that murdered
- 28:07Speaker 15: my delight.
- 28:08Speaker 1: Enter Lorenzo and Balthazar, Sister?
- 28:12Speaker 10: What means this melancholy walk?
- 28:14Speaker 15: That for a while I wish no company?
- 28:17Speaker 10: But here the prince has come to visit you, that argues.
- 28:21Speaker 15: That he lives in liberty.
- 28:23Speaker 8: No, madam, but in pleasing servitude.
- 28:26Speaker 15: Your prison then be like is your conceit?
- 28:30Speaker 8: Aye? By conceit my freedom is enthralled.
- 28:33Speaker 15: They with conceit enlarge yourself again.
- 28:36Speaker 8: What if conceit have laid my heart to gage.
- 28:39Speaker 15: Pay that you borrowed, and recover it.
- 28:43Speaker 8: I die if it return from whence it lies.
- 28:46Speaker 15: A heartless man? And live a miracle?
- 28:50Speaker 8: Aye, lady, Love can work such miracles.
- 28:53Speaker 10: Tush, tush, my lord. Let go these ambugas, and in
- 28:57Speaker 10: plain terms, acquaint her with your love.
- 28:59Speaker 15: What boots complaint when there's no remedy?
- 29:03Speaker 8: Yes to your gracious self? Must I complain? In whose
- 29:07Speaker 8: fair answer lies my remedy? On whose perfection all my
- 29:12Speaker 8: thoughts attend on whose aspect mine eyes find beauty's bower,
- 29:17Speaker 8: in whose translucent breast my heart is lodged.
- 29:21Speaker 15: Alas, my lord, these are but words, of course, and
- 29:24Speaker 15: but device to drive me from this place.
- 29:28Speaker 1: She in going in lets fall her glove, which Horatio
- 29:33Speaker 1: coming out takes.
- 29:34Speaker 15: Up, Madam, your glove, Thanks good, Horatio, take it for
- 29:39Speaker 15: thy pains?
- 29:41Speaker 8: Signor Horatio stooped In happy time, I.
- 29:44Speaker 9: Reap more grace than I deserved or hoped.
- 29:47Speaker 10: My Lord, be not dismayed for what is past. You
- 29:50Speaker 10: know that women after humorous these clouds will overblow with
- 29:54Speaker 10: little wind. Let me alone, I'll scatter them myself. Meanwhile,
- 30:00Speaker 10: let us devise to spend the time in some delightful
- 30:03Speaker 10: sports and reveling.
- 30:05Speaker 9: The King, my lords is coining. Hither straight to feast
- 30:09Speaker 9: the portingal Ambassador. Things were in redness before I came.
- 30:13Speaker 8: Then here it fits us to attend the king, to
- 30:16Speaker 8: welcome hither our ambassador, and learn my father and my
- 30:19Speaker 8: country's health.
- 30:22Speaker 1: Scene five, enter the banquet, trumpets the King and ambassador.
- 30:29Speaker 4: See Lord, Ambassador, how Spain entreats their prisoner Balthasar, thy
- 30:34Speaker 4: Viceroy's son. We pleasure more in kindness than in wars.
- 30:39Speaker 16: Sadzac, King and portingal laments. Supposing that Don Balthasar is slain.
- 30:44Speaker 8: So am I slain by beauty's tyranny. You see, my Lord,
- 30:49Speaker 8: how Balthasar is slain. I frolic with the Duke of
- 30:52Speaker 8: Castile's son, wrapped every hour in pleasures of the court,
- 30:56Speaker 8: and graced with favors of his majesty.
- 30:59Speaker 4: Put off your reading. Still, our feast be done. Now
- 31:02Speaker 4: come and sit with us and taste.
- 31:04Speaker 1: Our chair set to the banquet.
- 31:07Speaker 4: Sit down, young prince, you are our second guest. Brother,
- 31:12Speaker 4: sit down, and nephew take your place. Senora Ratio, wait
- 31:17Speaker 4: thou upon our cup, for well them has deserved to
- 31:20Speaker 4: be honored. Now, lordings fall two. Spain is Portugle and
- 31:25Speaker 4: Portugal is Spain. We both are friends, tribute spade, and
- 31:30Speaker 4: we enjoy our right. But where is old Hieronimo, our marshal?
- 31:35Speaker 4: He promised us, in honor of our guests, to graze
- 31:38Speaker 4: our banquet with some pompous jest.
- 31:41Speaker 1: Enter Hieronimo with a drum, three knights each his scutcheon.
- 31:46Speaker 1: Then he fetches three kings. They take their crowns, and
- 31:49Speaker 1: them captive Hieronimo.
- 31:51Speaker 4: This mask contains mine eye, although I sound not well.
- 31:55Speaker 7: The mystery the first armed knight that hung his scutcheon up.
- 32:00Speaker 1: He takes the scutchen and gives it to the king.
- 32:03Speaker 7: Was English Robert, Earl of Gloucester, who, when King Stephens
- 32:07Speaker 7: Way in Albion arrived with five and twenty thousand men
- 32:11Speaker 7: in portanall and by successive war enforced the king. Then
- 32:15Speaker 7: but a saracen to bear the yoke of the English monarchy.
- 32:19Speaker 4: My Lord of Portugal. By this you see that which
- 32:22Speaker 4: may comfort both your king and you, and make your
- 32:25Speaker 4: late discomfort seem the less. But say he, Ronimo, what
- 32:30Speaker 4: was the next?
- 32:31Speaker 7: The second knight that hung his scutching.
- 32:33Speaker 1: Up he doth as he did before, was.
- 32:36Speaker 7: Edmund, Earl of Kent in Albion. When English Richard wore
- 32:39Speaker 7: the diadem, he came likewise and raised Lisbon walls and
- 32:43Speaker 7: took the King of portingall in fight, for which and
- 32:47Speaker 7: others such like service done. He after was created Duke
- 32:50Speaker 7: of York.
- 32:51Speaker 4: This is another special argument that Portugal may deign to
- 32:55Speaker 4: bear your joke when it by little England hath been.
- 33:01Speaker 4: But now ieronimo, what were the last?
- 33:04Speaker 7: The third and last, not least in our account?
- 33:08Speaker 1: Doing as before was as the.
- 33:10Speaker 7: Rest a valiant englishmen, Brave John of Gaund, the Duke
- 33:14Speaker 7: of Lancaster, as by his scutcheon Plinny may appear, he
- 33:18Speaker 7: with a puercant army, came to Spain and took our
- 33:21Speaker 7: King of Castile prisoner.
- 33:23Speaker 16: This is an argument for our viceroy that Spain may
- 33:26Speaker 16: not insult for her success, since English warriors likewise conquered
- 33:30Speaker 16: Spain and made them bow their knees to albion Eronimore.
- 33:34Speaker 4: I drink to thee for this device, which hath pleased
- 33:37Speaker 4: both the ambassador and me pledged me Ieronimo. If thou
- 33:41Speaker 4: love thy.
- 33:42Speaker 1: King takes the cup of Horatio.
- 33:45Speaker 4: My lord, I fear we see it, but over long
- 33:48Speaker 4: unless our dangies were more delicate. But welcome are you
- 33:52Speaker 4: to the best we have? Now let us in that
- 33:54Speaker 4: you may be dispatched. I think our counsel is already.
- 33:58Speaker 1: Set and omnus Scene six, Ghost of Andrea Revenge.
- 34:09Speaker 2: Ah, come we for this from depth of underground to
- 34:13Speaker 2: see him feast that gave me my death's wound. These
- 34:19Speaker 2: pleasant sights a sorrow to my soul, nothing but leak
- 34:26Speaker 2: and love and banqueting. Ah, come we for this from
- 34:34Speaker 2: depth of underground, to see him feast that gave me
- 34:39Speaker 2: my death's wound. These pleasant sights are sorrow to my soul,
- 34:46Speaker 2: nothing but leak and love and banqueting.
- 34:52Speaker 3: Be still, Andrea, Here we go. From hence, I'll turn
- 34:55Speaker 3: their friendship into fell despite their love to mortal hate,
- 35:00Speaker 3: their day to night, their hope and too despair, their
- 35:04Speaker 3: peace to war, their joys to pain, their bliss to misery.
- 35:11Speaker 1: And of Act one Act two, Scene one. Enter Lorenzo
- 35:19Speaker 1: and Balthazar.
- 35:21Speaker 10: My lord, though bel imperious seem thus coy let reason
- 35:25Speaker 10: holds you in your wonted joy. In time, the savage
- 35:28Speaker 10: bulls stains the yoke. In time, all haggard hawks will
- 35:32Speaker 10: stoop to lure. In time, small wedges cleave the hardest oak.
- 35:37Speaker 10: In time the flint is pierced with softest shower, and she,
- 35:41Speaker 10: in time will fall from her disdain and rue the
- 35:45Speaker 10: sufferance of your friendly pain.
- 35:48Speaker 8: No, she is wilder and more hard withal than beast,
- 35:52Speaker 8: or bird, or tree or stony wall. But wherefore blot
- 35:56Speaker 8: I bel Imperia's name. It is my fault, not she
- 36:00Speaker 8: that merits blame. My feature is not to content her sight.
- 36:05Speaker 8: My words are rude, and work her no delight. The
- 36:08Speaker 8: lines I send her are but harsh and ill, such
- 36:12Speaker 8: as to drop from pan and Marcius quill. My presents
- 36:16Speaker 8: are not of sufficient cost, and being worthless, all my
- 36:19Speaker 8: labor's lost. Yet might she love me for my valiancy, Aye,
- 36:24Speaker 8: but that's slandered by captivity?
- 36:27Speaker 9: Yet?
- 36:28Speaker 8: Might she love me to content her sire?
- 36:30Speaker 2: Ay?
- 36:31Speaker 8: But her reason masters her desire? Yet might she love
- 36:35Speaker 8: me as her brother's friend. Ay, but her hopes aim
- 36:39Speaker 8: at some other end. Yet might she love me to
- 36:42Speaker 8: uprear her state?
- 36:43Speaker 7: Ay?
- 36:44Speaker 8: But perhaps she hopes some nobler mate. Yet might she
- 36:48Speaker 8: love me as her beauty's thrall?
- 36:50Speaker 12: Ay?
- 36:51Speaker 8: But I fear she cannot love it all?
- 36:54Speaker 10: My Lord, for my sake, leave this ecstasy and doubt not,
- 36:58Speaker 10: but will find some remedy some cause there is that
- 37:01Speaker 10: lets you not be lov'd? First that must needs be
- 37:05Speaker 10: known and then remov'd. What if my sister loves some other.
- 37:09Speaker 8: Night, my summer's day will turn to winter's night.
- 37:13Speaker 10: I have already found a stratagem to sound the bottom
- 37:16Speaker 10: of this doubtful theme, My lord, for once you shall
- 37:20Speaker 10: be ruled by me, hinder me not what e'er you
- 37:23Speaker 10: hear or see by force or fair means, will I
- 37:26Speaker 10: cast about to find the truth of all this question?
- 37:30Speaker 10: Out ho pedringano, signor vienquipresto enter Pedrongano.
- 37:37Speaker 17: Hath your lordship any service to command me.
- 37:40Speaker 10: I pedringano service of import, and not to spend the
- 37:45Speaker 10: time in trifling words. Thus stands the case. It is
- 37:49Speaker 10: not long thou know'st since I did shield thee from
- 37:52Speaker 10: my father's wrath for thy conveyance in Andrea's love, for
- 37:57Speaker 10: which thou wert adjudg'd to punishment. I stood betwixt THEE
- 38:01Speaker 10: and thy punishment. And since thou knowest how I have
- 38:04Speaker 10: favored THEE. Now to these favors, will I add reward,
- 38:08Speaker 10: not with fair words, but store of golden coin and
- 38:12Speaker 10: lands and living join with dignities. If thou but satisfy
- 38:16Speaker 10: my just demand, tell truth and have me for thy
- 38:20Speaker 10: lasting friend.
- 38:22Speaker 17: Whate'er it be, Your lordship shall demand my bound and
- 38:25Speaker 17: duty bids me tell the truth. If case it lie
- 38:27Speaker 17: in me to tell.
- 38:28Speaker 10: The truth, then Pedringano, this is my demand. Whom loves
- 38:33Speaker 10: my sister bel Imperia, for she reposeth all her trust
- 38:37Speaker 10: in THEE, speak man and gain both friendship and reward.
- 38:41Speaker 10: I mean whom loves she in Andrea's place.
- 38:44Speaker 17: Alas my lord. Since don Andrea's death, I have no
- 38:47Speaker 17: credit with her as before, and therefore know not if
- 38:51Speaker 17: she love or no nay.
- 38:52Speaker 10: If thou dali, then I.
- 38:54Speaker 1: Am thy foe draws his sword.
- 38:57Speaker 10: And fear shall force what friendship cannot win. Thy death
- 39:00Speaker 10: shall bury what thy life conceals. Thou diest for more
- 39:04Speaker 10: esteeming her than me.
- 39:06Speaker 17: Oh, stay, my lord.
- 39:08Speaker 10: Yet speak the truth, and I will girden THEE and
- 39:11Speaker 10: shield THEE from whatever can ensue, and will conceal whatever
- 39:15Speaker 10: proceeds from thee. But if thou daly once again, thou diest.
- 39:19Speaker 17: If Madame bel Imperia be in love, what villain ifs
- 39:22Speaker 17: and ann's Oh stay my lord, she loves Horatio.
- 39:26Speaker 1: Balthasar starts back.
- 39:28Speaker 10: What don Horatio, our knight martial.
- 39:31Speaker 1: Son, even him?
- 39:32Speaker 10: My lord now say? But how knowest thou he is
- 39:35Speaker 10: her love? And thou shalt find me kind and liberal?
- 39:39Speaker 10: Stand up, I say, and fear lest tell the truth.
- 39:42Speaker 17: She sent him letters which myself perused, full fraught with
- 39:45Speaker 17: lines and arguments of love, preferring him before Prince Balthazar.
- 39:50Speaker 10: Swear on this cross that what thou sayest is true,
- 39:52Speaker 10: and that thou wilt conceal what thou hast told.
- 39:55Speaker 17: I swear to both by him that made us all
- 39:58Speaker 17: in hope.
- 39:58Speaker 10: Thou oath is true. He is thy reward. But if
- 40:01Speaker 10: I prove THEE perjured and unjust this very sword whereon
- 40:06Speaker 10: thou took'st, thine oath shall be the worker of thy tragedy.
- 40:09Speaker 17: What I have said is true, and shall for me
- 40:12Speaker 17: be still concealed from bel imperia. Besides, your honor's liberality
- 40:17Speaker 17: deserves my duty of service even till death.
- 40:21Speaker 10: Let this be all that thou shalt do for me.
- 40:23Speaker 10: Be watchful when and where these lovers meet, and give
- 40:26Speaker 10: me notice in some secret.
- 40:28Speaker 17: Sword I will, my Lord.
- 40:30Speaker 10: Then shalt thou find that I am liberal? Thou knowest
- 40:33Speaker 10: that I can more advance thy state than she be?
- 40:36Speaker 10: Therefore wise and fail me not go and attend her
- 40:40Speaker 10: as thy custom is, lest absence make her think thou dost.
- 40:44Speaker 1: Amiss except Pedrigano.
- 40:47Speaker 10: Why so tam armis quam ingenio, where words prevail, not
- 40:52Speaker 10: violence prevails, but gold doth more than either of them both,
- 40:57Speaker 10: how likes Prince Baltazzar.
- 40:59Speaker 8: This stratagem both well and ill. It makes me glad
- 41:03Speaker 8: and sad. Glad that I know the hinderer of my love,
- 41:09Speaker 8: Sad that I fear she hates me whom I love,
- 41:12Speaker 8: Glad that I know on whom to be revenged, Sad
- 41:16Speaker 8: that shall fly me if I take revenge. Yet must
- 41:21Speaker 8: I take revenge or die myself? For love resisted grows impatient?
- 41:27Speaker 8: I think Horatio be my destined plague. First in his
- 41:31Speaker 8: hand he brandished a sword, and with that sword he
- 41:35Speaker 8: fiercely waged war. And in that war he gave me
- 41:39Speaker 8: dangerous wounds. And by those wounds he forced me to yield,
- 41:43Speaker 8: And by my yielding I became his slave. Now in
- 41:48Speaker 8: his mouth he carries pleasing words, which pleasing words do
- 41:52Speaker 8: harbor sweet conceits, which sweet conceits are lim'd with sly deceits,
- 41:58Speaker 8: which sly deceits smooth, bel imperious ears. And through her
- 42:04Speaker 8: ears dive down into her heart, and in her heart
- 42:08Speaker 8: set him where I should stand. Thus hath he tae
- 42:13Speaker 8: in my body by his force, and now by slight
- 42:17Speaker 8: would captivate my soul. But in his fall I'll tempt
- 42:22Speaker 8: the destinies and either lose my life or win my love.
- 42:27Speaker 10: Let's go, my lord, your staying stays revenge. Do you
- 42:31Speaker 10: but follow me and gain your love. Her favor must
- 42:34Speaker 10: be won by.
- 42:35Speaker 1: His remove accient scene too, Enter Horatio and bel imperia.
- 42:43Speaker 9: Now, madam, since by favor of your love, our hidden
- 42:48Speaker 9: smoke is turned to open flame, and that with looks
- 42:52Speaker 9: and words we feed our thought to chief contents where
- 42:56Speaker 9: more cannot be had. Thus in the midst of love's
- 42:59Speaker 9: fair blandishments, Why show you sign of inward languishments?
- 43:04Speaker 1: Pedron Gano showeth all to the Prince and Lorenzo, placing
- 43:07Speaker 1: them in secret.
- 43:09Speaker 15: My heart, sweet friend, is like a ship at sea.
- 43:12Speaker 15: She wisheth port where, riding all at ease, she may
- 43:16Speaker 15: repair what stormy times have worn, and, leaning on the shore,
- 43:20Speaker 15: may sing with joy that pleasure follows pain and bliss anoy.
- 43:25Speaker 15: Possession of thy love is the only port wherein my heart,
- 43:29Speaker 15: with fears and hopes long tossed each hour, doth wish
- 43:34Speaker 15: and long to make resort. They're to repair the joys
- 43:38Speaker 15: that it hath lost, and sitting safe to sing in
- 43:41Speaker 15: Cupid's choir, that sweetest bliss is crown of love's desire.
- 43:46Speaker 1: Balthazar and Lorenzo.
- 43:48Speaker 8: Above, Oh, sleep mine eyes see not my love profaned,
- 43:54Speaker 8: be deaf, my ears, bear not my discontent? Die heart
- 43:59Speaker 8: another joy? What thou deservest?
- 44:01Speaker 15: Why stands Horatio speechless?
- 44:04Speaker 9: All this? While the less I speak, the more I meditate?
- 44:08Speaker 15: But whereon dost thou chiefly meditate.
- 44:11Speaker 9: On dangerous past and pleasures to.
- 44:15Speaker 8: Ensue, on pleasures past and dangers to ensue What dangers.

- 48:18Speaker 4: Brother. You must take some little pains to win fair
- 48:21Speaker 4: bel Imperia from her will. Young virgins must be ruled
- 48:25Speaker 4: by their friends. The prince is aimable and loves her well.
- 48:30Speaker 4: If she neglects him and forego his love, she both
- 48:34Speaker 4: will wrong her own estate and ours. Therefore, whilst I
- 48:38Speaker 4: do entertain the prince with great displeasure that our court affords,

- 49:15Speaker 15: my fainting heart controls my soul.
- 49:18Speaker 9: Why make it doubt of Pedrigano's faith.
- 49:21Speaker 15: No, he is as trusty as my second self. Go Pedronano,
- 49:27Speaker 15: watch without the gate and let us know if any
- 49:30Speaker 15: make approach.
- 49:32Speaker 1: Pedron Gano aside.
- 49:34Speaker 17: Instead of watching, I'll deserve more gold by fetching Don
- 49:38Speaker 17: Lorenzo to this match.
- 49:40Speaker 1: Except Pedronano, what means my love?
- 49:43Speaker 15: I know not what myself, and yet my heart foretells
- 49:47Speaker 15: me some mischance.
- 49:49Speaker 9: Sweet say not so fair? Fortune is our friend, and
- 49:53Speaker 9: heavens have shut up day to pleasure us. The stars

- 50:17Speaker 15: for pleasure? Asketh ease.
- 50:19Speaker 9: The more thou sitt'st with these leafy bowers, the more
- 50:23Speaker 9: will Flora deck it with her flowers. Aye.

- 50:31Speaker 15: think I sit too near hark madam.
- 50:35Speaker 9: How the birds recall by night for joy that bel
- 50:39Speaker 9: Imperia sits in sight.
- 50:41Speaker 15: No Cupid counterfeits the nightingale to frame sweet music to
- 50:46Speaker 15: Horatio's tale.
- 50:48Speaker 9: If Cupid sing, then Venus is not far. I thou
- 50:52Speaker 9: art Venus or some fair star.
- 50:55Speaker 15: If I be Venus, thou must needs be Mars. And
- 51:00Speaker 15: where Mars reigneth, there must needs be wars.
- 51:04Speaker 9: Then thus begin thou wars. Put forth thy hand that
- 51:09Speaker 9: it may combat with my ruder hand.
- 51:12Speaker 15: Set forth thy foot to try the push of mine.
- 51:16Speaker 9: But first my looks shall combat against thine.
- 51:20Speaker 15: Then ward thyself. I doubt this, kiss it thee.
- 51:25Speaker 9: Thus I retort the dart thou thrust at me.
- 51:29Speaker 15: Nay, Then to gain the glory of the field, my

- 56:04Speaker 7: so generally beloved. His majesty the other day did grace
- 56:08Speaker 7: him with waiting on his cup. These be favors which
- 56:11Speaker 7: do assure me he cannot be short.
- 56:13Speaker 18: Lived, Sweet Hieronimo.
- 56:16Speaker 7: Who hell this fellow got his clothes? Sirrah, sirrah, I'll
- 56:20Speaker 7: know the truth of all jacques. Run to the Duke
- 56:23Speaker 7: of Castile presently and bid my son Horatio to come home.
- 56:27Speaker 7: I and his mother have had strange dreams to night.
- 56:30Speaker 7: Do you hear me, sir ay, sir well, Sir begone, Pedro,

- 57:03Speaker 9: Oh?
- 57:04Speaker 18: Would to God it were not?
- 57:05Speaker 12: So?
- 57:06Speaker 7: We're not, Isabella. Dost thou dream it is can thy
- 57:10Speaker 7: soft bosom? Entertain a thought that such a black deed
- 57:13Speaker 7: of mischief should be done on one so pure and
- 57:16Speaker 7: spotless as our son. Away, I am ashamed.
- 57:20Speaker 18: Dear Huronimo, cast a more serious eye upon thy grief.
- 57:25Speaker 18: Weak apprehension gives but weak belief.
- 57:29Speaker 7: It was a man, sure that was hanged up here,
- 57:32Speaker 7: a youth, as I remember, I cut him down. If
- 57:36Speaker 7: it should prove my son now after all? Say you
- 57:40Speaker 7: say you light than be a taper.
- 57:44Speaker 20: Let me look again, Oh God, confusion, mischief, torment, death
- 57:50Speaker 20: in hell. Drop all your stings at once in my
- 57:53Speaker 20: cold bosom that now.
- 57:54Speaker 7: Is stiff with horror.
- 57:56Speaker 21: Kill me quickly, be gracious to me, thou infectiveness, and
- 58:00Speaker 21: drop this deed of murder down on me in my
- 58:03Speaker 21: waste of grief with thy large darkness, and let me
- 58:06Speaker 21: not survive to see the light may put me in
- 58:09Speaker 21: the mind I had a sun.
- 58:11Speaker 18: Oh, sweet horas you o, my dearest.
- 58:14Speaker 7: Son, How strangely had I lost my way to grief?
- 58:19Speaker 7: Sweet lovely rose, ill pluck'd before thy time, fair worthy sun,
- 58:23Speaker 7: not conquered but betrayed. I'll kiss thee now the words
- 58:27Speaker 7: with tears are stayed.
- 58:29Speaker 18: And I'll close up the glasses of his sight. For
- 58:32Speaker 18: once these eyes were only my delight.
- 58:35Speaker 7: Seest thou, this handkerchief besmeared with blood. It shall not
- 58:40Speaker 7: from me till I take revenge. Seest thou, those wounds
- 58:43Speaker 7: that yet are bleeding fresh, I'll not entomb them till
- 58:47Speaker 7: I have revenge. Then will I joy mist my discontent,
- 58:52Speaker 7: till then my sorrow never shall be spent.
- 58:56Speaker 18: The heavens are just murder cannot be hid. Time is
- 59:00Speaker 18: the author both of truth and right, and time will
- 59:03Speaker 18: bring this treachery to light.
- 59:06Speaker 7: Meanwhile, good Isabella, cease thy plaints, or at the least
- 59:10Speaker 7: dissemble them. Awhile, so shall we Sooni find the practice
- 59:14Speaker 7: out and learn by whom all this was brought about.
- 59:18Speaker 7: Come Isabel, now, let us take him up.
- 59:20Speaker 1: They take him up.

- 1:02:07Speaker 22: of chance, and at our highest never joy we so

- 1:02:14Speaker 22: not the waves with sundry winds, as fortune toileth in
- 1:02:18Speaker 22: the affairs of kings that would be feared, Yet fear
- 1:02:21Speaker 22: to be beloved sith fear or love to kings is flattery.
- 1:02:26Speaker 22: For instance, lordings, look upon your king by hate, deprived
- 1:02:30Speaker 22: of his dearest son, the only hope of our successive line.
- 1:02:34Speaker 17: I had not thought that Alexandro's heart had been envelop
- 1:02:37Speaker 17: with such extreme hate. But now I see that words
- 1:02:40Speaker 17: have several works.
- 1:02:41Speaker 4: And there is no credit in the countenance.
- 1:02:44Speaker 14: No for my lord, had you beheld the train that
- 1:02:47Speaker 14: feigned love had cowered in his looks when he and

- 1:02:52Speaker 14: thought the sun that hourly coast the center of the earth,
- 1:02:55Speaker 14: than Alexandro's purpose to the prince?
- 1:02:57Speaker 22: No more, Villopold, thou hast said enough, and with thy
- 1:03:01Speaker 22: words thou slayest our wounded thoughts. Nor shall I longer
- 1:03:04Speaker 22: dully with the world procrastinating Alexandra's death. Go some of
- 1:03:08Speaker 22: you and fetch the traitor forth, that as he is
- 1:03:11Speaker 22: condemned he may die.
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: Enter Alexandro with a nobleman and Halberts.
- 1:03:17Speaker 10: In such extremes will naught that patience serve.

- 1:03:45Speaker 12: Not that I fear the extremity of death, for nobles
- 1:03:48Speaker 12: cannot stoop to serve our fear. Do I, O, king,

- 1:04:46Speaker 16: his Majesty, lay hands upon voluupo.

- 1:05:04Speaker 16: entreated in the court of Spain. Humbly commends him to
- 1:05:07Speaker 16: your Majesty. These eyes beheld, and these my followers, with

- 1:05:22Speaker 22: Thy son doth live. Your tribute is received, Thy piece
- 1:05:27Speaker 22: is made, and we are satisfied. The rest resolve upon
- 1:05:30Speaker 22: us things proposed for both our honors and thy benefit.
- 1:05:33Speaker 16: These are his Highness's father articles.
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: He gives him more letters.
- 1:05:38Speaker 22: A cursed wretch to intimate these ills against the life
- 1:05:41Speaker 22: and reputation of Noble Alexandro. Come, my lord, unbind him.
- 1:05:46Speaker 22: Let him unbind thee that is bound to death, to
- 1:05:49Speaker 22: make acquittal for thy discontent, they unbind him.
- 1:05:53Speaker 12: Dread Lord, in kindness, you could do no less upon
- 1:05:56Speaker 12: a report of such a damned fact. But thus we
- 1:06:00Speaker 12: see how innocence hath saved the hopeless life which thou, Muluppo, sought,
- 1:06:05Speaker 12: by thy suggestions to have massacred.
- 1:06:08Speaker 22: Say false Villoppo, wherefore didst thou thust falsely betray Lord
- 1:06:11Speaker 22: Alexandro's life, him whom thou knowest that no unkindness else
- 1:06:16Speaker 22: but even the slaughter of our dearest son could once
- 1:06:19Speaker 22: have moved us to have misconceived.
- 1:06:21Speaker 12: Say treacherous Villuppo. Tell the King wherein hath Alexandro used.
- 1:06:26Speaker 14: The ill read with remembrance of so far lagui, my
- 1:06:30Speaker 14: guilty soul submiss me to thy doom, for not for
- 1:06:33Speaker 14: Alexandro's injuries, but for reward and hope to be preferred.
- 1:06:37Speaker 14: Thus I have shamelessly hazarded.
- 1:06:39Speaker 22: His life, which villain shall be ransomed with thy death,
- 1:06:42Speaker 22: and not so mean a torment as we here devised
- 1:06:45Speaker 22: for him, who thou saidst slew our son, but with
- 1:06:48Speaker 22: the bitterest torments and extremes that may be yet invented
- 1:06:51Speaker 22: for thine end.
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: Alexandro seems to entreat.
- 1:06:55Speaker 22: Entreat me not go take the traitor.
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: Hence accept Filupo.
- 1:07:00Speaker 22: And Alexandro, let us honor thee with public notice of
- 1:07:04Speaker 22: thy loyalty. To end those things articulated here by our
- 1:07:08Speaker 22: grand Lord, the Mighty King of Spain. We with our council,
- 1:07:11Speaker 22: will deliberate. Come Alexandro, keep us company.
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: Accient scene too, enter hieronimo.
- 1:07:21Speaker 7: O eyes, no eyes but fountains fraught with tears. O life,
- 1:07:26Speaker 7: no life but lively form of death. O world, no
- 1:07:31Speaker 7: world but mass of public wrongs, confused and filled with
- 1:07:34Speaker 7: murder and misdeeds. O sacred heavens. If this unhallow deed,
- 1:07:39Speaker 7: if this inhuman and barbarous attempt, if this incomparable murder,
- 1:07:43Speaker 7: thus of mine, but now no more my son shall
- 1:07:47Speaker 7: unrevealed an unrevenged pass. How should we term your dealings
- 1:07:51Speaker 7: to be just? If you unjustly deal with those that
- 1:07:54Speaker 7: in your justice trust The Knight, sad secretary to my moans,
- 1:07:59Speaker 7: with direful visions, wakes my vexed soul, and with the
- 1:08:02Speaker 7: wounds of my distressful son, solicits me for notice of
- 1:08:06Speaker 7: his death. The ugly fiends do sally forth of hell
- 1:08:10Speaker 7: and frame my steps to unfrequented paths, and fear my
- 1:08:13Speaker 7: heart with fierce inflamed thoughts. The cloudy day my discontents
- 1:08:17Speaker 7: records early begins to register my dreams and drive me
- 1:08:22Speaker 7: forth to seek the murderer ayes life, world, heavens, hell,
- 1:08:26Speaker 7: night and day, see search shoe, send some man. Some
- 1:08:30Speaker 7: mean that may a letter falleth? What's here? A letter? Tush?
- 1:08:36Speaker 7: It is not so? A letter written to Hieronimo. Red
- 1:08:40Speaker 7: ink for want of ank receive this bloody writ me Hath,
- 1:08:45Speaker 7: my hapless brother hid from THEE. Revenge thyself on bathosar
- 1:08:48Speaker 7: and hem, for these were they that murdered thy son, Hieronimo.
- 1:08:52Speaker 7: Revenge Horatio's death and better fare than bel imperior doth
- 1:08:57Speaker 7: what means this unexpected miracle my unslain by Lorenzo and
- 1:09:01Speaker 7: the Prince? What cause had they Horatio to malign o?
- 1:09:05Speaker 7: What might move thee bel Imperia to accuse thy brother
- 1:09:09Speaker 7: had he been the mien Hieronimo. Beware thou art betrayed
- 1:09:14Speaker 7: and to entrap thy life. This train is laid. Advise
- 1:09:18Speaker 7: THEE therefore be not credulous. This is devised to endanger
- 1:09:23Speaker 7: THEE that thou by this Lorenzo shouldest accuse, and he
- 1:09:28Speaker 7: for thy dishonor done, should draw thy life in question
- 1:09:31Speaker 7: in thy name and hate dear was the life of
- 1:09:34Speaker 7: my beloved son, and of his death behooves me be revenged.
- 1:09:38Speaker 7: Then has it not thine own, Hieronimo, but live to
- 1:09:42Speaker 7: effect thy resolution? I therefore will, by circumstances try what
- 1:09:47Speaker 7: I can gather to confirm this writ And hearkening near
- 1:09:51Speaker 7: the Duke of Castile's house, close if I can, with
- 1:09:54Speaker 7: bel Imperia to listen more, But nothing.
- 1:09:57Speaker 1: To be ray, Enterpadran God, Now Pedrongano.
- 1:10:02Speaker 7: Now Hieronimo, where's thy lady?
- 1:10:05Speaker 17: I know not? Here's my lord?
- 1:10:07Speaker 1: Enter Lorenzo.
- 1:10:09Speaker 10: How no, who's this Hieronimo?
- 1:10:12Speaker 7: My lord?
- 1:10:13Speaker 17: He asketh for my lady bell Imperia.
- 1:10:16Speaker 10: What to do Hieronimo? The Duke my father hath upon
- 1:10:19Speaker 10: some disgrace or why removed her? Hence? But if it
- 1:10:22Speaker 10: be aught, I may inform her of tell me Hieronimo,
- 1:10:25Speaker 10: and I let her know it.
- 1:10:27Speaker 7: Nay, nay, my Lord, I thank you, it shall not need.
- 1:10:30Speaker 7: I had a suit under her, but too late, and
- 1:10:32Speaker 7: her disgrace makes me unfortunate.
- 1:10:34Speaker 10: Why so, Hieronimo use me.
- 1:10:36Speaker 7: Oh no, my lord, I dare not. It must not be.
- 1:10:40Speaker 7: I humbly thank your lordship.
- 1:10:42Speaker 10: Why then farewell my grief, No heart.
- 1:10:45Speaker 7: My thoughts, no tongue can tell.
- 1:10:48Speaker 10: Accep come hither, Pedrongano, seest.
- 1:10:51Speaker 17: Thou this, my lord, I see it and suspect it too.
- 1:10:55Speaker 10: This is that damned villain Serberine, that hath I fear
- 1:10:59Speaker 10: revealed Horatio's death.
- 1:11:01Speaker 17: My lord, he could not twas so lately done. And
- 1:11:04Speaker 17: since he hath not left.
- 1:11:05Speaker 10: My company, admit he have not. His conditions, such as
- 1:11:09Speaker 10: fear or flattering words, may make him false. I know
- 1:11:13Speaker 10: his humor, and therewith repent that e're I used him
- 1:11:17Speaker 10: in this enterprise. But Pedringano to prevent the worst, and
- 1:11:21Speaker 10: because I know thee secret as my soul. Here for
- 1:11:24Speaker 10: thy further satisfaction take thou.
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: This gives him more gold, and hearken to me.
- 1:11:30Speaker 10: Thus it is devised, this knight. Thou must and prithee
- 1:11:34Speaker 10: so resolve. Meet Serbareen at Saint Luigi's Park. Thou know'st
- 1:11:38Speaker 10: tis here hard by behind the house there, Take thy
- 1:11:42Speaker 10: stand and see thou strike him sure, for die he
- 1:11:46Speaker 10: must if.
- 1:11:47Speaker 17: We do mean to live but how shall Serbareen be there?
- 1:11:50Speaker 10: My Lord, let me alone. I'll send to him to
- 1:11:53Speaker 10: meet the Prince and me where thou must do this deed, It.
- 1:11:57Speaker 17: Shall be done, my lord, it shall be done, And
- 1:11:59Speaker 17: thou go arm myself to meet him there.
- 1:12:02Speaker 10: When things shall alter, as I hope they will, then
- 1:12:04Speaker 10: shalt thou mount. For this thou know'st my mind.
- 1:12:08Speaker 1: Exit Pedrin Gano.
- 1:12:09Speaker 10: Keela yeron enter page.
- 1:12:13Speaker 22: My lord, go.
- 1:12:14Speaker 10: Syrah to Serberine and bid him forthwith meet the Prince
- 1:12:18Speaker 10: and me at Saint Luigi's park behind the house this evening, boy,
- 1:12:23Speaker 10: I go, my lord, but Sarah, let the hour be
- 1:12:26Speaker 10: eight o'clock. Bid him not fail.
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: I fly, my Lord accept now to confirm.
- 1:12:33Speaker 10: The complot, thou hast cast of all these practices. I'll
- 1:12:36Speaker 10: spread the watch, upon precise commandment from the King strongly
- 1:12:41Speaker 10: to guard the place where Pederingano this knight shall murder
- 1:12:44Speaker 10: hapless Serberine. Thus must we work that will avoid distrust.
- 1:12:49Speaker 10: Thus must we practice to prevent mishap, And thus one
- 1:12:53Speaker 10: ill another must expulse this lie inquiry of Hieronimo, for
- 1:12:57Speaker 10: bel Imperia breeds suspicion, and this suspicion bodes a further ill.
- 1:13:02Speaker 10: As for myself, I know my secret fault, and so
- 1:13:05Speaker 10: do they. But I have dealt for them. They that
- 1:13:08Speaker 10: for coin, their souls endangered. To save my life for coin,
- 1:13:12Speaker 10: shall venture theirs and better. It's that base companions die
- 1:13:16Speaker 10: than by their life to hazard are goodhaps, Nor shall
- 1:13:20Speaker 10: they live for me to fear their faith. I'll trust myself.
- 1:13:24Speaker 10: Myself shall be my friend. For die they shall. Slaves
- 1:13:28Speaker 10: are ordained to no other end.
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: Scene three, enter Pedrongano with a pistole.
- 1:13:36Speaker 17: Now Pedringano, bid thy pistol, hold and hold on fortune
- 1:13:41Speaker 17: once more. Favor me, give but success to mine attempting spirit,
- 1:13:45Speaker 17: and let me shift for taking of mine aim. Here
- 1:13:48Speaker 17: is the gold, This is the gold proposed. It is
- 1:13:51Speaker 17: no dream that I adventure for. But Pedringano is possessed
- 1:13:54Speaker 17: thereof and he that would not strain his conscience for
- 1:13:58Speaker 17: him that thus his liberal persons dretched unworthy such a
- 1:14:01Speaker 17: favor may he fail and wishing want when such as
- 1:14:05Speaker 17: I prevail. As for the fear of apprehension, I know,
- 1:14:09Speaker 17: if need should be, my noble Lord will stand between
- 1:14:12Speaker 17: me and ensuing harms. Besides, this place is free from
- 1:14:15Speaker 17: all suspect. Here therefore will I stay and take my
- 1:14:19Speaker 17: stand enter the watch.
- 1:14:21Speaker 12: We wonder much to what intent it is that we
- 1:14:24Speaker 12: are loose expressly charged to watch.
- 1:14:27Speaker 5: Tis by commandment in the king's own name.
- 1:14:31Speaker 14: But we will never want to watch in ward so
- 1:14:33Speaker 14: near the duke his brother's house.
- 1:14:35Speaker 5: Before content yourself stand close this some oadd in't enter.
- 1:14:42Speaker 23: Serbareene hey sabauren, attend and stay thy pace. For here
- 1:14:47Speaker 23: did Don Lorentzo's page a point that thou, by his
- 1:14:50Speaker 23: command shouldst meet with him? How fit a place if
- 1:14:54Speaker 23: one were so disposed, methinks this corner is too close
- 1:14:58Speaker 23: with one.
- 1:14:59Speaker 17: Here comes the bird that I must seize upon now
- 1:15:02Speaker 17: pedron gano or never play the man.
- 1:15:05Speaker 23: I wonder that his lordship stays so long? Or wherefore
- 1:15:08Speaker 23: should he send for me so late?
- 1:15:10Speaker 17: For this suberine and now.
- 1:15:12Speaker 1: Shalt have it shoots the dag, So there he lies.
- 1:15:17Speaker 17: My promise is performed.
- 1:15:18Speaker 12: Huh, gentlemen, this is a pistol shirt, and here.
- 1:15:23Speaker 5: Is one slain Stay the murderer.
- 1:15:27Speaker 17: Now, by the sorrows of the souls in hell he
- 1:15:29Speaker 17: strives with the watch who first lays hands on me,
- 1:15:33Speaker 17: I'll be his priest, srah, confess and there, imply the priest.
- 1:15:37Speaker 14: Why hast thou unkindly killed the man?
- 1:15:40Speaker 17: Why because he walked abroad so late?
- 1:15:43Speaker 14: Come, sir, you have been better kept your bed than
- 1:15:46Speaker 14: have permitted his misdeeds so late.
- 1:15:48Speaker 5: Come to the marshals with the murderer.
- 1:15:52Speaker 12: Wound too, Hieronimo's help me here to bring the murdered
- 1:15:57Speaker 12: body with his.
- 1:15:57Speaker 17: Stew Hieronimo, carry me before whom you will, whatever he be,
- 1:16:02Speaker 17: I'll answer him and you and do your worst, for
- 1:16:06Speaker 17: I defy you all accient.
- 1:16:10Speaker 1: Scene four, Enter Lorenzo and Balthazar.
- 1:16:14Speaker 8: How now, my lord?
- 1:16:15Speaker 10: What makes you rise so soon fear of preventing armshaps
- 1:16:19Speaker 10: too late?
- 1:16:20Speaker 8: What mischief is it that we not mistrust.
- 1:16:23Speaker 10: Our greatest deals? We least mistrust, my lord, and inexpected
- 1:16:26Speaker 10: harms do hurt us most?
- 1:16:28Speaker 8: Why tell me, Don Lorenzo, tell me man if aught
- 1:16:32Speaker 8: concerns our honor and your own.
- 1:16:34Speaker 10: Nor you nor me, my lord, but both in one.
- 1:16:37Speaker 10: For I suspect, and the presumption's great that by those
- 1:16:40Speaker 10: base confederates in our fault touching the death of Don Horatio,
- 1:16:44Speaker 10: we are betrayed to old.
- 1:16:45Speaker 8: Heronimo betrayed Lorenzo tush it cannot be.
- 1:16:50Speaker 10: A guilty conscience urge with the thought of former evils
- 1:16:53Speaker 10: easily cannot err. I am persuaded, and persuade me not
- 1:16:57Speaker 10: that all's reveal to Eronimo, and therefore know that I
- 1:17:01Speaker 10: have cast it.
- 1:17:02Speaker 1: Thus enter page.
- 1:17:04Speaker 10: But here's the page.
- 1:17:05Speaker 18: How now what news with thee my lord Serberine is slain?
- 1:17:10Speaker 8: Who Serberen, my man, your highness is men.
- 1:17:14Speaker 5: My lord speak page?
- 1:17:16Speaker 10: Who murdered him?
- 1:17:17Speaker 18: He that is apprehended for the fact, who patron Ghano.
- 1:17:22Speaker 8: Is Serberen slain that loved his lord so well injurious
- 1:17:26Speaker 8: villain murderer of his friend.
- 1:17:29Speaker 10: Hath peedron Gano murdered Serberine?
- 1:17:31Speaker 12: My lord?
- 1:17:32Speaker 10: Let me entreat you to take the pains to exasperate
- 1:17:35Speaker 10: and hasten his revenge with your complaints. Unto my lord
- 1:17:38Speaker 10: the King, this dead dissension breeds a greater doubt.
- 1:17:42Speaker 8: Assure THEE don Lorenzo, he shall die, or else his
- 1:17:45Speaker 8: Highness hardly shall deny. Meanwhile, I'll haste the martial sessions
- 1:17:51Speaker 8: for die he shall for this his damning deed.
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: Except Balthazar.
- 1:17:56Speaker 10: Why so this fits our former policy, and thus experience
- 1:18:00Speaker 10: bids the wise to deal. I lay the plot. He
- 1:18:03Speaker 10: prosecutes the point I set the trap. He breaks the
- 1:18:06Speaker 10: worthless twigs and sees not that wherewith the bird was limbed. Thus,
- 1:18:10Speaker 10: hopeful men that mean to hold their own must look
- 1:18:14Speaker 10: like fowlers to their dearest friends. He runs to kill
- 1:18:17Speaker 10: whom I have helped to catch, and no man knows
- 1:18:20Speaker 10: it was my reaching. Fetch tis hard to trust into
- 1:18:23Speaker 10: a multitude or any one, in mine opinion, when men
- 1:18:27Speaker 10: themselves their secrets will reveal.
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: Enter a messenger with a letter.
- 1:18:32Speaker 10: Boy, my lord, what's he?
- 1:18:35Speaker 23: I have a letter to your lordship from whence from
- 1:18:38Speaker 23: Pegungano that's imprisoned.
- 1:18:40Speaker 10: So he is imprisoned, then, I, my good lord, what
- 1:18:44Speaker 10: would he with us? He writes us here to stand
- 1:18:47Speaker 10: the good lord and help him in distress? Tell him
- 1:18:49Speaker 10: I have his letters, Noah's mind, and what we may
- 1:18:53Speaker 10: let him assure him off? Fellow begone, My boy shall follow.
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: Thee exit messenger.
- 1:18:59Speaker 10: This works like wax. Yet once more, try thy wits boy,
- 1:19:03Speaker 10: Go convey this purse to Pedringano. Thou know'st to prison closely,
- 1:19:07Speaker 10: give it him and be advised that none be thereabout.
- 1:19:10Speaker 10: Bid him be merry still but secret, And though the
- 1:19:13Speaker 10: martial sessions be to day. Bid him not doubt of
- 1:19:15Speaker 10: his delivery. Tell him his pardon is already signed, and
- 1:19:19Speaker 10: thereon bid him boldly be resolved. For were he ready
- 1:19:23Speaker 10: to be turned off, as tis my will the uttermost
- 1:19:25Speaker 10: be tried, Thou with his pardon shalt attend him. Still,
- 1:19:29Speaker 10: Show him this box, tell him his pardon's int but
- 1:19:32Speaker 10: open it not. And if thou lovest thy life, but
- 1:19:35Speaker 10: let him wisely keep his hopes unknown. He shall not
- 1:19:38Speaker 10: want while Don Lorenzo lives away. I go, my lord,
- 1:19:43Speaker 10: I run, But Sarah see that this be cleanly done.
- 1:19:47Speaker 10: Act such page now stands our fortune on a tickle point,
- 1:19:52Speaker 10: and now or never ends Lorenzo's doubts. One only thing
- 1:19:56Speaker 10: is unaffected yet, and that's to see the executioner. But
- 1:20:00Speaker 10: what end I list not trust the air with utterance
- 1:20:03Speaker 10: of our pretense. Therein for fear the privy whisperings of
- 1:20:06Speaker 10: the wind convey our words amongst unfriendly ears that lie
- 1:20:10Speaker 10: to open to advantages. A quell k voglio EO nasum
- 1:20:14Speaker 10: loosar nintendo EO quell me bastara axcep.
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: Scene five and her boy with the box.
- 1:20:24Speaker 24: My master hath forbidden me to look in this box,
- 1:20:28Speaker 24: and by my draft as likely if he had not
- 1:20:31Speaker 24: warned me, I should not have had so much idle
- 1:20:34Speaker 24: time for we meen's kind in our minority, alike women
- 1:20:39Speaker 24: in their uncertainty, that they are most forbidden, and they
- 1:20:43Speaker 24: will soonest attempt. So I now, by my bare honesty,
- 1:20:50Speaker 24: here's nothing but the bare empty box.
- 1:20:53Speaker 8: Were it not sin.
- 1:20:55Speaker 18: Against secrecy, I would say it were a piece of
- 1:20:58Speaker 18: gentlemanlike knavery. I must go to Pedringano and tell him
- 1:21:04Speaker 18: his pardon is in this box. Nay, I would have
- 1:21:07Speaker 18: sworn it had I not seen the contrary. I cannot
- 1:21:12Speaker 18: choose but smile to think how the villain will float
- 1:21:15Speaker 18: the gallows, scorn the audience, and descant on the hangman
- 1:21:19Speaker 18: and all, presuming of his pardon. From hence wilt not
- 1:21:23Speaker 18: be an odd jest for me to stand and grace
- 1:21:26Speaker 18: every jest he makes pointing my finger at this box,
- 1:21:30Speaker 18: as who would say, mock on, here's thy warrantst not
- 1:21:34Speaker 18: a scurvy jest that a man should jest himself to death,
- 1:21:38Speaker 18: alas poor pedron Gano, I am in a sort sorry
- 1:21:42Speaker 18: for thee. But if I should be hanged with thee
- 1:21:46Speaker 18: I cannot weep.
- 1:21:48Speaker 1: Accept seene sex enter Hieronimo and the Deputy.
- 1:21:54Speaker 7: Thus must we toil an other men's extremes, that know
- 1:21:57Speaker 7: not how to remedy our own, and do that justice
- 1:22:01Speaker 7: when unjustly we for all our wrongs can compass no redress.
- 1:22:06Speaker 7: But shall I never live to see the day that
- 1:22:08Speaker 7: I may come, by justice of the heavens, to know
- 1:22:11Speaker 7: the cause that may my chaos lay? This toils my body,
- 1:22:15Speaker 7: this consumeth age that only I to all men just
- 1:22:19Speaker 7: must be, and neither gods nor men be just.
- 1:22:23Speaker 5: To me worthy, Hurralimo, your office asks a care to
- 1:22:28Speaker 5: punish such as do transgress.
- 1:22:31Speaker 7: So is it my duty to regard his death, who,

- 1:23:16Speaker 7: for there's thy place of execution.
- 1:23:18Speaker 17: This is short work, well to your martial ship. First

- 1:23:47Speaker 7: yet will I see that others have their right dispatch
- 1:23:51Speaker 7: the faults approved and confessed, and by our law he
- 1:23:54Speaker 7: is condemned to die.

- 1:27:50Speaker 7: Whose weight hath wearied the earth?
- 1:27:53Speaker 17: Or mine?
- 1:27:53Speaker 7: Exclaims that have surcharged the air with ceaseless plaints for
- 1:27:56Speaker 7: my deceased son. The blustering winds can, inspiring with my
- 1:28:01Speaker 7: words at my lament, have moved the leafless trees, disrobed
- 1:28:04Speaker 7: the meadows of their flowered green, made mountains marsh with
- 1:28:07Speaker 7: spring tides of my tears, and broken through the brazen
- 1:28:11Speaker 7: gates of hell. Yet still tormented is my tortured soul,
- 1:28:15Speaker 7: with broken sighs and restless passions, that winged mount and
- 1:28:19Speaker 7: hovering in the air, beat at the windows of the
- 1:28:21Speaker 7: brightest heavens, soliciting for justice and revenge. But they are
- 1:28:26Speaker 7: placed in those imperial heights where countermerored with walls of diamond.
- 1:28:30Speaker 7: I find the place impregnable, and they resist my woes
- 1:28:34Speaker 7: and give my words no way.
- 1:28:36Speaker 1: Enter Hangman with a letter.
- 1:28:38Speaker 2: O Lord sir, God bless you, sir. The man sir
- 1:28:43Speaker 2: pedder God, Sir, Hey, that was so full of merry
- 1:28:47Speaker 2: conceits Well what of him, O, Lord sir? He went
- 1:28:51Speaker 2: the wrong way. The fellow had a fairer commission to
- 1:28:55Speaker 2: the contrary, sir. Here is his passport. I pray you, sir,
- 1:29:01Speaker 2: we have done him wrong.
- 1:29:03Speaker 7: I warrant thee give it me.

- 1:29:10Speaker 2: I thank your Lord worship.
- 1:29:13Speaker 1: Exit Hangman.
- 1:29:14Speaker 7: And yet, though somewhat nearer me concerns, I will to
- 1:29:17Speaker 7: ease the grief that I sustain. Take truce with sorrow.
- 1:29:20Speaker 7: While I read on this, my lord, I write as
- 1:29:23Speaker 7: mine extremes required that you would labor my delivery. If
- 1:29:27Speaker 7: you neglect, my life is desperate, and in my death
- 1:29:29Speaker 7: I shall reveal the troth. You know, my lord, I
- 1:29:32Speaker 7: slew him for your sake, and was confederate with the prince,
- 1:29:36Speaker 7: and you won by rewards and hopeful promises. I hope
- 1:29:40Speaker 7: to murder don Horatio too. Hope he'd a murder mine Horatio,
- 1:29:45Speaker 7: and act as in the accursed tragedy. Wast thou, Lorenzo Balthazzah,
- 1:29:49Speaker 7: and thou of whom my son my son deserved? So well?
- 1:29:53Speaker 7: What have I heard? What have mine eyes beheld? O,
- 1:29:56Speaker 7: sacred heavens? May it come to pass that such a
- 1:29:58Speaker 7: monstrous and detested deed, so closely smothered and so long concealed,
- 1:30:03Speaker 7: shall thus by this be venged or revealed? Now see
- 1:30:07Speaker 7: I what I durst not? Then suspect that bel Imperia's
- 1:30:11Speaker 7: letter is not feigned nor faint she though falsely they
- 1:30:14Speaker 7: have wronged both her, myself, Horatio and themselves. Now may
- 1:30:19Speaker 7: I make compare TwixT hers and this of every accident
- 1:30:22Speaker 7: I ne'er could find till now. And now, I, feeling THEE,
- 1:30:26Speaker 7: perceive they did what heaven unpunished would not leave. Oh,
- 1:30:29Speaker 7: false Lorenzo, are these thy flattering looks? Is this the
- 1:30:33Speaker 7: honor that them didst? My son and bathersa bane to
- 1:30:37Speaker 7: thy soul in me? Was this the ransom he reserved
- 1:30:41Speaker 7: thee for woe to the cause of these constrained wars,
- 1:30:45Speaker 7: Woe to thy baseness and captivity, Woe to thy birth,
- 1:30:47Speaker 7: thy body, and thy soul, thy cursed father, and thy
- 1:30:50Speaker 7: conquered self and band with bitter execrations. Be the day
- 1:30:54Speaker 7: and place where he did pity thee. But wherefore waste
- 1:30:58Speaker 7: I mine? Unfruitful were words when nought, But blood will
- 1:31:01Speaker 7: satisfy my woes. I'll go plain me to my lord
- 1:31:04Speaker 7: the King, and cry alout for justice through the court,
- 1:31:08Speaker 7: wearing the flints with these my withered feet, and either
- 1:31:11Speaker 7: purchased justice by entreats, or tire them all with my
- 1:31:14Speaker 7: revenging threats.
- 1:31:16Speaker 1: Accept Scene eight. Enter Isabella and her maid.
- 1:31:23Speaker 8: So that you say this.
- 1:31:24Speaker 18: Herb will purge the eye, and this the head, Ah,
- 1:31:29Speaker 18: but none of them will purge the heart. No, there's
- 1:31:32Speaker 18: no medicine left for my disease, nor any physic to
- 1:31:36Speaker 18: recure the dead.
- 1:31:38Speaker 1: She runs lunatic.
- 1:31:40Speaker 18: Horatio, Oh, where's Horatio?

- 1:31:56Speaker 18: Bought you a whistle and whip stock too, to be
- 1:32:00Speaker 18: revenged on.
- 1:32:00Speaker 15: Their villanies, Madam, these humors do torment my soul.
- 1:32:05Speaker 1: My soul, poor soul.
- 1:32:08Speaker 18: Thou talk'st of things? Thou knowest not what my soul hath?
- 1:32:13Speaker 18: Silver wings that mount me up unto the highest heavens.
- 1:32:17Speaker 18: To hen Ay, there sits my Horatio, back to a
- 1:32:21Speaker 18: troop of fiery cherubins, dancing about his newly heated wounds,
- 1:32:26Speaker 18: singing sweet hymns and chanting Henley notes rare harmony to
- 1:32:31Speaker 18: greet his innocence. That died, I died a mirror in
- 1:32:36Speaker 18: our days. But say, where shall I find the men,
- 1:32:40Speaker 18: the murderers that slew Horatio? Whither shall I run to
- 1:32:44Speaker 18: find them out that murdered my son?
- 1:32:47Speaker 1: Excient scene nine bell Imperia at a window?
- 1:32:52Speaker 15: What means this outrage that is offered me? Why am
- 1:32:56Speaker 15: I thus sequested from the court?
- 1:32:59Speaker 1: No notice?
- 1:33:01Speaker 15: Shall I not know the cause of these my secret
- 1:33:03Speaker 15: and suspicious ills? Accursed brother, unkind murderer? Why bendest thou
- 1:33:10Speaker 15: thus thy mind to martyr me Hieronimo why writ I
- 1:33:15Speaker 15: of thy wrongs? Or why art thou so slack in
- 1:33:19Speaker 15: thy revenge? Andrea o Andrea that thou sawest me for

- 1:33:31Speaker 15: courseless murdered well force perforce, I must constrain myself to
- 1:33:38Speaker 15: patience and apply me to the time till heaven, as
- 1:33:42Speaker 15: I have hoped, shall set me free.

- 1:34:02Speaker 10: Thou art assured that.
- 1:34:03Speaker 7: Thou sawest him dead or else, my Lord I live.
- 1:34:07Speaker 10: Not that's enough as for his resolution and his end,
- 1:34:11Speaker 10: leave that to him with whom he saw johns now here.

- 1:34:17Speaker 10: let my sister be enlarged and bring her hither straight
- 1:34:20Speaker 10: accept page. This that I did was for a policy
- 1:34:23Speaker 10: to smooth and keep the murder's secret, which as a
- 1:34:26Speaker 10: nine days wonder being overblown, My gentle sister, will I
- 1:34:30Speaker 10: now enlarge and.

- 1:34:44Speaker 10: Ay, then in your love beware deal cunningly salve all suspicions,

- 1:34:55Speaker 10: so jest for her gently under feign to jest? Are
- 1:34:59Speaker 10: things concealed that else would breed unrest?
- 1:35:02Speaker 1: But here she comes enter val Imperia.
- 1:35:06Speaker 25: Now, sister, no thou art no brother but an enemy?
- 1:35:11Speaker 25: Else wouldst thou not have used thy sister? So first
- 1:35:15Speaker 25: to affright me with thy weapons drawn, and with extremes
- 1:35:20Speaker 25: abuse my company, And then to harry me like Whirldwind's
- 1:35:24Speaker 25: rage amidst a crew of thy confederates, and clap me
- 1:35:29Speaker 25: up where none might come at me, nor I at
- 1:35:32Speaker 25: any to reveal my wrongs. What madding fury did possess
- 1:35:37Speaker 25: thy wits?
- 1:35:39Speaker 15: Or wherein is it that I offended?

- 1:35:53Speaker 15: While Lorenzo, wherein is it that I neglect my reputations,
- 1:35:58Speaker 15: so as you or any need to rescue it.

- 1:36:24Speaker 10: consorted with the Prince and unexpected in an arbor there
- 1:36:27Speaker 10: fan bell Imperia with Horatio. How then, I, then, remembering
- 1:36:32Speaker 10: that old disgrace which you, for don Andrea had endured
- 1:36:35Speaker 10: and now were likely longer to sustain by being found
- 1:36:38Speaker 10: so meanly, accompanied thought rather, for I knew no ready
- 1:36:42Speaker 10: a mien to thrust Ratio forth my father's.
- 1:36:44Speaker 8: Way and carry yon obscurely somewhere else, lest that His
- 1:36:48Speaker 8: Highness should have found you there.
- 1:36:50Speaker 15: Even so, my lord and you are witnessed that this
- 1:36:54Speaker 15: is true, which he entreateth of you, gentle brother, for

- 1:37:04Speaker 15: his instrument a work of worth worthy the noting too.
- 1:37:08Speaker 15: But what's the cause that you concolded me?
- 1:37:11Speaker 10: Since your melancholy, sister, since the news of your first favorite,
- 1:37:16Speaker 10: Don Andrea's death, my father's old wrath hath exasperate.
- 1:37:20Speaker 8: And better wast for you, being in disgrace to absent
- 1:37:24Speaker 8: yourself and give his fury place.
- 1:37:27Speaker 15: But why had I no notice of his ire that.
- 1:37:30Speaker 10: Were to add more fuel to your fire? Who burnt
- 1:37:32Speaker 10: Legetna for Andrea's.
- 1:37:34Speaker 8: Loss hath not?
- 1:37:35Speaker 15: My father then inquired for me.
- 1:37:37Speaker 1: Sister, he hath and thus excused I thee he whispereth
- 1:37:41Speaker 1: in her ear.
- 1:37:42Speaker 10: But bel imperia, see the gentle prince, look on thy love.
- 1:37:46Speaker 10: Behold young Baltazzar, whose passions, by thy presence are increased,
- 1:37:51Speaker 10: and in whose melancholy thou mayst see thy hate, his love,
- 1:37:54Speaker 10: thy flight, his following.
- 1:37:56Speaker 15: Thee brother, you are become an orator. I know not
- 1:37:59Speaker 15: I by what experience to politic for me past all
- 1:38:04Speaker 15: compare since last I saw you, but content yourself. The
- 1:38:09Speaker 15: Prince is meditating higher things.
- 1:38:12Speaker 8: Tis of thy beauty, then that conquers kings of those
- 1:38:16Speaker 8: thy tresses Ariadne's twines. Wherewith my liberty thou hast surprised
- 1:38:22Speaker 8: of that thine ivory front my sorrow's map, wherein I
- 1:38:27Speaker 8: see no haven to rest my hope, to.
- 1:38:29Speaker 15: Love and fear, and both at once, my Lord, in
- 1:38:33Speaker 15: my conceit, are things of more import than women's wits
- 1:38:37Speaker 15: are to be busied with.
- 1:38:39Speaker 8: Tis I that love whom bel imperia.
- 1:38:43Speaker 15: But I that fear whom bel imperia.
- 1:38:47Speaker 10: Fear yourself, I brother, how.
- 1:38:51Speaker 15: As those that what they love are loathe and fear
- 1:38:55Speaker 15: to lose.
- 1:38:56Speaker 8: Then fair, let Balthasar your keeper.

- 1:39:43Speaker 7: slippers are not mine. They were my son, Horatio's, my son.
- 1:39:47Speaker 7: And what a sun a thing begot within a pair
- 1:39:49Speaker 7: of minutes thereabout a lump bred up in darkness, and

- 1:40:08Speaker 7: What is there Yetna's son? He must be fed, be
- 1:40:12Speaker 7: taught to go and speak?
- 1:40:14Speaker 4: Ay?
- 1:40:14Speaker 7: Or yet why not a man love a calf as well,
- 1:40:17Speaker 7: or melt in passion or frisking kid as for a son.
- 1:40:21Speaker 7: Methinks a young bacon or a fine little smooth horse
- 1:40:24Speaker 7: colt should move a man as much as doth a son.
- 1:40:27Speaker 7: For one of these, in very little time will grow
- 1:40:30Speaker 7: to some good use. Whereas a son, the more he
- 1:40:33Speaker 7: grows in stature ends in years, the more unsquared, unbeveled
- 1:40:37Speaker 7: he appears, reckons his parents among the rank of fools,
- 1:40:41Speaker 7: strikes care upon their heads with his mad riots, makes
- 1:40:45Speaker 7: them look old before they meet with age. This is
- 1:40:47Speaker 7: a son, And what a loss? Were this considered truly? Oh?
- 1:40:53Speaker 7: But my Horatio grew out of reach of these insatiate humors.
- 1:40:57Speaker 7: He loved his loving parents. He was my comfort in
- 1:40:59Speaker 7: his mother's joy. The very arm that did hold up
- 1:41:02Speaker 7: our house, our hopes were stored up in him. None
- 1:41:06Speaker 7: but a damned murderer could hate him. He had not
- 1:41:09Speaker 7: seen the back of nineteen year when his strong arm
- 1:41:12Speaker 7: on horse, the proud Prince Balthazar, and his great mind,
- 1:41:16Speaker 7: too full of honor, took him to his mercy, that
- 1:41:19Speaker 7: valiant but ignoble portingale. Well, heaven is heaven still, and
- 1:41:23Speaker 7: there is nemesis and furies and things called whips. And
- 1:41:28Speaker 7: they sometimes do meet with murderers. They do not always escape.
- 1:41:32Speaker 7: That is some comfort, aye, ay ay. And then time
- 1:41:37Speaker 7: steals on and steals and steals till violence leaps forth
- 1:41:40Speaker 7: like thunder wrapped in a ball of fire. And so
- 1:41:42Speaker 7: doth bring confusion to them all. Good leave have you, nay?
- 1:41:46Speaker 7: I pray you go, for I'll leave you if you
- 1:41:49Speaker 7: can leave me.
- 1:41:49Speaker 12: So pray you.
- 1:41:51Speaker 10: Which is the next way to my lord the Duke's
- 1:41:54Speaker 10: the next.
- 1:41:54Speaker 7: Way from me to his house? We mean, oh hard
- 1:41:58Speaker 7: by tis yon house that you see?
- 1:42:00Speaker 10: You could not tell us if his son were there.
- 1:42:02Speaker 1: Who my Lord Lorenzo, Ay, sir, He goeth in at
- 1:42:07Speaker 1: one door and comes out at another.
- 1:42:09Speaker 7: Oh forbear for other talk for us far fire were.
- 1:42:13Speaker 7: But if you be importunate to know the way to
- 1:42:15Speaker 7: him and where to find him out, then this to me,
- 1:42:18Speaker 7: I'll resolve your doubt. There is a path upon your
- 1:42:21Speaker 7: left hand side that leadeth from a guilty conscience unto
- 1:42:25Speaker 7: a forest of distrust and fear, a dark soon place
- 1:42:28Speaker 7: and dangerous to pass. There shall you meet with melancholy thoughts,
- 1:42:33Speaker 7: whose bareful humors, if you but uphold it will conduct
- 1:42:36Speaker 7: you to despair and death, Whose rocky cliffs, when you
- 1:42:40Speaker 7: have once beheld within a huge dale of lasting night,
- 1:42:44Speaker 7: that kindled with the world's iniquities, doth cast up filthy
- 1:42:47Speaker 7: and detested fumes. Not far from thence where murderers have
- 1:42:51Speaker 7: built a habitation for their cursed souls, there an a
- 1:42:55Speaker 7: brazen cauldron fixed by Jove in his fell wrath, upon
- 1:42:59Speaker 7: a self flame, yourselves shall find Lorenzo bathing him and
- 1:43:03Speaker 7: boiling lead and blood of innocence. Ha ha ha ha
- 1:43:07Speaker 7: ha ha why ha ha farewell good ha ha ha.
- 1:43:12Speaker 1: Accent.
- 1:43:14Speaker 10: Doubtless this man is passing lunatic or imperfection of his
- 1:43:18Speaker 10: age doth make him dot come. That's the way to
- 1:43:21Speaker 10: seek my lord, the.
- 1:43:22Speaker 1: Duke Scene twelve. Enter Hieronimo with a poniard in one
- 1:43:28Speaker 1: hand and a rope in the other.
- 1:43:30Speaker 7: Now, sir, perhaps I come and see the king. The
- 1:43:33Speaker 7: king sees me, and fain would hear my suit? Why
- 1:43:36Speaker 7: is not this a strange and celled seen thing that
- 1:43:39Speaker 7: standeth by with toys? Should strike me? Mute? Go too,
- 1:43:43Speaker 7: I see their ships and say no more, Hieronimo. Tis
- 1:43:47Speaker 7: time for thee to trudge down. By the dale that
- 1:43:50Speaker 7: flows with purple gore, standeth a fiery tower. There sits
- 1:43:54Speaker 7: a judge upon a seat of steel and molten brass,
- 1:43:57Speaker 7: and TwixT his teeth he holds a fire bread. And
- 1:44:00Speaker 7: that leads on to the lake where hell doth stand away. Hieronimo,
- 1:44:05Speaker 7: to him be gone, He'll do THEE justice for Horatio's death.
- 1:44:09Speaker 7: Turn down this path, thou shalt be with him straight
- 1:44:13Speaker 7: all this, and then thou needest not take thy breath
- 1:44:16Speaker 7: This way all that way. I soften fear, not so,
- 1:44:21Speaker 7: for if I hang, I'll kill myself. Let's know who
- 1:44:24Speaker 7: will revenge Horatio's MIRTHA Then no, no fie, no pardon me,
- 1:44:29Speaker 7: all none of that.
- 1:44:31Speaker 1: He flings away the dagger and halter.
- 1:44:34Speaker 7: This way I'll take and this way comes the King.
- 1:44:37Speaker 1: He takes them up again.
- 1:44:39Speaker 7: And here I'll have a fling at him. That's flat,
- 1:44:41Speaker 7: and Balthazar, I'll be with thee to bring and thee Lorenzo,
- 1:44:45Speaker 7: here's the king. Nay, stay and here I hear there
- 1:44:50Speaker 7: goes the hare away.
- 1:44:52Speaker 1: Enter King, Ambassador Castile and Lorenzo.
- 1:44:57Speaker 4: Now show ambassador what our viceroy said. Heth he received
- 1:45:01Speaker 4: the articles we sent.
- 1:45:03Speaker 7: Justice, Oh justice to hear anymore?
- 1:45:06Speaker 10: Back sease they're not. The king is busy, oh is he? So?
- 1:45:11Speaker 4: Who is he that interrupts our business?
- 1:45:14Speaker 7: Not I here animo, beware, go by, go.
- 1:45:17Speaker 16: By, renowned King, he hath received and read thy kingly
- 1:45:21Speaker 16: prophets and thy promised league. And as a man extremely
- 1:45:25Speaker 16: overjoyed to hear his son so princely entertained, whose death
- 1:45:28Speaker 16: he had so solemnly bewailed this for thy further satisfaction
- 1:45:32Speaker 16: in kingly love, he kindly lets THEE know first for
- 1:45:36Speaker 16: the marriage of his princely son with bel Imperia, thy
- 1:45:39Speaker 16: beloved niece. The news are more delightful to his soul
- 1:45:42Speaker 16: than me or incense to the offended heavens in person.
- 1:45:45Speaker 16: Therefore will he come himself to see the marriage right solemnized,
- 1:45:49Speaker 16: and in the presence of the court of Spain, to
- 1:45:52Speaker 16: knit a sure, inextricable band of kingly love and everlasting
- 1:45:56Speaker 16: league betwixt the crowns of Spain and Portingal. There will
- 1:45:59Speaker 16: he give his crown to Balthazar and make a queen
- 1:46:02Speaker 16: of bel Imperia.
- 1:46:03Speaker 4: Brother, How like you this ol viceroys love no doubt,
- 1:46:08Speaker 4: my lord.
- 1:46:09Speaker 12: It is an argument of honorable care to keep his
- 1:46:12Speaker 12: friend and wondrous Zeal a balt desire his son. Nor
- 1:46:17Speaker 12: am I least indebted to his grace that bends by
- 1:46:20Speaker 12: liking to my daughter.
- 1:46:22Speaker 16: Thus, now last dreadlord, here hath his Highness sent, although
- 1:46:26Speaker 16: he said not that his son returned his ransom due
- 1:46:29Speaker 16: to Don Horatio.
- 1:46:31Speaker 4: Horatio who calls Horatio and well remembered, Thank his majesty
- 1:46:36Speaker 4: here see it given to a racio.
- 1:46:39Speaker 7: Justice. Oh justice, Justice, gentle king.
- 1:46:43Speaker 4: Who is that Hieronimo?
- 1:46:46Speaker 7: Justice, Oh justice, Oh my son, my son, my son
- 1:46:49Speaker 7: whom knock can ransom or redeem?
- 1:46:51Speaker 10: Hieronimo, You are not well advised.
- 1:46:55Speaker 7: Away, Lorenzo. Hinder me no more, for thou hast made
- 1:46:58Speaker 7: me bankrupt of my bliss. Give me my son. You
- 1:47:01Speaker 7: shall not ransom him away.
- 1:47:03Speaker 1: I'll rip the bowels of the earth he diggeth with
- 1:47:06Speaker 1: his dagger.
- 1:47:07Speaker 7: Then very over to the Allegian plains, and bring my
- 1:47:09Speaker 7: son to show his deadly wounds.
- 1:47:12Speaker 20: Stand from about me.
- 1:47:13Speaker 7: I'll make a pickaxe of my poniard, and here surrender
- 1:47:17Speaker 7: up my marshalship, for I'll go marshal up the fiends
- 1:47:20Speaker 7: in hell to be avenged on you all for this.
- 1:47:23Speaker 4: What means, this outrage? Will none of you restrain his fury?
- 1:47:28Speaker 7: Nay, soft and fair, you shall not need to strive
- 1:47:31Speaker 7: for needs.
- 1:47:32Speaker 4: Must he go that the devils drive accept what accident
- 1:47:36Speaker 4: hath happened Hereonimo, I have not seen him to demean him.
- 1:47:40Speaker 10: So, my gracious lord, he is with extreme pride, conceived
- 1:47:44Speaker 10: of young Horatio his son, and competous of having to
- 1:47:47Speaker 10: himself the ransom of the young Prince Balthazar distract and
- 1:47:51Speaker 10: inner manner lunatic.
- 1:47:52Speaker 4: Believe me, nephew, we are sorry for it. This is
- 1:47:56Speaker 4: the love that father spare their sons. But gentle brother,
- 1:48:00Speaker 4: go give to him this gold the princess ransom. Let
- 1:48:04Speaker 4: him have his due for what he hath for rature
- 1:48:07Speaker 4: shall not want haply, Hieronimo hath need thereof.
- 1:48:11Speaker 10: But if he be thus helplessly distract tis requisite his
- 1:48:15Speaker 10: office be resigned and given to one of more discussion.
- 1:48:18Speaker 4: We shall increase his melancholy soul dispassed, that we see
- 1:48:22Speaker 4: further in it. First till when ourself will hold extempt
- 1:48:26Speaker 4: the place. And brother. Now bring in the ambassador, that
- 1:48:31Speaker 4: he may be a witness of the match TwixT Baltasar
- 1:48:34Speaker 4: and bill Imperia, and that we may prefix a certain
- 1:48:37Speaker 4: time wherein the marriage shall be solemnized, that we may
- 1:48:41Speaker 4: have thy Lord, the Viceroy heir there.
- 1:48:44Speaker 16: In your highness highly shall content his majesty that longs
- 1:48:47Speaker 16: to hear from hence on.
- 1:48:49Speaker 4: Then and hear your Lord Ambassador.
- 1:48:52Speaker 1: Accient Scene twelve A enter Jaqui's and Pedro.
- 1:48:58Speaker 14: Oh, wonder Aedro, why our master thus at midnight sends
- 1:49:01Speaker 14: us with our torture's light, when man and bird and
- 1:49:05Speaker 14: beast are all at rest, save those that watch for
- 1:49:08Speaker 14: rape and bloody murder.
- 1:49:09Speaker 19: Oh, Jacques, know thou that our master's mind is much
- 1:49:12Speaker 19: distraught since his Horatio died, and now his aged years
- 1:49:16Speaker 19: should sleep and rest his heart and quiet, like a
- 1:49:19Speaker 19: desperate man grows lunatic and childish for his son. Sometimes,
- 1:49:24Speaker 19: as he dot that his table sit, he speaks as
- 1:49:27Speaker 19: if Horatio stood by him. Then, starting in a rage,
- 1:49:31Speaker 19: falls on the earth, cries out, Horatio, where is my Horatio?
- 1:49:36Speaker 19: So that with extreme grief and cutting sorrow, there is
- 1:49:39Speaker 19: not left in him one inch of man? See where
- 1:49:42Speaker 19: he comes?
- 1:49:43Speaker 1: Enter Hieronimo.
- 1:49:45Speaker 7: I pry through every crevice of each wall, look on
- 1:49:48Speaker 7: each tree, and search through every break. Beat at the bushes,
- 1:49:53Speaker 7: stamp our grand amars, dive in the water, and stare
- 1:49:57Speaker 7: up to heaven. Yet cannot I behold myself on Horatio?
- 1:50:01Speaker 7: How now? Who's there? Spirits? Spirits?
- 1:50:04Speaker 19: We are your servants that attend you, sir?
- 1:50:07Speaker 7: What make you with your torches in the dark?
- 1:50:09Speaker 19: You bid us light them and attend you here?
- 1:50:12Speaker 7: No, no, you are deceived. Not I you are deceived?
- 1:50:16Speaker 7: Was I so mad to bid you light your torches? Now?
- 1:50:19Speaker 7: Light me your torches? At the mid of noon, when
- 1:50:22Speaker 7: as the sun God rides in all his glory, light
- 1:50:24Speaker 7: me your torches.
- 1:50:25Speaker 19: Then then we burn daylight.
- 1:50:28Speaker 7: Let it be burnt.
- 1:50:30Speaker 9: Night.
- 1:50:30Speaker 7: Is a murderous slut that would not have her treasons
- 1:50:33Speaker 7: to be seen and yonder pale faced he cat there.
- 1:50:37Speaker 7: The moon doth give consent to that is done in
- 1:50:40Speaker 7: her darkness. And all those stars that gaze upon her
- 1:50:44Speaker 7: face are aglets on her sleeve, pins on her train.
- 1:50:48Speaker 7: And those that should be powerful and divine do sleep
- 1:50:51Speaker 7: in darkness when they most should shine.
- 1:50:54Speaker 19: Provoke them, not, fair, sir, with tempting words. The heavens
- 1:50:57Speaker 19: are gracious, and your miseries and sorrows make you speak.
- 1:51:00Speaker 7: You know not what villain thou liest, and thou dost
- 1:51:04Speaker 7: not for tell me I am mad, thou liest, I
- 1:51:07Speaker 7: am not mad. I know thee to be Pedro and
- 1:51:10Speaker 7: he jaquis. I'll prove it to thee. And were I'm mad,
- 1:51:14Speaker 7: how could I? Where was she that same night when
- 1:51:17Speaker 7: my Horatio was murdered? She should have shown searched thou
- 1:51:22Speaker 7: the book. Had the moon shone in my boy's face,
- 1:51:26Speaker 7: there was a kind of grace that I know, Nay,
- 1:51:29Speaker 7: I do know. Had the murderer seen him, his weapon
- 1:51:32Speaker 7: would have fallen and cut the earth, had he been
- 1:51:35Speaker 7: framed of naught but blood and death. Alack, when mischief
- 1:51:40Speaker 7: doth it knows not, what what shall we say to mischief?
- 1:51:44Speaker 18: Enter Isabella, dear Hieronimo, Come in adoors. Oh seek not
- 1:51:50Speaker 18: means so to increase thy sorrow.
- 1:51:52Speaker 7: Indeed, Isabella, we do nothing here. I do not cry,
- 1:51:57Speaker 7: ask Pedro and ask jaquis not I? Indeed we are
- 1:52:02Speaker 7: very merry, very merry.
- 1:52:05Speaker 8: How be merry?
- 1:52:06Speaker 18: Here? Be merry? Here?
- 1:52:09Speaker 9: Is not this the place?
- 1:52:10Speaker 18: And this the very tree where my Horatio died, where
- 1:52:15Speaker 18: he was murdered was?
- 1:52:18Speaker 7: Do not say what? Let her weep it out? This
- 1:52:23Speaker 7: was the tree I said it of a colonel. And
- 1:52:26Speaker 7: when our hot spain could not let it grow, but
- 1:52:29Speaker 7: that the infant in the human sap began to wither
- 1:52:32Speaker 7: duly twice a morning, would I be sprinkling it with
- 1:52:34Speaker 7: fountain water. At last it grew and grew, and bore
- 1:52:39Speaker 7: and tore to let the length. It grew a gallows
- 1:52:43Speaker 7: and did bear our son. It bore thy fruit and mine,
- 1:52:46Speaker 7: Oh wicked wicked plant.
- 1:52:49Speaker 1: One knocks within at the door.
- 1:52:53Speaker 4: See who knocked there?
- 1:52:54Speaker 19: It is a painter.
- 1:52:55Speaker 7: Sir, bid him come in and paint some comfort, For
- 1:52:59Speaker 7: surely this is no lives but painted comfort. Let him
- 1:53:02Speaker 7: come in. One knows not what may chance God's will
- 1:53:07Speaker 7: that I should set this tree. But even so, Master's
- 1:53:11Speaker 7: ungrateful servants rear from naught, and then they hate them
- 1:53:14Speaker 7: that did bring them up Enter the painter.
- 1:53:17Speaker 12: God, bless you, sir.
- 1:53:19Speaker 7: Wherefore why thou scornful villain? How where or by what
- 1:53:24Speaker 7: means should I be blessed?
- 1:53:26Speaker 8: What wouldst thou have, good fellow justice, Madam?
- 1:53:31Speaker 7: Oh, ambitious beggar? Wouldst thou have that that lives not
- 1:53:35Speaker 7: in the world? Why all the undealt minds cannot buy
- 1:53:38Speaker 7: an ounce of justice? Tis a jewel so inestimable. I
- 1:53:43Speaker 7: tell thee God hath engrossed all justice in his hands,
- 1:53:47Speaker 7: and there is none but what comes from him.
- 1:53:51Speaker 12: Oh, then I see that God must right me for
- 1:53:54Speaker 12: my murdered son.
- 1:53:56Speaker 7: How was thy son murdered?
- 1:53:58Speaker 12: Ay, sir? No man did hold his son?
- 1:54:01Speaker 8: So dear what not as thine?
- 1:54:05Speaker 7: That's a lie, as massy as the earth. I had
- 1:54:08Speaker 7: a son whose least unvalued hair did weigh a thousand
- 1:54:11Speaker 7: of thy sons, and he was murdered.
- 1:54:14Speaker 12: Alas, Sir, I had no more than he.
- 1:54:18Speaker 7: Nor I But this same one of mine was worth
- 1:54:20Speaker 7: a legion. But all is one. Pedro Jacui's go in
- 1:54:25Speaker 7: a doors, Isabella, go and this good fellow here, and
- 1:54:29Speaker 7: I will range this hideous orchard up and down, like
- 1:54:32Speaker 7: to two lions wreathed of their young. Go in a doors, I.
- 1:54:36Speaker 1: Say, accient the painter, and he sits down.
- 1:54:41Speaker 7: Come, let's talk wisely?
- 1:54:43Speaker 19: Now?
- 1:54:44Speaker 7: Was thy son murdered?
- 1:54:45Speaker 12: Ay, sir, so is mine?
- 1:54:49Speaker 7: How dost take it that thou not sometimes mad? Is
- 1:54:53Speaker 7: there no tricks that comes before thine eyes? O?
- 1:54:56Speaker 12: Lord? Yes, sir.
- 1:54:58Speaker 7: Not a painter canst paint me a tear or a wound,
- 1:55:02Speaker 7: a groan or a sigh. Can'st paint me such a
- 1:55:05Speaker 7: tree as this?
- 1:55:06Speaker 12: Sir? I'm sure you have heard my painting.
- 1:55:10Speaker 8: My name's Bizardo Bazardo.
- 1:55:13Speaker 7: A fore God an excellent fellow. Look you, sir, do
- 1:55:16Speaker 7: you see? I'd have you paint me for my gallery,
- 1:55:20Speaker 7: and your oil colors matted and draw me five years
- 1:55:22Speaker 7: younger than I am? Do you see, sir? Let five
- 1:55:25Speaker 7: years go? Let them go, like the marshal of Spain.
- 1:55:30Speaker 7: My wife Isabella standing by me with a speaking look
- 1:55:33Speaker 7: to my son Horatio, which should intend to this or
- 1:55:37Speaker 7: some such like purpose. God bless thee my sweet son,
- 1:55:42Speaker 7: and my hand leaning upon his head. Thus, sir, do
- 1:55:45Speaker 7: you see?
- 1:55:46Speaker 5: May it be done very well?
- 1:55:48Speaker 12: Sir?

- 1:55:53Speaker 7: you paint me this tree, this very tree, canst paint
- 1:55:57Speaker 7: a doleful crymly, sir? Nay it should cry, but all
- 1:56:03Speaker 7: is one? Will sir, paint me a youth run through
- 1:56:06Speaker 7: and through with villain's swords hanging upon this tree? Canst
- 1:56:09Speaker 7: thou draw a murderer?
- 1:56:11Speaker 12: I'll warrant you, sir, I have the pattern of the
- 1:56:14Speaker 12: most notorious villains that ever lived in old Spain.
- 1:56:19Speaker 7: Oh, let them be worse, worse, stretch thine art, and
- 1:56:22Speaker 7: that their beards be of judas his own color, and
- 1:56:25Speaker 7: that their eyebrows jutty over. In any case, observe that, then, sir,

- 1:56:40Speaker 7: these words? What noise is this? Who calls here on him?
- 1:56:43Speaker 4: All?

- 1:56:46Speaker 12: Ye, sir?
- 1:56:47Speaker 7: Well, sir, then bring me forth, Bring me through alley
- 1:56:51Speaker 7: and alley still, with the distracted countenance going along, And
- 1:56:54Speaker 7: that my hair heave up my night cap. Let the
- 1:56:57Speaker 7: clouds scowl, make the moon dark, the stars extinct, the
- 1:57:01Speaker 7: wind's blowing the bells tolling, the owls shrieking, the toads croaking,
- 1:57:05Speaker 7: the minutes jarring, and the clock striking twelve. And then
- 1:57:09Speaker 7: at last, sir, starting, behold a man hanging and tottering
- 1:57:14Speaker 7: and tottering, as you know the wind will wave a man,
- 1:57:18Speaker 7: and I with a trice to cut him down, and
- 1:57:20Speaker 7: looking upon him, by the advantage of my torch, find
- 1:57:24Speaker 7: it to be my son, Horatio. There may you show
- 1:57:29Speaker 7: a passion. There you may show a passion. Draw me
- 1:57:33Speaker 7: like old Priam of Troy, crying the house is a fire.
- 1:57:36Speaker 7: The house is a fire, as the torch over my head.
- 1:57:40Speaker 7: Make me curse, make me rave, make me cry, make
- 1:57:42Speaker 7: me mad, make me well again, make me curse hell,
- 1:57:45Speaker 7: invocate heaven, and in the end leave me in a trance,
- 1:57:50Speaker 7: and so forth.
- 1:57:51Speaker 12: And is this the end?
- 1:57:53Speaker 11: Oh?
- 1:57:53Speaker 7: No, there is no end. The end is death and madness.
- 1:57:58Speaker 7: As I am never better than when I am mad,
- 1:58:01Speaker 7: then methinks I am a brave fellow. Then I do wonders,
- 1:58:06Speaker 7: But reason abuseth me. And there's the torment, there's the hell.
- 1:58:10Speaker 7: At the last, sir, bring me to one of the murderers.
- 1:58:14Speaker 7: Were he as strong as Hector, thus would I tear
- 1:58:17Speaker 7: and drag him up and down.
- 1:58:20Speaker 1: He beats the painter in, then comes out again with
- 1:58:23Speaker 1: a book in his hand. Scene thirteen. Enter Hieronimah with
- 1:58:28Speaker 1: a book in his hand.
- 1:58:30Speaker 7: Win dicta mihi ay, heaven will be revenged of every ill,
- 1:58:35Speaker 7: nor will they suffer murder unrepaid. Then stay hi ernimou
- 1:58:39Speaker 7: attend their will, for mortal men may not appoint their time.
- 1:58:44Speaker 7: Perslis sempertutem est chili ribus eater, strike and strike home
- 1:58:51Speaker 7: where wrong is offered, thee for evils unto ills conductors
- 1:58:56Speaker 7: be and death's the worst of resolution that thanks with
- 1:59:00Speaker 7: patience to contend to quiet life, his life shall easily end.
- 1:59:06Speaker 7: Fatasi misorros yuvant harbez salutem fata see wheatum nej aunt
- 1:59:15Speaker 7: harbez sepulcrum. If destiny thy miseries do ease, then hast
- 1:59:21Speaker 7: thou health and happy thou shalt be. If destiny deny
- 1:59:25Speaker 7: thee life heeronymo, yet shalt thou be assured of a tomb.
- 1:59:30Speaker 7: If neither yet, let this thy comfort be, heaven covereth
- 1:59:34Speaker 7: him that hath no burial. And to conclude, I will
- 1:59:38Speaker 7: revenge his death. But how not as the vulgar wits
- 1:59:42Speaker 7: of men with open but inevitable ills, as by a
- 1:59:45Speaker 7: secret yet a certain mean, which under kinship will be cloaked.
- 1:59:49Speaker 7: Best wise men will take their opportunity closely and safely,
- 1:59:54Speaker 7: fitting things to time, But in extremes advantage hath no time,
- 2:00:00Speaker 7: and therefore all times fit not for revenge. Thus therefore
- 2:00:04Speaker 7: will I rest me in unrest, dissembling, quiet, in unquietness,
- 2:00:09Speaker 7: not seeming that I know their villainies, that my simplicity
- 2:00:12Speaker 7: may make them think that ignorantly I will let all
- 2:00:16Speaker 7: slip for ignorance, I WoT and well they know remedium
- 2:00:21Speaker 7: mellorum in nurse est nor aught avails at me to
- 2:00:25Speaker 7: menace them, who, as a wintry storm upon a plain,
- 2:00:28Speaker 7: will bear me down with their nobility. No, no herony, Mo,
- 2:00:33Speaker 7: Thou must enjoin thine eyes to observation, and thy tongue
- 2:00:36Speaker 7: to milder speeches than thy spirit affords, Thy heart to patience,
- 2:00:41Speaker 7: and thy hands to rest, thy cap to courtesy, and
- 2:00:45Speaker 7: thy knee to bow till to revenge.
- 2:00:48Speaker 1: Thou know when where and how a noise within?
- 2:00:54Speaker 7: How now?
- 2:00:54Speaker 9: What noise?
- 2:00:55Speaker 7: What coil is that you keep?
- 2:00:58Speaker 1: Enter a servant.
- 2:01:00Speaker 23: There are a sort of poor petitioners that are importunate,
- 2:01:04Speaker 23: and it shall please you, sir, that you should plead
- 2:01:06Speaker 23: their cases to the King.
- 2:01:08Speaker 7: That I should plead their several actions. Well, let them enter,
- 2:01:11Speaker 7: and let me see them enter.
- 2:01:13Speaker 1: Three citizens and an old man sue.
- 2:01:16Speaker 12: I tell you this for learning and for law. There
- 2:01:19Speaker 12: is not any advocate in Spain that can prevail or
- 2:01:22Speaker 12: will take half the pain that he will in pursuit
- 2:01:25Speaker 12: of equity.
- 2:01:27Speaker 7: Come near, you, men that thus importune me aside. Now
- 2:01:31Speaker 7: must I bear a face of gravity? For thus I
- 2:01:34Speaker 7: used before my mascleship to plead in causes as corregador.
- 2:01:38Speaker 7: Come on, sirs, what's the matter, sir?
- 2:01:41Speaker 9: An action of battery, mine of debt?
- 2:01:45Speaker 7: Give place?
- 2:01:47Speaker 5: No, sir, mine is an action of the case, mine ejection?
- 2:01:54Speaker 7: Content you, sirs? Are you determined that I should plead
- 2:01:56Speaker 7: your several actions?
- 2:01:58Speaker 5: Ay, sir, And here declaration, and here's my band, and
- 2:02:03Speaker 5: here's my lace.
- 2:02:04Speaker 1: They give him papers.
- 2:02:06Speaker 7: But wherefore stands yon, silly man, so mute, with mournful
- 2:02:10Speaker 7: eyes and hands to heaven, upreared, come here the father.
- 2:02:13Speaker 5: Let me know thy cause, Oh worthy, sir, my cause
- 2:02:17Speaker 5: but slightly known may move the hearts of warlike miramadons,
- 2:02:24Speaker 5: and melt the corsic rocks with rueful tears.
- 2:02:29Speaker 7: Say, father, tell me what's thy suit?
- 2:02:32Speaker 5: No, sir, could my woes give way unto my most
- 2:02:37Speaker 5: distressful words? Then should I not in paper as you
- 2:02:42Speaker 5: see with ink bewray? What blood began in me?
- 2:02:48Speaker 7: What's here? The humble supplication of Don bozzolto for his
- 2:02:52Speaker 7: murdered son, I sir, No, sir, it was my murdered son. Oh,
- 2:02:57Speaker 7: my son, my son, Oh my son, Horatio, but mine
- 2:03:01Speaker 7: or thine bosolto be content. Here, take my hand kerchief
- 2:03:06Speaker 7: and wipe thine eyes whilst wretched I in thy mishaps,
- 2:03:09Speaker 7: may see the lively portrait of my dying self.
- 2:03:12Speaker 1: He drieth out a bloody napkin.
- 2:03:15Speaker 7: Oh no, not this, Horatio, This was thine, and when
- 2:03:20Speaker 7: I died it in thy dearest blood. This was a
- 2:03:22Speaker 7: token TwixT thy soul and me, that of thy death revenged.
- 2:03:25Speaker 7: I should be. But here take this and this what
- 2:03:29Speaker 7: my purse? I? This and that and all of them
- 2:03:32Speaker 7: are thine for all as one are our extremities.
- 2:03:36Speaker 12: Oh see the kindness of Hiddonymo.
- 2:03:39Speaker 5: This gentleness shows him a gentleman.
- 2:03:43Speaker 7: See see oh, see thy shame, Hieronimo. See here a
- 2:03:47Speaker 7: loving father to his son. Behold the sorrows and the
- 2:03:50Speaker 7: sad laments that he delivereth for his son's decease. If
- 2:03:54Speaker 7: love's affects so strive and lesser things, If love and
- 2:03:58Speaker 7: for such moods and meaner wits, If love express such
- 2:04:01Speaker 7: power in poorer estates, Hi Ronimou, when as a raging
- 2:04:06Speaker 7: sea tossed with the wind and tide overturneth, then the
- 2:04:09Speaker 7: upper billow's course of waves to keep, whilst lesser water's
- 2:04:13Speaker 7: labor in the deep. Then shemest thou nought Hironimo to
- 2:04:16Speaker 7: neglect the sweet revenge of thy Horatio, though on this
- 2:04:20Speaker 7: earth justice will not be found. Al boun to Hell,
- 2:04:24Speaker 7: and in this passion knock at the dismal gaits of
- 2:04:26Speaker 7: Pluto's court, getting by force, as once Alcaydes did a
- 2:04:30Speaker 7: troop of furies and tormenting hags to torture Don Lorenzo
- 2:04:34Speaker 7: and the rest. Yet, lest the triple headed porter should
- 2:04:37Speaker 7: deny my passage to the slimy strand the Thracian poet,
- 2:04:41Speaker 7: thou shalt counterfeit. Come on, old father, be my Orpheus,
- 2:04:45Speaker 7: and if thou canst no notes upon the harp, then
- 2:04:48Speaker 7: sound the burden of thy sore heart's grief till we
- 2:04:51Speaker 7: do gain that Proserpine may grant revenge on them that
- 2:04:55Speaker 7: murdered my son. Then will I rent and tear them thus,
- 2:04:58Speaker 7: and thus bring their limbs and pieces with my teeth.
- 2:05:02Speaker 1: Tears the papers, Oh sir, my declaration, Exit Hieronimo, and
- 2:05:09Speaker 1: they after save my bond, enter Hieronimo, save my bond.
- 2:05:16Speaker 14: All laugh, my lise. It cost me ten pound, and you,
- 2:05:20Speaker 14: my lord, have torn the.
- 2:05:21Speaker 7: Same that cannot be I gave it, never a wound.
- 2:05:25Speaker 7: Show me one drop of blood fall from the same.
- 2:05:28Speaker 7: How is it possible I should slay it? Then tush
- 2:05:31Speaker 7: no run after catch me if you can.
- 2:05:34Speaker 1: Acient all but the old man Basulto remains till Hreranimo
- 2:05:38Speaker 1: enters again, who's staring him in the face, speaks, and that.
- 2:05:43Speaker 7: Thou come Harasio from the death to ask for justice
- 2:05:46Speaker 7: in this upper earth, to tell thy father thou art unrevenged.
- 2:05:51Speaker 7: To wring more tears from Isabella's eyes, whose lights are
- 2:05:54Speaker 7: dimmed with over long laments. Go back, my son, complain
- 2:05:59Speaker 7: to Acus, for here is no justice, gentle boy, begone,
- 2:06:03Speaker 7: for justice is exited from the earth. Hieronimo will bear
- 2:06:08Speaker 7: thee company. Thy mother cries on righteous radamant for just
- 2:06:12Speaker 7: revenge against the murderers.
- 2:06:14Speaker 5: Alas, my lord, what springs this troubled speech?
- 2:06:19Speaker 7: But let me look on my Horatio, sweet boy, how
- 2:06:23Speaker 7: art thou changed in death's black shade, had proserpine no
- 2:06:27Speaker 7: pity on thy youth, but suffered thy fair crimson colored
- 2:06:30Speaker 7: spring with withered winter to be blasted. Thus, Horatio, Thou
- 2:06:35Speaker 7: art older than thy father, ah ruthless fate that favor
- 2:06:39Speaker 7: thus transforms.
- 2:06:41Speaker 5: Ah, my good Lord, I am not your young son.
- 2:06:46Speaker 7: What not my son? Thou than a furyat sent from
- 2:06:50Speaker 7: the empty kingdom of black Knight to summon me to
- 2:06:52Speaker 7: make appearance before grim minos and just rhadamant to plague
- 2:06:57Speaker 7: Hieronimo that is remiss and seeks not vengeance for Horatio's death.
- 2:07:02Speaker 5: I am a grieved man and not a ghost that
- 2:07:06Speaker 5: came for justice for my murdered son.
- 2:07:11Speaker 7: Ay, now I know thee. Now thou namest thy son.
- 2:07:15Speaker 7: Thou art the lively image of my grief within thy
- 2:07:18Speaker 7: face my sorrows, I may see thy eyes are gumed
- 2:07:21Speaker 7: with tears. Thy cheeks are wan, thy forehead troubled, and
- 2:07:25Speaker 7: thy muttering lips murmur sad words abruptly broken off by
- 2:07:30Speaker 7: force of windy sighs. Thy spirit breathes, and all this
- 2:07:33Speaker 7: sorrow riseth for thy son and self same sorrow feel
- 2:07:37Speaker 7: I for my son. Come in, old man, Thou shalt
- 2:07:41Speaker 7: to Isabel lean on my arm, I thee thou me
- 2:07:46Speaker 7: shalt stay, and thou and I and she will sing
- 2:07:49Speaker 7: a song three parts in one, but all of discords framed.
- 2:07:54Speaker 7: Talk not of chords. But let us now be gone,
- 2:07:57Speaker 7: for with the chord Horatio was slain.
- 2:08:02Speaker 1: Scene fourteen. Enter King of Spain, the Duke Viceroy and

- 2:09:50Speaker 22: how strangely heaven hath THEE preserv'd.
- 2:09:53Speaker 4: See brother, see how nature strives in him, come worthy,

- 2:10:40Speaker 10: and this is the day that I have longed so
- 2:10:42Speaker 10: happily to see Thou.
- 2:10:43Speaker 6: Wouldst be load that any vote of thine should intercept
- 2:10:47Speaker 6: her in her happiness?
- 2:10:48Speaker 10: Heavens will not let Lorenzo air so much?
- 2:10:52Speaker 6: Why then, Lorenzo, listen to my words. It is suspected
- 2:10:57Speaker 6: and reported do that thou Lorenzo wrongest Hieronimo, and in
- 2:11:02Speaker 6: his suits towards his majesties two keep'st him back and
- 2:11:05Speaker 6: seek'st to cross his suit. That I, my Lord, I
- 2:11:10Speaker 6: tell thee son myself have heard it said, when to
- 2:11:14Speaker 6: my sorrow, I have been ashamed to answer for THEE.
- 2:11:17Speaker 6: Though thou art my son, Lorenzo, nurst thou not the
- 2:11:22Speaker 6: common love and kindness that Eroonimo hath won by his
- 2:11:26Speaker 6: deserts within the court of Spain. Or seest thou not
- 2:11:30Speaker 6: the king my brother's care in his behalf and to
- 2:11:33Speaker 6: procure his health? Lorenzo should thou thwart his passions, and
- 2:11:40Speaker 6: he exclaim against THEE to the king, what honor wort
- 2:11:43Speaker 6: in this assembly? Or what a scandal wort among the kings?
- 2:11:47Speaker 6: To hear honmor exclaim on THEE? Tell me, and look
- 2:11:52Speaker 6: thou tell me truly too. Whence grows the ground of
- 2:11:56Speaker 6: this report in court, my.
- 2:11:58Speaker 10: Lord, it lies not in lorene Zo's power to stop
- 2:12:01Speaker 10: the vulgar liberal of their tongue. A small advantage makes
- 2:12:04Speaker 10: a water breach, and no man lives that long contenteth All.
- 2:12:08Speaker 6: Myself have seen me busy to keep back him and
- 2:12:11Speaker 6: his supplications from the king.
- 2:12:14Speaker 10: Yourself, my lord, had seen his passions that ill beseemed
- 2:12:17Speaker 10: the presence of a king, And for I pity to
- 2:12:19Speaker 10: him in his distress, I held him thence with kind
- 2:12:22Speaker 10: and courteous words, as free from malice to Hieronimo as
- 2:12:26Speaker 10: to my soul.
- 2:12:26Speaker 12: My Lord, Hieronimo, my son mistakes thee, then.
- 2:12:31Speaker 10: My gracious father believe me, so he doth. But what's
- 2:12:33Speaker 10: a silly man distract in mind to think upon the
- 2:12:36Speaker 10: murder of his son alas how easy is it for
- 2:12:39Speaker 10: him to err? But for his satisfaction and the world's
- 2:12:42Speaker 10: tow are good, my Lord, that Hieronimo and I were reconciled.
- 2:12:46Speaker 12: If he misconster me, Lorenzo, thou hast said it shall
- 2:12:50Speaker 12: be so he're what of you, and call Hieronimo.
- 2:12:54Speaker 1: Enter Balthazar and bel Imperia.
- 2:12:57Speaker 8: Come bel Imperia, Balthasar's content, my sorrow's ease, and sovereign
- 2:13:03Speaker 8: of my bliss sith Heaven hath ordained thee to be mine.
- 2:13:06Speaker 8: Disperse those clouds and melancholy looks, and clear them up
- 2:13:10Speaker 8: with those thy, sun bright eyes, wherein my hope and
- 2:13:14Speaker 8: Heaven's fair beauty lies.
- 2:13:16Speaker 15: My looks, my Lord, are fitting for my love, which
- 2:13:20Speaker 15: new begun can show no brighter yet.
- 2:13:23Speaker 8: New kindled flames should burn as morning sun, but not.
- 2:13:27Speaker 15: Too fast, least heat and all be done.
- 2:13:31Speaker 8: I see, my Lord, my father, truth, my love I'll
- 2:13:35Speaker 8: go salute him.
- 2:13:36Speaker 12: Welcome Baltazzah, Welcome bray Prince, the pledge of Castile's peace.
- 2:13:42Speaker 12: And welcome bel Imperia. How now, girl, why comest thou
- 2:13:48Speaker 12: sadly to salute us thus condemned thyself? For I am satisfied.
- 2:13:54Speaker 12: It is not now as when Andrea lived. We are
- 2:13:57Speaker 12: forgotten and forgiven that, and thou graced with a happier love.
- 2:14:02Speaker 12: But Baltazar, here comes Hieronimo. I'll have a word with him.
- 2:14:07Speaker 1: Enter Hieronimo, and a servant.
- 2:14:10Speaker 7: And where's the Duke yonder Ivenzo. What new device have
- 2:14:15Speaker 7: they devised? Trao pocasplabra smiled as a lamb?
- 2:14:19Speaker 12: Is it?
- 2:14:19Speaker 7: I will be revenged. No, I am not the man.
- 2:14:23Speaker 12: Welcome Hieronimo.
- 2:14:25Speaker 10: Welcome Hieranimo.
- 2:14:26Speaker 8: Welcome Hieronimo.
- 2:14:28Speaker 7: My lords, I thank you for Harasio, Hieronimo.
- 2:14:32Speaker 12: The reason that I sent to speak with you?
- 2:14:34Speaker 11: Is this?
- 2:14:35Speaker 7: What so short? Then I'll be gone, I thank you
- 2:14:38Speaker 7: for it.
- 2:14:39Speaker 12: Nay, stay here, Onimo, go call him son, Hieronimo, my father.
- 2:14:45Speaker 7: Craig's a word with you with me, sir, Why, my lord,
- 2:14:48Speaker 7: I thought you had done now aside what.
- 2:14:52Speaker 12: He had Hieronimo, I hear you find yourself aggrieved at
- 2:14:56Speaker 12: my son because you have not access under the king,
- 2:15:00Speaker 12: and say it is he that intercepts your suits.
- 2:15:03Speaker 7: Why is not this a miserable thing?
- 2:15:05Speaker 6: My Lord Heronimo, I hope you have no cause, and
- 2:15:09Speaker 6: would be loathed that one of your deserts should once
- 2:15:12Speaker 6: have reason to suspect my son, considering how I think
- 2:15:15Speaker 6: of you myself, your.
- 2:15:17Speaker 7: Son Lorenzo, oh, my noble lord, the hope of Spain,
- 2:15:22Speaker 7: myn honorable friend, grant me the combat of them.
- 2:15:25Speaker 1: If they dare draws out his sword, I'll.
- 2:15:28Speaker 7: Meet him face to face to tell me. So these
- 2:15:31Speaker 7: be the scandalous reports of such as love not me
- 2:15:34Speaker 7: and hate my lord too much? Should I suspect Lorenzo
- 2:15:38Speaker 7: or prevent a cross my suit that loved my son
- 2:15:41Speaker 7: so well? My Lord? I am ashamed, it should be.
- 2:15:44Speaker 10: Said, Hieronimo, I never gave you cause.
- 2:15:47Speaker 7: My good lord, I know you did not.
- 2:15:51Speaker 12: There then pause, and for the satisfaction of the world,
- 2:15:54Speaker 12: Heronimo frequent my Hermley house, the Duke of Castile, SIPRI's
- 2:16:00Speaker 12: ancient seat. And when thou wilt use me my son
- 2:16:04Speaker 12: and it but here before Prince Baltazar and me embrace
- 2:16:09Speaker 12: each other and be perfect friends.
- 2:16:13Speaker 7: I marry my lord and shall friends, quoth he see,
- 2:16:18Speaker 7: I'll be friends with you all, especially with you, my
- 2:16:21Speaker 7: lovely lord, for diverse causes. It is fit for us
- 2:16:24Speaker 7: that we be friends the world suspicious, and men may
- 2:16:28Speaker 7: think what we imagine.
- 2:16:29Speaker 8: Not why this is friendly?
- 2:16:32Speaker 10: Done hieronimo, and that I hope, Oh the grudges are forgot?
- 2:16:36Speaker 7: What else it were a shame, it would not be so.
- 2:16:40Speaker 12: Come on here on the mow with my request. Let
- 2:16:43Speaker 12: us entreat your company to day.

- 2:17:15Speaker 26: combat Agiron and Erebus for ne'er by Styx and flaggethon
- 2:17:21Speaker 26: in Hell or varied Kron to the Fiery Lake. Such
- 2:17:26Speaker 26: fearful sights as poor Andrea sees.
- 2:17:31Speaker 27: Revenge awake awake for why awake revenge for thou art
- 2:17:39Speaker 27: Ill advisedt to sleep awake what them art want to.
- 2:17:45Speaker 3: Watch content thyself, and do not trouble me.
- 2:17:50Speaker 2: Awake revenge if love, as love hath had have yet
- 2:17:55Speaker 2: the power of prevalence in hell, Hieronymore with loren So,
- 2:18:00Speaker 2: is joined in league and intercepts our passage to revenge.
- 2:18:06Speaker 2: Awake revenge, or we are woe begone.
- 2:18:11Speaker 3: Thus world things ground what they have dreamed upon. Content thyself, Andrea,
- 2:18:18Speaker 3: though I sleep yet is my mood soliciting their souls,
- 2:18:22Speaker 3: sufficeth thee that poor Hieronimo cannot forget his son Horatio,
- 2:18:28Speaker 3: nor dies revenge although he sleep awhile for an unquiet
- 2:18:33Speaker 3: quietness is faint, and slumbering is a commonwealthy. While behold
- 2:18:39Speaker 3: Andrea for an instance, how revenge hath slept? And then
- 2:18:44Speaker 3: imagine now what tis to be subject to destiny?
- 2:18:49Speaker 2: Enter a dumb show, awake revenge, reveal this mystery.
- 2:18:56Speaker 22: Hello the two.
- 2:18:58Speaker 3: First the nuptial tore torches bore as brightly burning as
- 2:19:02Speaker 3: the midday sun. But after them the hymen high as fast,
- 2:19:08Speaker 3: clothed in sable and a saffron robe, and blows them
- 2:19:12Speaker 3: out and quenchest them with blood. As discontent that things continue.
- 2:19:17Speaker 2: So suffice as me thy meanings understood, and thanks to
- 2:19:25Speaker 2: THEE and those infernal powers that will not tolerate a
- 2:19:30Speaker 2: lover's woe, rest THEE. But I will sit to see
- 2:19:37Speaker 2: the rest.
- 2:19:39Speaker 3: Then argue not for thou hast thy request accient?
- 2:19:44Speaker 1: And of Act three, Act four, Scene one, enter bel
- 2:19:51Speaker 1: Imperia and Hieronimo.
- 2:19:53Speaker 15: Is this the love thou bearest, Horatio? Is this the
- 2:19:57Speaker 15: kindness that thou counterfeits? Are these the fruits of thine
- 2:20:02Speaker 15: incessant tears, Hieronimo? Are these thy passions, thy protestations, and
- 2:20:09Speaker 15: thy deep laments that thou wert wont to weary men
- 2:20:14Speaker 15: withal O unkind father, O deceitful world? With what excuses
- 2:20:21Speaker 15: canst thou show thyself from this dishonor and the hate
- 2:20:26Speaker 15: of men? Thus to neglect the loss and life of
- 2:20:30Speaker 15: him whom both my letters and thine own belief assures
- 2:20:35Speaker 15: THEE to be causeless slaughtered Hieronimo, for shame, Hieronimo, be
- 2:20:41Speaker 15: not a history to after times of such ingratitude, unto
- 2:20:47Speaker 15: thy son, unhappy mothers of such children, then, but monstrous
- 2:20:53Speaker 15: fathers to forget so soon the death of those whom they,
- 2:20:58Speaker 15: with care and cost have tendered, so thus careless should
- 2:21:03Speaker 15: be lost myself a stranger in respect of thee so
- 2:21:08Speaker 15: loved his life, as still I wish their deaths. Nor
- 2:21:12Speaker 15: shall his death be unrevenged by me, although I bear
- 2:21:16Speaker 15: it out for fashion's sake. For here I swear in
- 2:21:21Speaker 15: sight of Heaven and Earth, shouldst thou neglect the love?
- 2:21:25Speaker 15: Thou shouldst retain and give it over and devise no
- 2:21:29Speaker 15: more myself should send their hateful souls to Hell that
- 2:21:35Speaker 15: wrought his downfall with extremest death.
- 2:21:39Speaker 7: But may it be that bel Imperia vows such revenge
- 2:21:42Speaker 7: as she hath deigned to say? Why then I see
- 2:21:45Speaker 7: that heern applies our drift, and all the saints do
- 2:21:48Speaker 7: sit solictening for vengeance on those cursed murderers, Madam, tis true,
- 2:21:54Speaker 7: and now I find it. So I found a letter
- 2:21:57Speaker 7: written in your name, and in that letter how Horatio died. Pardon, oh,
- 2:22:03Speaker 7: pardon bell Imperia, my fear and care in not believing it,
- 2:22:07Speaker 7: nor think I thoughtless think upon a mien to let
- 2:22:10Speaker 7: his death be unrevenged at full. And here I vow
- 2:22:14Speaker 7: so you but give consent and will conceal my resolution.
- 2:22:18Speaker 7: I will ere long determine of their deaths that causeless.
- 2:22:22Speaker 7: Thus have murdered my.
- 2:22:23Speaker 15: Son, Hieronimo, I will consent, conceal and aught that may
- 2:22:29Speaker 15: effect far thine avail, join with thee to revenge Horatio's death.
- 2:22:35Speaker 7: On then, in whatsoever I devise, let me entreat you
- 2:22:39Speaker 7: grace my practices. For why the plot's already in mine head.
- 2:22:44Speaker 1: Here they are and her Balthizar and Lorenzo.
- 2:22:48Speaker 8: How now, Hieronimo, what courting bel imperia, Ay.
- 2:22:52Speaker 7: My lord, such courting as I promise you, she hath
- 2:22:56Speaker 7: my heart, But you, my lord, have hers, But no.
- 2:23:00Speaker 10: Al Hieronimo, or never we are to entreat your.
- 2:23:02Speaker 7: Help, my help. Why, my good lords, assure yourselves of me,
- 2:23:07Speaker 7: for you have given me cause I by my faith.
- 2:23:10Speaker 8: Have you it pleased you at the entertainment of the
- 2:23:13Speaker 8: ambassador to grace the king so much as with a show?
- 2:23:16Speaker 8: Now were your study so well furnished as for the
- 2:23:20Speaker 8: passing of the first night's sport, to entertain my father
- 2:23:23Speaker 8: with the like or any such like pleasing motion, assure
- 2:23:27Speaker 8: yourself it would content them?
- 2:23:28Speaker 12: Well?
- 2:23:29Speaker 7: Is this all? I?
- 2:23:31Speaker 19: This is all?
- 2:23:32Speaker 7: Why then I'll fit you say no more. When I
- 2:23:36Speaker 7: was young I gave my mind, and I plied myself
- 2:23:38Speaker 7: to fruitless poetry, which, though it profit the professor, not
- 2:23:42Speaker 7: yet is it passing pleasing to the world?
- 2:23:44Speaker 9: And how for that?
- 2:23:46Speaker 7: Marry my good lord? Thus, and yet methinks you are
- 2:23:49Speaker 7: too quick with us. When in Toledo, there I studied,
- 2:23:53Speaker 7: it was my chance to write a tragedy. See here,
- 2:23:56Speaker 7: my lords, he shows them a book which long forgot
- 2:24:00Speaker 7: I found this other day. Now, would your lordships favor
- 2:24:03Speaker 7: me so much as but to grace me with your
- 2:24:05Speaker 7: acting it? I mean each one of you to play
- 2:24:08Speaker 7: a part. Assure you it will prove most passing, strange
- 2:24:12Speaker 7: and wondrous plausible to that assembly.
- 2:24:14Speaker 8: What would you have us play a tragedy?
- 2:24:17Speaker 7: Why? Nero thought it no disparagement? And kings and emperors
- 2:24:20Speaker 7: have tay and delight to make experience of their wits
- 2:24:23Speaker 7: and plays.
- 2:24:24Speaker 10: Nay, be not angry, good Hieronimo the Prince, but asked
- 2:24:28Speaker 10: the question.
- 2:24:29Speaker 8: In faith, Hieronimo, and you be in earnest. I'll make
- 2:24:33Speaker 8: one and I another.
- 2:24:35Speaker 7: Now, my good lord, could you entreat your sister bel
- 2:24:37Speaker 7: Imperia to make one? For what's a play without a
- 2:24:40Speaker 7: woman in it?
- 2:24:41Speaker 15: Little entreaty shall serve me Hieronimo, for I must needs
- 2:24:46Speaker 15: be employed in your play.
- 2:24:49Speaker 7: Why this is well, I tell you, Lordings. It was
- 2:24:52Speaker 7: determined to have been acted by gentlemen and scholars too,
- 2:24:56Speaker 7: such as could tell what to speak.
- 2:24:58Speaker 8: And now it shall be played by princes and courtiers,
- 2:25:01Speaker 8: such as can tell how to speak. If, as it
- 2:25:04Speaker 8: is our country manner, you will, but let us know
- 2:25:06Speaker 8: the argument.
- 2:25:08Speaker 7: That shall lie roundly. The chronicles of Spain record this
- 2:25:12Speaker 7: written of a Knight of Rhodes. He was betrothed and
- 2:25:15Speaker 7: wedded at the length to one Persada, an Italian dame
- 2:25:18Speaker 7: whose beauty ravished all that her beheld, especially the soul
- 2:25:22Speaker 7: of Soliman, who at the marriage was the chiefest guest.
- 2:25:28Speaker 7: By sundry means. Sought Soliman to win Perseda's love, and
- 2:25:32Speaker 7: could not gain the same. Then gan he brake his
- 2:25:35Speaker 7: passion to a friend, one of his bashaws, whom he
- 2:25:39Speaker 7: held full dear. Her had this bashaw long solicited, and
- 2:25:45Speaker 7: saw she was not otherwise to be won, but by
- 2:25:47Speaker 7: her husband's death. This Knight of Rhodes, whom presently by
- 2:25:51Speaker 7: a treachery he slew, she stirred with an exceeding hate. Therefore,
- 2:25:55Speaker 7: as cause of this slew Soliman and to escape the
- 2:25:59Speaker 7: bashas tere did stab herself. And this the tragedy, Oh excellent.
- 2:26:05Speaker 15: But say Hieronimo, what then became of him?
- 2:26:08Speaker 22: That was the barshal?
- 2:26:10Speaker 7: Mary thus moved, with remorse of his misdeeds, ran to
- 2:26:14Speaker 7: a mountain top and hung himself.
- 2:26:16Speaker 8: But which of us is to perform that part?
- 2:26:18Speaker 7: Oh, that will lie, my lords, make no doubt of it.
- 2:26:21Speaker 7: I'll play the murderer, I warrant you, for I already
- 2:26:24Speaker 7: have conceded that. And what shall I great Soliman the
- 2:26:28Speaker 7: Turkish Emperor, and I erast Us, the Knight of Rhodes,
- 2:26:33Speaker 7: And I persade chaste and resolute. And here, my lords,
- 2:26:38Speaker 7: are several abstracts drawn for each of you, to note
- 2:26:41Speaker 7: your parts and acted as occasions offered you. You must
- 2:26:45Speaker 7: provide a Turkish cap, a black mustachio, and a falcion.
- 2:26:50Speaker 1: Gives a paper to Balthazar, you with.
- 2:26:53Speaker 7: A cross like to a Knight of Rhodes.
- 2:26:55Speaker 1: Gives another to Lorenzo.
- 2:26:58Speaker 7: And Madam you must attie yourself.
- 2:27:01Speaker 1: He giveth bel Imperia another.
- 2:27:03Speaker 7: Like Phoebe Flora or the Huntress, which to your discretion
- 2:27:07Speaker 7: shall seem best. And as for me, my lords, I'll
- 2:27:11Speaker 7: look to one and with the ransom that the viceroy sent,
- 2:27:14Speaker 7: so furnish and perform this tragedy. As all the world
- 2:27:18Speaker 7: shall say. Hieronimo was liberal and gracing of it.
- 2:27:21Speaker 8: So Hieronimo methinks a comedy were better.
- 2:27:26Speaker 7: A comedy fie. Comedies are fit for common wits. But
- 2:27:30Speaker 7: to present a kingly troop withal, give me a stately
- 2:27:34Speaker 7: written tragedy tragadiaconnotata fitting kings, containing matter and not common things.
- 2:27:41Speaker 7: My lords, all this must be performed as fitting for
- 2:27:44Speaker 7: the first night's reveling. The Italian tragedians were so sharp
- 2:27:48Speaker 7: of wit that in one hour's meditation they would perform
- 2:27:52Speaker 7: anything in action.
- 2:27:53Speaker 10: And well it may, for I have seen the like
- 2:27:56Speaker 10: in Paris, amongst the French tragedians.
- 2:27:59Speaker 7: In Paris, Marus mass and well remembered. There's one thing
- 2:28:03Speaker 7: more that rests for us to do.
- 2:28:05Speaker 8: What's that, Hieronimo forget not anything.
- 2:28:08Speaker 7: Each one of us must act his part in unknown languages,
- 2:28:12Speaker 7: that it may breed the more variety as you, my lord,
- 2:28:15Speaker 7: in Latin, I in Greek, you an Italian. And for
- 2:28:19Speaker 7: because I know that bel Imperia hath practiced the French
- 2:28:22Speaker 7: in courtly French, shall all her phrases be?
- 2:28:26Speaker 15: You mean to try my coming, then, Hieronimo.
- 2:28:29Speaker 8: But this will be a mere confusion, and hardly shall
- 2:28:32Speaker 8: we all be understood.
- 2:28:34Speaker 7: It must be so, for the conclusion shall prove the invention,
- 2:28:37Speaker 7: and all was good. And I myself in an oration,
- 2:28:41Speaker 7: and with a strange and wondrous show. Besides that I
- 2:28:44Speaker 7: will have there behind a curtain. Assure yourself shall make
- 2:28:48Speaker 7: the matter known, and all shall be concluded in one scene.
- 2:28:51Speaker 7: For there's no pleasure tain in tediousness?
- 2:28:55Speaker 8: How like you this?
- 2:28:56Speaker 10: Why thus, my lord, we must resolve to soothe his
- 2:28:59Speaker 10: shoe up on.
- 2:29:01Speaker 8: Then, Hieronimo, farewell, till soon you'll ply the sker.
- 2:29:05Speaker 1: I warrant you acciant all.
- 2:29:08Speaker 7: But Hieronimo, why so now shall I see the fall
- 2:29:12Speaker 7: of Babylon wrought by the heavens, and this confusion? And
- 2:29:16Speaker 7: if the world like not this tragedy, hard is the
- 2:29:19Speaker 7: hap of old Hieronimo.
- 2:29:21Speaker 1: Except scene too, enter Isabella with a weapon.
- 2:29:27Speaker 18: Tell me no more home monstrous homicides. Since neither piety
- 2:29:32Speaker 18: nor pity moves the king to justice or compassion, I
- 2:29:36Speaker 18: will revenge myself upon this place where thus they murdered
- 2:29:40Speaker 18: my beloved son.
- 2:29:41Speaker 1: She cuts down the arbor.
- 2:29:44Speaker 7: Down with these.
- 2:29:44Speaker 18: Branches, and these loathsome boughs of this unfortunate and fatal pine.
- 2:29:50Speaker 18: Down with them, Isabella, rent them up and burn the roots,
- 2:29:53Speaker 18: from whence the rest is sprung. I will not leave
- 2:29:56Speaker 18: a root, a stalk, a tree, a bough, a branch,
- 2:30:00Speaker 18: a blossom, nor a leaf, No, not an herb within
- 2:30:04Speaker 18: this garden plot, a cursed complot of my misery fruitless.
- 2:30:10Speaker 18: Forever may this garden be barren the earth and blissless,
- 2:30:14Speaker 18: whosoe'er imagines not to keep it unminured. An eastern wind
- 2:30:19Speaker 18: commixed with noisome airs shall blast the plants and the
- 2:30:23Speaker 18: young saplings. The earth with serpents shall be pestered, and passengers,
- 2:30:28Speaker 18: for fear to be infect shall stand aloof and looking
- 2:30:32Speaker 18: at it. Tell there murdered died the son of Isabel.
- 2:30:39Speaker 18: Aye here he died, and here I him embrace, See
- 2:30:44Speaker 18: where his ghost solicits with his wounds, revenge on her
- 2:30:47Speaker 18: that should revenge his death. Hieronimo, make haste to see
- 2:30:53Speaker 18: thy son. For sorrow and despair, hath sighted me to
- 2:30:57Speaker 18: hear Horatio plead with radaman, make haste, Hieronimo, to hold
- 2:31:03Speaker 18: excused thy negligence in pursuit of their deaths, whose hateful
- 2:31:07Speaker 18: wrath bereaved him of his breath.
- 2:31:11Speaker 1: Ah, nay, thou dost.
- 2:31:12Speaker 18: Delay their deaths forgivest the murderers of thy noble son
- 2:31:17Speaker 18: and none.
- 2:31:18Speaker 1: But I be stir me to no end.
- 2:31:22Speaker 18: And as I curse this tree from further fruit, so
- 2:31:25Speaker 18: shall my wound be cursed for his sake. And with
- 2:31:29Speaker 18: this weapon will I wound the breast, the hapless breast
- 2:31:34Speaker 18: that gave Horatio suck.
- 2:31:37Speaker 1: She stabs herself. Scene three, Enter Hieronimo, He knocks up
- 2:31:42Speaker 1: the curtain. Enter the Duke of Castile.
- 2:31:46Speaker 12: Oh now, Euronimo, where's your fellows that you take oldish pain?
- 2:31:52Speaker 7: Oh sir, it is for the author's credit to look
- 2:31:54Speaker 7: that all things may go well. But good, my lord,
- 2:31:57Speaker 7: let me entreat your grace to give the king the
- 2:31:59Speaker 7: copy the play. This is the argument of what we show.
- 2:32:03Speaker 12: I will here Onnimo.
- 2:32:05Speaker 7: One thing more, my.
- 2:32:06Speaker 12: Good lord, what's that?
- 2:32:08Speaker 7: Let me entreat your grace that when the train are
- 2:32:10Speaker 7: passed into the gallery, you would vouchsafe to throw me
- 2:32:13Speaker 7: down the quay.
- 2:32:15Speaker 1: I will here Onimo exit Castile.
- 2:32:19Speaker 7: What are you ready, Balthazar, bring a chair and a cushion.
- 2:32:22Speaker 9: For the king.
- 2:32:23Speaker 1: Enter balthisar with a chair.
- 2:32:25Speaker 7: Well done, Balthazar, hang up the title. I'll scene as Rhodes.
- 2:32:30Speaker 7: What is your beard on?
- 2:32:32Speaker 8: Half on the other is in my hand?
- 2:32:35Speaker 7: Despatch for shame? Are you so long? Axept Balthasar, bethink
- 2:32:39Speaker 7: thyself here animo, recall thy wits, recount thy former wrongs.
- 2:32:44Speaker 7: Thou hast received by murder of thy son. And lastly,
- 2:32:49Speaker 7: not least, how Isabel wants his mother and thy dearest wife,
- 2:32:54Speaker 7: all woe be gone for him. Hath slain herself behooves thee.
- 2:32:59Speaker 7: Then Hereonimo to be revenged. The plot is laid of
- 2:33:02Speaker 7: dire revenge on Then Hieronimo pursue revenge for nothing wants
- 2:33:08Speaker 7: but acting of revenge excep Hieronimo.
- 2:33:13Speaker 1: Scene four, Enter Spanish King, Viceroy, the Duke of Castile
- 2:33:18Speaker 1: and their train.
- 2:33:20Speaker 4: Now viceroyal shall we see the tragedy of Solomon the
- 2:33:24Speaker 4: Turkish Emperor, performed of pleasure by your son the Prince,
- 2:33:28Speaker 4: my nephew Don Lorenzo, and my niece who bell Imperia
- 2:33:33Speaker 4: ay and Hieronimo, are marshal, at whose request they deigned
- 2:33:38Speaker 4: to dot themselves. These be our pastimes in the court
- 2:33:41Speaker 4: of Spain. Here, brother, you shall be the bookkeeper. This
- 2:33:45Speaker 4: is the argument of that they show he giveth him
- 2:33:49Speaker 4: a book, gentlemen. Display of Hieronimo in sundry languages was
- 2:33:55Speaker 4: thought gould to be set down in English, more largely
- 2:33:57Speaker 4: for the easier understanding to every republic reader.
- 2:34:02Speaker 1: Enter Balthazar, bel Imperia and Hieronimo.
- 2:34:06Speaker 8: Bashaw that Rhodes is ours yield Heaven's the honor and
- 2:34:10Speaker 8: Holy Mahomet, our sacred prophet. And be thou graced with
- 2:34:14Speaker 8: every excellence that Solomon can give, or thou desire, But
- 2:34:18Speaker 8: thy desert in conquering Rhodes is less than in reserving
- 2:34:22Speaker 8: this fair Christian Perseda, blissful lamp of excellence, whose eyes
- 2:34:27Speaker 8: compel like powerful adamant the warlike heart of Solomon to wait.
- 2:34:33Speaker 4: See by stroy that is Baltus or your son that
- 2:34:36Speaker 4: represents the Emperor Solomon. Oh wellly Axisamorus passion.
- 2:34:42Speaker 6: Hi ball Imperia hath taught him that that's because his
- 2:34:46Speaker 6: mind runs all along bill Imperia.
- 2:34:48Speaker 7: Whatever joy Earth yields, Betide your majesty.
- 2:34:52Speaker 8: Earth yields no joy without Perseda's love.
- 2:34:56Speaker 7: That then Perseda, on your grace attend.
- 2:34:59Speaker 8: She shall not wa eight on me, but I on her.
- 2:35:02Speaker 8: Drawn by the influence of her lights, I yield. But
- 2:35:06Speaker 8: let my friend, the Rodean Knight come forth. Erasto, dearer
- 2:35:10Speaker 8: than my life to me, that he may see Perseda
- 2:35:13Speaker 8: my beloved.
- 2:35:15Speaker 1: Enter Erasto.
- 2:35:17Speaker 4: Here comes Lorenzo. Look upon the plot and tell me, brother,
- 2:35:21Speaker 4: what part play he?
- 2:35:23Speaker 15: Ah, my Rasto, welcome to Persida.
- 2:35:27Speaker 13: Thrice happy is Erasto that thou lifts rose loss is
- 2:35:31Speaker 13: nothing to Erasto's joy. Sith his Perseda lives, his life survives.
- 2:35:38Speaker 8: Ah bashaw here is love between Erasto and fair Perseda.
- 2:35:43Speaker 7: Sovereign of my soul, Remove Erasto, mighty Solimen, and then
- 2:35:47Speaker 7: Perseda will be quickly won.
- 2:35:49Speaker 8: Erasto is my friend, and while he lives, Perseda never
- 2:35:53Speaker 8: will remove her love.
- 2:35:55Speaker 7: Let not Erasto live to grieve.
- 2:35:57Speaker 8: Great Solomon is Erasto in our princely eye.
- 2:36:02Speaker 7: But if he be your rival, let him die?
- 2:36:05Speaker 8: Why let him die? So love commandeth me yet grieve
- 2:36:10Speaker 8: I that Erasto should so die.
- 2:36:12Speaker 7: Erasto soleb and saluteth thee, and lets thee wit by
- 2:36:17Speaker 7: me his highness will, which is it thou shouldest be
- 2:36:20Speaker 7: thus employed, stabs him.
- 2:36:23Speaker 15: A me Erasto see Soliman Eresto's slain.
- 2:36:28Speaker 8: Yet liveth Solomon to comfort thee, fair queen of beauty,
- 2:36:32Speaker 8: let not favor die, but with a gracious eye behold
- 2:36:36Speaker 8: his grief, that with Persado's beauty is increased. If by
- 2:36:40Speaker 8: Persada his grief be not released.
- 2:36:44Speaker 15: Tyrant desist soliciting vain suits. Relentless are mine ears to
- 2:36:49Speaker 15: thy laments, as thy butcher is pitiless and base which
- 2:36:54Speaker 15: seized on my Erasto, harmless knight. Yet by thy power
- 2:37:00Speaker 15: thou thinkest to command, and to thy power perceeda doth obey.
- 2:37:06Speaker 15: But were she able, thus she would revenge thy treacheries
- 2:37:10Speaker 15: on thee ignoble prince, stabs him, and on herself she
- 2:37:16Speaker 15: would be thus revenged, stabs herself.
- 2:37:21Speaker 4: Well, said old Marshal, this was bravely done.
- 2:37:25Speaker 7: But bell Imperia plays Perseda.
- 2:37:27Speaker 22: Well, were this in earnest, bell Imperia, you would be
- 2:37:30Speaker 22: better to my son than so.
- 2:37:32Speaker 7: But now what follows for Hieronimo, Mary, this follows for Hieronimo.
- 2:37:38Speaker 7: Here break we off our sundry languages, and does conclude
- 2:37:42Speaker 7: I in our vulgar tongue. Haply you think, But bootless
- 2:37:46Speaker 7: are your thoughts that this is fabulously counterfeit, and that
- 2:37:50Speaker 7: we do all as tragedians do, to die to day
- 2:37:55Speaker 7: for fashioning our scene the death of Ajax or some
- 2:37:58Speaker 7: Roman peer, and in a minute starting up again revived,
- 2:38:02Speaker 7: please tomorrow's audience, No, princes, No, I am hi Ernimo,
- 2:38:09Speaker 7: the hopeless father of a hapless son, whose tongue is
- 2:38:12Speaker 7: tuned to tell his latest tale. Not to excuse gross
- 2:38:16Speaker 7: errors in the play. I see your looks urge instance
- 2:38:21Speaker 7: of these words. Behold the reason urging me.
- 2:38:24Speaker 1: To this shows his dead son.
- 2:38:27Speaker 7: See here my show, look on this spectacle. Here lay
- 2:38:32Speaker 7: my hope, and here my hope hath end. Here lay
- 2:38:36Speaker 7: my heart, and here my heart was slain. Here lay
- 2:38:41Speaker 7: my treasure, here my treasure lost. Here lay my bliss,
- 2:38:46Speaker 7: and here my bliss bereft. But hope, heart, treasure, joy,
- 2:38:52Speaker 7: and bliss all fled, failed, died, yea all decayed with this.
- 2:38:59Speaker 7: From forth these wounds came breath that gave me life.
- 2:39:02Speaker 7: They murdered me, that made these fatal marks. The cause
- 2:39:06Speaker 7: was love. Whence grew this mortal hate, the hate Lorenzo
- 2:39:11Speaker 7: and young Balthazar, the love my son to bel imperia.
- 2:39:17Speaker 7: But Night, the coverer of accursed crimes, with pitchy silence,
- 2:39:23Speaker 7: hushed these traders harms and let them leave, for they
- 2:39:26Speaker 7: had sordid leisure to take advantage in my garden plot
- 2:39:30Speaker 7: upon my son, my dear Horatio. There, merciless, they butchered
- 2:39:35Speaker 7: up my boy, and black dark Night to pale, dim,
- 2:39:39Speaker 7: cruel death. He shrieks, I heard, and yet methinks I
- 2:39:44Speaker 7: hear his dismal outcry echo in the air. With soonest speed,
- 2:39:49Speaker 7: I hastened to the noise where hanging on a tree
- 2:39:53Speaker 7: I found my son threw girt with wounds and slaughtered
- 2:39:57Speaker 7: as you see, and grieved. I think, thank you at
- 2:40:00Speaker 7: this spectacle. Speak Portuguese, whose loss resembles mine? If thou
- 2:40:05Speaker 7: canst weep upon thy Balthazar, tis like I wailed for
- 2:40:08Speaker 7: my Horatio, And you, my lord, whose reconciled son marched
- 2:40:13Speaker 7: in a net and thought himself unseen, and rated me
- 2:40:17Speaker 7: for brainsick lunacy. With God amend that mad Hieronimo, How
- 2:40:22Speaker 7: can you brook our play's catastrophe and Here behold this
- 2:40:26Speaker 7: bloody handkerchier, which, at Horatio's death I weeping dipped with
- 2:40:31Speaker 7: the river of his bleeding wounds. It as propitious, see
- 2:40:35Speaker 7: I have reserved in never hath it left my bloody
- 2:40:38Speaker 7: heart soliciting remembrance of my vow with these O, these
- 2:40:43Speaker 7: accursed murderers, which now performed, My heart is satisfied. And
- 2:40:48Speaker 7: to this end the bashah I became that might revenge
- 2:40:51Speaker 7: me on Lorenzo's life, who therefore was appointed to the
- 2:40:54Speaker 7: pot and was to represent the Knight of Rhodes, that
- 2:40:57Speaker 7: I might kill him. More conveniently, so Viceroy, was this Balthazar,
- 2:41:02Speaker 7: thy son, that solly man which bel Imperia and person
- 2:41:06Speaker 7: of Prosada murdered, solely appointed to that tragic pot, that
- 2:41:10Speaker 7: she might slay him that offended her. Poor bel Imperia
- 2:41:14Speaker 7: missed her part in this, for though the story saith
- 2:41:17Speaker 7: she should have died, yet I, of kindness and of
- 2:41:20Speaker 7: care to her, did otherwise determine of her end. But
- 2:41:24Speaker 7: love of him, whom they did hate too much, did
- 2:41:27Speaker 7: urge her resolution to be such. And princes. Now behold Hieronimo, author,
- 2:41:34Speaker 7: an actor in this tragedy, bearing his latest fortune in
- 2:41:37Speaker 7: his fist. In will as resolute conclude his part and gentles.
- 2:41:42Speaker 7: Thus I end my play, urge no more words.
- 2:41:45Speaker 22: I have no more to say.
- 2:41:51Speaker 1: He runs to hang himself.
- 2:41:53Speaker 4: Oh hearken, myceroy, Hold Hieronimo, brother, my nephew, and thy son.
- 2:41:59Speaker 4: Are we are betrayed?
- 2:42:02Speaker 22: My Balthazar is slain. Break up the doors, run save Hieronimo.
- 2:42:08Speaker 1: They break in and hauld Hieronimo.
- 2:42:11Speaker 22: Hieronimo, do but inform the king of these events upon
- 2:42:14Speaker 22: mine honor? Thou shalt have no harm?
- 2:42:17Speaker 7: Viceroy, I will not trust THEE with my life, which
- 2:42:19Speaker 7: I this day have offered to my son, a cursed wretch.
- 2:42:23Speaker 7: Why stayest thou him that was resolved to die?
- 2:42:26Speaker 4: Speak, traitor, damned bloody murderers speak? For now I have THEE.
- 2:42:32Speaker 4: I will make THEE speak. Why hast thou done this
- 2:42:36Speaker 4: undieserving deed?
- 2:42:38Speaker 22: Why hast them murdered my Balthasar?
- 2:42:41Speaker 12: Why hast thou butchered booth thy children? Thus?
- 2:42:45Speaker 7: But are you sure they are dead?
- 2:42:47Speaker 12: High sleeve too? Sure?
- 2:42:49Speaker 7: What in yours?
- 2:42:50Speaker 23: Two?
- 2:42:51Speaker 14: Ay?
- 2:42:51Speaker 22: All are dead? Not one of them survive?
- 2:42:54Speaker 7: Nay? Then I care not come and we shall be friends.
- 2:42:58Speaker 7: Let us lay our heads together. See here's a goodly
- 2:43:02Speaker 7: news will hold them all. Oh damned devil, how secure
- 2:43:06Speaker 7: he is secure? Why dost thou wonder at it? I
- 2:43:11Speaker 7: tell thee by sproy this day I have seen revenge,
- 2:43:14Speaker 7: And in that sight am grown up. Prouder monarch then
- 2:43:17Speaker 7: ever sat under the crown of Spain. Had I as
- 2:43:21Speaker 7: many lives as there be stars, as many heavens to
- 2:43:24Speaker 7: go to, as those lives, I'd give them all ay
- 2:43:28Speaker 7: and my soul to boot. But I would see thee
- 2:43:31Speaker 7: ride in this red pool. Oh, good words, as dear
- 2:43:35Speaker 7: to me was my horatio, as yours or yours or yours,
- 2:43:39Speaker 7: my lord to you, My guiltless son was by Lorenzo slain,
- 2:43:44Speaker 7: and by Lorenzo, and that Balthazar, upon whose souls may
- 2:43:47Speaker 7: heavens be yet avenged with greater father than these afflictions? U,
- 2:43:51Speaker 7: who were thy confederates in this?
- 2:43:54Speaker 22: That was thy daughter bell Imperia, For by her hand
- 2:43:57Speaker 22: my Balthazar was slain. I saw her stop him.
- 2:44:00Speaker 4: Why speak'st thou not.
- 2:44:03Speaker 7: What less celebrity can kings afford than harmless silence then
- 2:44:07Speaker 7: afforded me sufficeth I may not, nor I will not
- 2:44:11Speaker 7: tell THEE.
- 2:44:12Speaker 4: Fetch forth the tortures traitor, as thou art, I'll make
- 2:44:17Speaker 4: THEE tell.
- 2:44:19Speaker 7: Indeed, thou mayst torment me as his wretched son hath
- 2:44:22Speaker 7: done in murdering my horatio. But never shalt thou force
- 2:44:26Speaker 7: me to reveal the thing which I have bowed and violet.
- 2:44:29Speaker 7: And therefore, in despite of all thy threats, pleased with
- 2:44:33Speaker 7: their death and eased with their revenge, first take my tongue,
- 2:44:37Speaker 7: and afterwards my heart me.
- 2:44:40Speaker 1: He bites out his tongue.
- 2:44:42Speaker 4: O monstrous resolution of a wretch, see Viceroy, he hath
- 2:44:48Speaker 4: beaten forth his tongue rather than to reveal what we required.
- 2:44:53Speaker 12: Yet can he write?
- 2:44:55Speaker 4: And if in this he satisfy us not, we will
- 2:44:58Speaker 4: devise the extremest kind of death that ever was invented
- 2:45:02Speaker 4: for a wretch.
- 2:45:04Speaker 1: Then he makes signs for a knife to mend his pen.
- 2:45:08Speaker 12: Oh, he would have a knife to mend his pen.
- 2:45:11Speaker 22: Here and advise THEE that thou ride the troth Look
- 2:45:15Speaker 22: to my brother, save Hieronimo.
- 2:45:17Speaker 1: He with a knife stabs the Duke and himself.
- 2:45:21Speaker 4: What age hath ever heard such monstrous deeds? My brother,
- 2:45:26Speaker 4: and the whole succeeding hope that Spain expected, after my decease,
- 2:45:32Speaker 4: go bear his body, hence that we may mourn the
- 2:45:36Speaker 4: loss of our beloved brother's death, that he may be
- 2:45:39Speaker 4: intooned whatever before. I am the next, the nearest last.
- 2:45:44Speaker 22: Of all, And thou don Pedro, do the like for us,
- 2:45:48Speaker 22: take up our hapless son, un timeless. Lain, set me
- 2:45:52Speaker 22: with him, and he withwoffele me upon the med mast
- 2:45:56Speaker 22: of a ship unmanned, and let the wind untide haul
- 2:45:59Speaker 22: me al long Tascilla's barking an untamed gulf, or to
- 2:46:03Speaker 22: the lothsome pull of acron to weep my want for
- 2:46:07Speaker 22: my sweet Balthazar. Spain hath no refuge for a porting gull.
- 2:46:13Speaker 1: The trumpets sound a dead march. The King of Spain
- 2:46:16Speaker 1: morning after his brother's body, and the King of portingal
- 2:46:19Speaker 1: bearing the body of his son. Scene five, enter ghost
- 2:46:25Speaker 1: and revenge.
- 2:46:27Speaker 2: Ay, Now my hopes have end in their effects, when
- 2:46:32Speaker 2: blood and sorrow finish my desires. Horacio murdered in his
- 2:46:39Speaker 2: father's bower, vil Serbareen by Pedringano, slain, false Pedringano, hanged
- 2:46:48Speaker 2: by quaint device, fair Isabella by herself, misdunn Prince Balthasar
- 2:46:57Speaker 2: by bel Imperias dab the Duke of Castile and his
- 2:47:03Speaker 2: wicked son, both done to death by old Hieronimore, My
- 2:47:09Speaker 2: bel Imperia fallen as Dido fell, and good Hieronimo slain
- 2:47:17Speaker 2: by inself. Ay, these were spectacles to please my soul.
- 2:47:26Speaker 2: Now will I beg at lovely Proserpine. But by the
- 2:47:30Speaker 2: virtue of her princely doom, I may consort my friends
- 2:47:36Speaker 2: in pleasing sort, and on my foes work just and
- 2:47:42Speaker 2: sharp revenge. I lead my friend Horatio through those fields
- 2:47:50Speaker 2: where never dying wars are still inur'd. I lead fair
- 2:47:57Speaker 2: Isabella to that train where pit Tea weeps, but never
- 2:48:02Speaker 2: feel less pain. I lead my bell Imperia to those
- 2:48:08Speaker 2: joys that vestal virgins and fair Queen's possess. I lead
- 2:48:16Speaker 2: here anymore whereof your's plays, adding sweet pleasure to eternal days.
- 2:48:23Speaker 2: But say revenge, for thou must help or none against
- 2:48:29Speaker 2: the rest? How shall my hate be shown?
- 2:48:34Speaker 3: This hand shall hail them down to deepest hell, where
- 2:48:37Speaker 3: none but furies, bugs and tortures dwell.
- 2:48:42Speaker 2: Then sweet revenge, do this at my request. Let me
- 2:48:47Speaker 2: be judge and doom them to unrest. Let loose poor
- 2:48:53Speaker 2: Titious from the vultures gripe, and let Donciprian supply his room.
- 2:49:00Speaker 2: Place on Lorentz on Ixion's wheel, and let the lover's
- 2:49:07Speaker 2: endless pains surcease. Juno forgets old loss and grants in ease.
- 2:49:16Speaker 2: Hang Baltus are about Climerara's neck, and let him there
- 2:49:21Speaker 2: bewail his bloody love, repining at our joys that are above.
- 2:49:30Speaker 2: Let Sabareen go roll the fatal stone and take from
- 2:49:36Speaker 2: Sisyphus his endless moan false Pedringano for his treachery. Let
- 2:49:44Speaker 2: him be dragg'd through boiling Achirn, and there live, dying
- 2:49:50Speaker 2: still in endless flames, blaspheming gods and all their holy names.
- 2:50:00Speaker 3: Then haste be down to meet thy friends and foes,
- 2:50:04Speaker 3: to place thy friends in ease, the rest in voes.
- 2:50:08Speaker 3: For here, though death hath end their misery, I'll there
- 2:50:12Speaker 3: begin their endless tragedy.
