CERTAINE
STRANGE
and
Lamentable
Tragicall
Historyes
.
¶
A
iust
Fact
,
but
to
cruell
,
of
Iohn
Maria
,
Duke
of
Myllayne
,
towarde
a
Priest
extreme
couetous
.
IOhn
Maria
Vicont
,
sonne
of
Iohn
Galeas
,
vnto
whome
the
Emperour
Ladisilaus
gaue
the
tytle
and
name
of
Duke
of
Myllayne
,
was
he
that
succeeding
in
the
estate
and
dignity
of
Duke
,
made
himselfe
knowne
and
renowned
,
before
all
the
Princes
of
his
tyme
:
not
in
shewing
himselfe
more
vertuous
then
they
,
or
in
surpassing
the
good
Fortune
of
that
good
Galeas
his
Father
,
who
I
thinke
neuer
committed
any
other
notable
euill
,
then
that
he
lefte
behynde
him
a
plague
so
great
and
daungerous
as
his
sonne
,
the
successyon
of
whome
,
was
no
more
fortunate
for
the
Milinois
,
then
was
once
the
Romayne
Monarch
of
Marcus
Aurelius
,
leauing
for
the
inheritour
of
the
Empyre
,
that
Butcher
▪
and
Sworde
player
Commodus
,
a
lyuelye
example
of
creweltye
and
mischiefe
,
and
truelye
hys
Countrey
myghte
well
haue
coniectured
their
Misfortune
,
in
that
Iohn
Maria
was
called
to
the
Dignitye
of
the
Dukedome
,
after
that
all
Italye
had
seene
the
Orygynall
of
the
Ciuill
warres
so
often
wrytten
of
by
the
Hystoryans
,
whiche
so
muche
weakened
the
strength
of
Italye
,
and
abased
the
glorye
of
those
thinges
whiche
remayned
to
them
,
as
Reliques
escaped
from
the
handes
of
so
manye
Barbaryans
and
Straungers
,
that
hadde
foyled
with
their
feete
,
the
honour
of
that
Godlye
Prouynce
,
for
it
was
after
that
the
Guelfes
and
Gibilines
had
throughlye
deuyded
themselues
,
leauyng
no
corner
of
Italye
,
that
was
notte
Dyed
wyth
the
bloud
of
the
poore
Cittizens
,
and
was
it
not
pittyfull
,
to
see
the
Nobillitye
chased
and
wandring
abroade
,
there
beyng
no
creature
that
felte
not
thys
Tempeste
,
and
whyche
perceyued
not
the
vehemencye
of
a
deuysyon
so
furyous
,
so
that
all
Natyons
of
Europe
,
had
their
accesse
to
make
their
Rodes
into
Italye
,
and
there
to
pyll
the
Cittyes
,
and
Fertyle
Fyeldes
,
called
into
the
country
,
eyther
by
the
one
or
the
other
of
the
Factions
.
But
this
Duke
was
renowned
for
the
moste
cruell
and
inhumayne
Tyraunte
,
that
euer
was
nouryshed
in
Christendome
,
and
I
beleeue
that
Bucyrus
Phalaris
,
or
that
Thracian
King
which
fostred
his
Horses
with
the
bodyes
of
the
dead
,
did
neuer
surpasse
him
in
crueltye
,
and
although
his
Predicessoures
had
bene
Princes
,
very
mercifull
,
and
gentle
,
and
that
by
their
modestye
,
they
had
attayned
to
the
place
of
suche
Prehemynence
,
yet
this
is
he
which
forgetting
the
house
wherof
he
came
,
did
degenerate
from
the
bloud
of
his
Ancestours
,
being
despightfull
,
for
that
Fortune
had
bene
otherwyse
to
him
,
then
she
had
bene
towardes
that
excellent
Iohn
Galeas
his
Father
,
and
to
Valentyne
that
was
Wyfe
to
the
Duke
of
Orleans
,
shee
whych
was
slayne
at
Paris
,
by
the
Duke
of
Burgoyne
his
men
,
doeth
so
accarnate
hymselfe
,
that
hee
caused
to
be
deuoured
in
his
presence
,
by
Mastyfes
broughte
vp
to
that
ende
,
those
whyche
for
the
leaste
occasyon
that
hee
fantasyed
in
his
mynde
,
dydde
displease
hym
,
hauyng
for
the
Mynyster
of
hys
crueltye
,
and
in
steade
of
Prouest
Marshall
,
a
Gentleman
named
,
Squarce
Gyrame
,
as
courteous
as
hys
Lorde
,
and
who
in
the
ende
was
also
payde
wyth
the
same
paymente
,
as
was
hys
Mayster
,
being
both
togyther
as
cruelly
slayne
,
as
vnpittifull
they
had
fleshed
themselues
vppon
the
myserable
people
of
Millayne
,
during
the
tyme
then
that
this
incorporate
Deuill
reioyseth
himselfe
,
and
sheweth
these
tragicall
and
detestable
actes
of
hys
cruell
lyfe
,
this
thing
chaunced
which
I
am
now
about
to
descrybe
vnto
you
,
to
the
ende
you
may
beholde
the
two
great
and
extreame
vyces
,
the
one
of
Auaryce
in
a
Priest
,
and
the
other
of
the
crueltie
,
of
the
Duke
.
Iohn
Maria
ryding
one
day
thorough
his
Cittye
,
as
commonly
he
did
,
not
onely
for
to
beholde
the
faultes
of
his
subiectes
,
but
more
to
search
out
if
any
one
durst
complayn
of
the
detestable
maners
of
his
lyfe
,
and
the
very
hauty
and
tyrannical
doings
of
his
raygn
,
to
the
end
he
might
seeme
to
haue
some
reason
to
torment
him
,
that
shoulde
complayne
without
cause
of
his
Lord
,
that
as
yet
had
giuen
him
no
occasyon
:
Thus
as
he
made
these
Iorneys
,
he
hard
a
farre
of
,
a
great
crye
,
and
the
voyce
of
a
woman
complayning
,
who
clapping
her
hands
,
did
eleuate
her
voyce
verye
high
,
thinking
that
GOD
was
deafe
,
and
that
he
will
not
heare
our
necessityes
,
without
such
a
sturre
,
to
whome
he
sent
one
of
his
seruaunts
,
to
know
the
cause
of
a
crye
so
fearefull
,
who
found
it
at
thedore
of
a
pore
woman
,
whose
husband
was
lately
deceased
,
that
thus
complayned
,
as
well
for
the
losse
of
her
companyon
,
as
also
for
that
shee
had
not
wherewith
to
bring
him
to
the
earth
.
Alas
,
sayth
the
woman
(
half
desperate
)
whether
may
the
pore
haue
their
recourse
?
syth
the
very
Church
hath
denyde
their
duetyes
to
them
,
vnto
whome
they
be
bounde
,
to
whome
may
I
adresse
my selfe
?
not
hauing
wherewith
to
satisfye
,
or
glent
the
desyre
of
my
vnsatiable
Curat
,
that
is
neyther
content
with
the
gayns
which
he
hath
,
suffring
this
body
without
life
,
to
remayne
without
Sepulture
,
onely
for
the
herytage
of
all
the
goods
whiche
he
hath
lefte
me
in
this
world
for
my
comforte
,
for
if
I
wyll
haue
him
interred
,
of
necessitye
I
must
sell
all
my
moueables
,
and
afterwards
not
knowing
how
to
relieue
my
Infantes
.
Ah
false
Pastor
,
I
beseech
God
to
punish
with
some
great
persecution
,
both
thee
and
them
which
are
of
lyke
condicions
,
saying
so
,
with
cryes
,
teares
,
sobs
,
and
sighes
,
she
pardoneth
not
her
own
cheekes
and
face
,
but
scratcheth
the
one
,
she
bepaynteth
the
others
,
stryking
herselfe
vpon
the
stomack
,
and
shewing
dyuers
other
sygnes
of
a
woman
distraught
,
the
Dukes
man
seeing
her
to
shew
such
fashyons
,
addrest
him
towardes
her
,
saying
:
My
friende
,
what
wrong
is
this
that
is
done
to
you
,
and
wherefore
shew
you
so
great
dule
?
tell
me
,
because
I
may
make
the
reporte
to
my
Lord
,
who
hath
sent
me
hyther
to
know
the
matter
,
and
assure
your self
,
if
any
one
hath
offended
you
,
he
will
extend
such
Iustice
,
that
you
shall
be
contente
and
satisfyed
,
and
the
authoures
shall
haue
whereof
to
take
example
,
and
withholden
to
doe
iniurye
to
the
poore
in
suche
a
Towne
as
thys
,
where
the
Lorde
wyll
that
Iustyce
be
done
to
euery
one
,
without
respecte
of
estate
.
The
woman
who
knewe
by
his
Lyuerye
,
that
hee
was
one
of
the
Dukes
Seruauntes
,
whose
presence
although
it
were
not
verye
agreeable
vnto
her
,
in
thynking
that
hee
came
there
but
onelye
to
seeke
some
praye
,
yet
not
fearing
anye
worse
aduenture
then
her
owne
,
nor
anye
Fortune
more
frowarde
then
the
estate
wherein
shee
was
,
and
also
for
that
death
to
her
woulde
haue
bene
great
solace
,
ioying
also
that
the
Offycer
had
talked
vnto
her
so
gentlye
,
aunswereth
him
in
thys
sorte
.
Alas
Syr
,
beholde
there
the
deade
bodye
of
my
Husbande
,
which
the
Prieste
of
thys
Parrishe
hath
refused
to
burye
,
for
that
I
haue
not
wherewith
to
satisfye
him
for
his
payne
,
and
to
content
him
for
the
Funerals
.
This
is
the
occasyon
why
I
torment
my selfe
,
not
knowing
how
I
maye
interre
the
deade
Corpes
,
the
onely
memorye
whereof
,
hath
made
mee
so
full
of
sorrowe
and
dule
,
and
to
showe
before
your
eyes
this
outrage
.
The
Duke
which
this
space
attended
to
know
the
occasyon
of
this
crye
,
vnto
whome
his
man
being
retourned
,
sayth
:
My
Lorde
,
in
this
house
before
you
,
is
a
poore
woman
,
inuyroned
wyth
small
Chyldren
,
(
whose
Husbande
thys
morning
being
dead
)
,
hath
desyred
the
Priest
to
burye
the
bodye
of
the
deade
,
but
hee
vnlesse
shee
will
paye
the
interrage
,
and
the
accustomed
Funeralles
,
hath
vtterlye
denyed
her
to
goe
aboute
it
,
wherefore
shee
maketh
this
noyse
,
not
hauing
wherewith
to
doe
it
,
and
furthermore
,
if
shee
shoulde
sell
her
mooueables
,
shee
hath
not
wherewyth
then
to
bring
vp
her
small
Infantes
.
Iohn
Maria
hearing
him
tell
of
a
Facte
so
Vylonyous
,
and
of
a
couetousnesse
so
detestable
,
began
to
laugh
,
whose
laughter
was
a
prognostication
of
the
teares
of
some
man
.
Then
tourning
to
them
of
hys
Trayne
,
hee
sayth
.
Truely
this
mayster
Curate
is
very
vncharitable
,
and
greatly
giuen
to
his
owne
profyte
,
so
to
denye
his
helpe
to
them
that
requyre
him
,
syth
that
it
is
his
duety
,
and
hee
is
hyred
to
doe
it
.
Therefore
it
is
good
that
I
shewe
him
the
waye
,
and
excercyse
our
Charitye
in
this
,
causing
this
body
to
be
intombed
,
and
then
to
extende
our
almes
to
this
woman
,
that
lamenteth
as
well
for
her
owne
losse
,
as
for
that
shee
beholdeth
her selfe
charged
wyth
Infantes
,
and
not
knowing
howe
to
keepe
them
,
shoulde
not
this
be
well
done
?
sayeth
he
to
his
Gentlemen
:
Truely
my
Lorde
aunswereth
one
of
the
trayne
,
this
acte
would
bee
as
greatly
praysed
,
as
any
good
deede
that
you
can
doe
in
this
worlde
,
and
especially
for
that
your
excellencye
in
forgetting
your
Nobillity
,
shall
so
much
abase
your selfe
,
as
to
accompany
the
most
pore
to
the
earth
,
and
to
succour
their
widdowes
,
although
they
neuer
did
you
anye
seruyce
:
Let
vs
go
then
(
sayth
the
Duke
,
)
the
Priest
as
it
may
be
,
will
doe
his
duetye
to
this
partye
,
at
my
desyre
,
wherefore
I
will
giue
him
such
a
Salary
for
his
paynes
,
as
all
hys
lyfe
after
,
he
shall
not
haue
cause
to
complaine
:
He
sayth
this
,
thinking
so
well
to
chasten
the
Priest
,
that
from
thence
forth
he
shoulde
make
no
more
such
refusals
,
commanding
then
,
that
he
which
had
bene
first
at
the
house
of
the
widdowe
,
should
go
for
the
Curate
to
come
talke
with
the
Duke
,
for
a
matter
of
great
importaunce
.
The
mayster
Chaplen
which
thought
of
nothing
lesse
,
then
the
fault
which
he
had
done
,
and
remembred
not
at
all
of
the
dead
,
the
corpes
of
whome
,
remayned
without
Sepulture
,
came
sodaynly
to
the
Dukes
presence
,
whome
after
the
Duke
had
wel
beholden
,
and
seeing
him
fat
,
grosse
in
euery
poynt
,
and
cloathed
in
rich
Apparell
,
was
not
abashed
at
all
of
the
refusal
that
he
had
made
to
the
pore
woman
,
as
well
for
his
well
lyking
,
whereby
hee
shewed
that
one
hower
of
pleasure
,
was
an
hundered
tymes
more
agreable
vnto
him
,
then
a
thousand
yeres
of
seruitude
,
and
that
also
to
nourish
such
a
belly
,
it
was
needefull
to
haue
more
gaynes
,
then
rose
of
his
cure
,
hauing
his
Vysage
more
lyke
the
picture
of
some
swollen
Bacchus
,
then
of
one
professing
the
studye
of
diuinitie
,
fynally
this
Priest
did
not
vary
at
all
from
the
moste
parte
of
them
,
that
at
this
daye
to
the
great
domage
of
all
Christendome
,
haue
entered
into
the
Ministery
,
who
thinke
that
they
haue
done
their
duety
,
in
making
a
feast
or
dinner
to
their
equalles
,
without
remembring
the
rest
of
their
office
,
neyther
to
visyte
the
poore
,
nor
to
succour
them
,
according
to
the
statutes
,
and
ordinaunces
of
the
holy
Canons
,
ordayned
by
the
generall
and
sacred
counsels
,
but
are
become
feeders
of
their
owne
bellyes
,
and
dumme
dogges
,
so
that
the
onely
name
of
Priesthood
ought
to
shadowe
them
,
and
suffyce
as
they
imagyne
,
wythout
necessitie
to
put
their
hand
to
the
worke
,
and
to
satisfye
by
effect
,
that
for
which
they
be
called
.
Our
Curate
then
bolde
and
assured
,
presenteth
hymself
to
Iohn
Maria
,
saying
:
My
Lord
,
it
hath
pleased
your
excellency
to
commaunde
mee
to
come
before
you
,
may
it
also
please
you
to
shew
me
the
thing
wherein
you
wyll
imploy
me
,
in
which
I
will
obey
you
,
as
he
that
desireth
nothing
but
to
serue
and
please
you
.
The
wyly
and
subtle
Lord
,
seeyng
the
fayned
curtesy
and
pleasant
words
of
the
syr
Iohn
,
began
to
laugh
,
and
to
mocke
him
with
his
glory
,
and
to
detest
his
impudent
auaryce
,
answering
him
:
I
haue
sent
for
you
to
the
ende
you
should
cause
to
bee
brought
to
the
earth
,
that
poore
man
which
is
one
of
your
parishioners
,
&
I
will
giue
you
the
rewarde
and
Salary
that
you
merite
,
for
it
is
neyther
iust
nor
meete
that
such
a
man
as
you
,
should
be
imployed
without
recompence
.
Pardone
mee
my
Lord
sayth
the
Priest
,
your
only
commandement
deth
suffyce
,
&
your
grace
holdeth
the
place
of
al
satysfaction
:
Wel
,
wel
,
sayeth
the
Duke
,
I
accept
all
that
you
haue
sayd
,
and
beleeue
that
you
woulde
doe
more
for
mee
then
this
,
syth
at
this
tyme
I
see
you
so
preste
to
doe
your
duety
in
this
afayre
,
therefore
goe
prepare
your selfe
,
for
I
will
assist
you
at
the
obsequies
,
assuring
you
,
that
you
shal
be
recompenced
before
I
depart
,
as
I
intend
,
and
according
to
your
desartes
.
Now
the
Chaplayne
,
which
thought
that
he
was
already
placed
in
the
office
of
the
Dukes
Almoner
,
verye
pleasaunte
and
merrye
departeth
towardes
his
Church
,
where
hee
setteth
all
thinges
in
order
,
and
sendeth
for
a
good
companye
of
Priestes
and
others
,
whych
serued
ordinarilye
in
the
Churches
,
because
hee
would
with
more
greater
pompe
,
and
honour
accompany
the
Corpes
,
for
which
the
Duke
had
so
desyred
him
.
But
the
myserable
Priest
sawe
not
,
that
was
the
Trayne
whyche
Fortune
had
ordayned
for
him
,
and
howe
neare
the
hower
dyd
approache
,
in
which
he
must
paye
the
arr●rages
of
his
afore
passed
lyfe
,
and
aboue
all
that
great
and
vyle
synne
of
cruell
Auaryce
,
by
an
other
crueltye
the
moste
straunge
that
hath
beene
hearde
of
,
and
I
am
abashed
,
howe
he
should
be
so
far
beside
his
wyt
,
that
seeing
the
fault
which
he
had
committed
,
&
knowing
the
nature
of
his
Lord
,
himself
hearing
him
speake
so
doubtfully
,
and
with
wordes
smelling
more
of
his
choller
then
gentlenesse
,
how
he
durste
retourne
and
represent
himselfe
agayne
before
the
furyous
face
of
his
Prince
:
But
what
?
he
was
so
blynded
with
Auaryce
,
and
led
withthe
desyre
of
Money
,
that
euerye
looke
seemed
vnto
hym
curteous
,
and
euery
word
pleasaunte
,
syth
the
talke
of
gayne
and
recompence
marched
therewyth
.
The
Duke
hearing
the
iangling
and
noyse
of
the
Belles
,
could
not
refrayne
from
laughter
,
saying
:
By
God
Mayster
Curat
you
show
well
the
greedy
appetyte
of
you
auaryce
,
syth
the
dead
carcases
doe
so
displease
you
without
offence
,
I
will
gyue
you
such
a
reward
as
shal
remayne
in
memory
here
this
hundred
yeres
:
His
men
by
these
wordes
perceyued
well
that
the
Duke
had
deuysed
somewhat
agaynst
the
Curat
,
&
assured
themselues
seeing
his
countenaunce
,
which
the
Priest
feared
as
much
as
death
:
But
behold
now
the
Chaplayne
wyth
his
company
,
came
and
sung
the
Ambrosyan
Vygils
,
before
the
doore
of
the
dead
,
to
whom
the
Duke
was
assistaunte
,
and
hearde
wyth
pacyence
and
good
deuotyon
,
the
Durge
sung
for
the
dead
,
which
he
behelde
gladly
then
,
for
one
that
accompanyed
him
,
during
this
styrre
he
gaue
commandement
to
the
graue
makers
,
that
they
shoulde
make
the
graue
verye
deepe
and
large
,
without
telling
why
so
,
of
whome
he
was
obayed
,
for
that
they
knewe
the
commaunder
,
who
was
wel
known
in
his
Dukedome
,
more
for
feare
,
then
loue
that
any
of
hys
Subiects
bare
him
,
for
that
is
very
true
which
is
commonly
sayd
,
that
men
hate
him
deadly
,
whome
they
feare
,
the
seruice
being
ended
in
the
Church
,
there
was
great
Funerall
pompe
shewed
in
going
to
the
Churchyarde
,
to
fynish
the
Obsequyes
,
that
yet
before
the
bodye
was
put
into
the
earth
,
they
song
Psalmes
,
and
other
Prayers
,
in
suche
a
case
accustomed
,
where
the
Prieste
obserued
suche
a
grauytye
and
reuerence
in
hys
Ceremonyes
,
that
hee
himselfe
could
scarce
forbeare
the
pleasure
that
he
receyued
of
his
well
doing
.
But
beholde
here
the
last
acte
of
the
Tragedye
,
for
as
soone
as
all
was
fynished
,
Now
to
retourne
to
the
matter
,
the
Duke
hauing
accomplyshed
these
Tragical
,
and
sorrowful
Funerals
,
he
dispatched
sodenly
one
of
his
men
to
the
house
of
the
Priest
,
from
whence
he
caused
all
his
moueables
to
be
caryed
,
and
giuen
to
the
poore
wyddow
,
the
wyfe
of
hym
that
was
dead
,
with
whome
the
Priest
was
companyon
in
the
graue
.
This
last
sentence
was
as
iust
,
as
the
fyrst
was
vniust
,
cruell
,
and
horrible
,
syth
it
was
good
reason
that
he
should
be
punished
in
hys
goods
,
that
for
Avaryce
and
desyre
of
Money
,
had
forgotten
hymselfe
,
and
the
duety
requysyte
in
a
publique
man
,
such
a
one
as
is
the
Pastoure
of
a
Churche
,
bee
not
offended
,
(
you
that
beare
the
Ecclesyasticall
Offyces
)
of
that
whyche
I
haue
sayde
,
but
take
Example
by
the
myserable
ende
of
one
of
your
estate
,
thinking
that
the
persecutions
and
the
euill
that
God
hath
sent
you
,
procedeth
of
your
ambicion
,
auaryce
,
ignorance
,
and
whoredome
,
I
tel
you
truly
,
I
am
sorry
for
that
the
aduersarye
of
the
Church
suppresseth
the
good
men
,
&
throweth
down
them
that
ought
to
be
honored
,
wheras
the
foolish
,
the
slow
bellyes
,
the
ignorant
,
&
the
whoremongers
feele
no
such
scourges
,
but
God
which
is
iust
,
hath
by
these
meanes
called
you
to
repentaunce
,
because
you
should
acknowledge
your
faultes
,
and
lyue
more

¶
A
Gentleman
Myllinois
beeing
amorous
at
the
very
end
of
his
age
,
for
the
extreame
Ielosy
of
his
Concubyne
,
was
cause
of
the
death
of
his
Sonne
and
of
himselfe
,
and
lastly
of
the
vnhappy
ende
of
the
Harlot
,
whiche
was
cause
of
all
.
AT
the
time
when
the
french
armies
were
discouered
throughout
Italy
,
for
the
Conquest
of
Myllayne
,
causing
all
the
state
of
the
Venetians
to
tremble
▪
when
Lewis
the
seuenth
had
brought
his
affayres
in
such
readynes
,
that
he
pitched
his
Campe
euen
in
the
sight
of
their
next
Citie
,
breaking
down
their
walles
,
and
ouerthrowing
with
the
force
of
his
Canons
their
Towers
of
defence
,
that
Venis
neuer
felte
any
greater
,
or
more
mightyer
force
.
The
Venetians
not
knowing
howe
,
or
by
what
meanes
to
quyet
their
bondes
,
and
to
appease
the
displeasure
of
a
King
,
iustly
incensed
agaynste
their
infydelitie
and
arrogancie
,
about
that
tyme
(
I
saye
)
there
was
a
Gentleman
Milinois
,
which
for
the
troubles
comming
,
doth
conuay
himselfe
to
a
Castle
,
that
hee
had
before
Monse
,
as
lykewyse
did
the
moste
parte
of
them
that
coulde
not
brooke
the
chaunging
of
their
Lord
,
or
who
(
as
it
might
bee
)
were
not
able
to
indure
the
insolencye
,
and
crueltye
of
the
French
Souldyers
.
This
Gentleman
of
whome
I
intreate
,
was
a
Wyddower
,
to
whome
there
was
remayning
onely
two
chyldren
,
the
one
of
the
Age
of
seuen
or
eyghte
yeares
,
the
other
approaching
neare
to
the
age
of
twentye
,
the
olde
man
seeing
hymselfe
wythoute
a
wyfe
,
although
hee
hadde
almoste
passed
the
age
of
threescore
yeares
,
neyther
hauing
regarde
to
hys
Age
,
nor
to
hys
approaching
death
,
doeth
become
amorous
of
a
gyrle
,
the
Daughter
of
a
Messenger
,
both
fayre
and
well
fauoured
,
of
whome
hee
had
his
pleasure
,
by
the
meanes
of
the
onely
Father
of
the
Gyrle
,
which
solde
her
vnto
him
.
This
is
a
marke
very
certayne
,
to
bewayle
any
man
,
which
we
see
in
his
age
to
become
a
Father
,
whose
youth
hath
geuen
him
no
sygne
thereof
,
yet
thys
is
moste
detestable
that
Chrystyans
beare
the
iniquitie
of
Fathers
and
Mothers
,
so
impudente
and
euill
,
as
to
sell
,
prostytute
,
and
corrupte
their
owne
Daughters
,
and
commonly
the
Maiestrates
of
our
tyme
wyll
see
nothing
,
the
Kinges
shutte
their
eyes
,
they
that
fayne
them selues
to
be
most
holy
of
all
the
rest
,
take
some
Golden
gyfte
to
heare
the
Chastitye
soulde
●or
bargayned
sommes
,
and
there
is
not
one
amongest
them
all
,
which
punisheth
this
marchandyse
of
bodyes
,
washed
by
the
bloud
of
him
,
that
through
the
pryce
of
hys
lyfe
hath
redeemed
vs
out
of
the
handes
of
hym
,
whyche
helde
vs
in
bondage
,
wherefore
the
Gentiles
and
Infydels
of
tyme
paste
,
doe
exceede
and
vanquish
vs
in
Iustice
and
polliticke
doinges
,
more
right
then
oures
,
that
they
haue
thereby
attayned
the
glory
of
punishing
faults
whyche
we
behold
,
endure
,
and
approue
,
and
as
executers
therof
,
do
glory
and
prayse
them
.
Vnhappy
surely
is
the
world
,
where
vyce
beres
the
name
of
Iustyce
,
and
Iniquitye
is
praysed
as
a
vertue
,
infortunate
is
the
place
where
such
fauoure
is
shewed
to
the
wicked
,
that
their
infamye
is
sustayned
,
and
approoued
by
the
moste
mightye
.
But
the
wycked
doe
not
remember
at
all
,
that
GOD
is
in
Heauen
,
regarding
and
beholding
the
deedes
of
men
,
for
to
doe
Iustice
one
daye
,
by
the
strength
of
his
hande
,
and
the
inuytable
force
of
his
scourges
,
by
whyche
(
wythout
exceptynge
of
persons
)
hee
indyfferentlye
doeth
punishe
both
the
faulte
of
the
offender
,
and
of
him
that
fayleth
to
execute
the
aucthoritye
,
and
the
sworde
that
God
hath
put
into
his
handes
.
But
nowe
to
retourne
to
our
former
matter
,
thys
verye
lybydynous
and
wanton
olde
man
,
keeping
this
Gyrle
at
bed
and
boorde
in
his
Castle
,
lying
ordinarily
with
her
,
and
chafeth
the
cold
&
vnhappy
fleshe
of
the
vyle
Mountayn
Satyre
,
that
seketh
to
contynue
that
whiche
nature
doeth
deny
him
,
and
assayeth
to
ouercome
his
own
force
.
The
eldest
sonne
seeing
the
dishonesty
of
his
father
,
was
sad
beyonde
all
measure
,
vsing
neuerthelesse
such
a
modestye
and
vertuous
dissimulation
,
because
he
would
not
make
sorrowfull
his
father
,
that
hee
shewed
a
better
countenaunce
to
the
Palyarde
,
then
he
coulde
well
,
whome
he
hated
to
the
death
,
as
well
for
that
she
was
such
a
one
,
as
for
that
he
knewe
she
would
be
the
ruine
and
shortning
of
the
life
of
the
vnhappy
olde
man
,
and
also
for
that
hee
saw
her
so
fonde
and
vnshamefast
,
that
one
mighte
easilye
iudge
by
her
,
she
would
not
refuse
the
intertayning
of
another
Captayne
,
which
might
furnish
her
somewhat
better
,
for
the
old
man
doth
serue
onely
for
the
increasing
and
prouocation
of
her
sensualitie
,
without
power
at
anye
tyme
to
contente
the
immoderate
wantonnesse
,
that
burned
within
her
mynde
,
and
therfore
she
thinketh
to
practyse
a
combate
more
lustye
and
of
better
hope
,
which
she
did
,
because
the
olde
man
was
not
able
to
suffice
her
:
Ah
insaciable
desyres
,
and
depth
not
to
be
fylled
,
that
is
the
wantonnesse
of
an
harlot
,
what
detestable
euils
haue
chaunced
by
these
loues
,
to
them
that
without
all
shame
,
haue
put
all
their
glory
and
pleasure
in
the
delightes
and
flatteryes
of
the
worlde
,
onely
Sampson
,
Salomon
,
and
Hercules
may
giue
sure
testimony
.
Now
this
gyrle
as
we
sayd
before
,
feeling
the
dimissing
of
the
forces
of
her
louer
,
doth
deliberate
to
pursue
another
pray
,
therefore
she
impudently
casteth
her
lookes
on
the
sonne
of
the
Gentleman
,
and
in
becomming
Amorous
,
shee
purposeth
,
if
it
be
possyble
,
to
make
him
the
Liefetenaunt
,
and
ayde
of
hys
Father
,
and
this
she
doth
not
for
anye
curtesy
that
was
hid
vnder
the
Haggard
and
rustick
nature
,
and
bringing
vp
of
the
rude
countrey
,
but
for
that
she
saw
the
yong
man
fayre
,
well
proporcyoned
of
his
members
,
and
for
that
she
iudgeth
him
apte
to
performe
the
Chase
,
in
which
his
father
was
able
to
giue
but
symple
attemptes
,
sodaynly
shee
seaseth
from
her
enterpryse
,
as
do
the
yong
Louers
,
not
experte
or
able
ynough
to
detayne
their
pray
,
by
and
by
agayne
,
she
goeth
about
to
shew
him
al
friendship
,
and
familiaritie
that
she
coulde
,
and
often
tymes
she
seeketh
hym
,
fynding
him
at
his
boke
,
where
she
sheweth
euidently
the
desyres
that
cause
her
to
pursue
him
.
But
the
good
chyld
,
neuer
thought
of
such
a
wickednesse
,
as
well
to
be
chaste
of
his
nature
,
as
for
the
feare
of
God
,
and
offending
of
his
father
,
and
for
that
as
yet
,
hee
had
neuer
bene
kyndled
wyth
loue
,
nor
taken
in
the
trap
of
worldlye
follyes
:
But
the
Concubyne
perceyuing
that
shee
trauayled
in
vayn
,
thinking
to
make
him
vnderstand
her
desyres
by
sygnes
,
doeth
deliberate
,
(
as
soone
as
occasyon
shoulde
be
offered
)
to
manyfest
it
vnto
him
by
worde
,
which
she
dyd
one
day
,
his
Father
being
gone
to
see
one
of
his
neighboures
,
and
before
she
would
assaulte
the
yong
man
,
shee
doeth
instructe
in
that
myschiefe
a
Chambermayd
her
Cosen
,
to
the
end
that
when
her
perswasyons
should
fayle
,
the
other
myghte
supplye
her
wante
,
as
soone
as
these
eloquente
Ieayes
hadde
prepared
themselues
,
they
wente
to
seeke
the
Gentleman
,
whome
they
founde
recreatyng
himselfe
in
the
myddest
of
a
great
Chamber
,
the
fayre
Forrest
Nymphe
,
assysted
wyth
the
keeper
of
her
bed
,
began
to
saye
vnto
him
.
I
knowe
not
syr
what
to
thynke
of
you
,
or
to
make
of
your
doinges
,
whiche
loued
and
desyred
of
any
,
doe
not
accoumpte
it
your
parte
to
recompence
them
with
lyke
affections
,
whyche
desyre
your
acquayntaunce
,
I
thinke
surely
that
you
are
not
so
colde
,
that
your
hart
is
not
to
be
attached
with
any
amorous
passyon
,
nor
I
esteeme
you
so
frowarde
that
if
any
fayre
dame
of
what
state
soeuer
she
were
,
would
geue
you
power
to
command
,
you
would
be
able
to
abandon
and
refuse
her
.
To
what
purpose
saye
you
this
?
aunswereth
ho
,
haue
you
seene
in
mee
any
sygne
of
rudenesse
or
discourtesye
towardes
any
woman
that
lyues
?
I
sweare
vnto
you
that
if
vnwittingly
I
haue
committed
this
faulte
,
for
a
faulte
requyres
but
amendes
.
She
which
thoughte
to
haue
holy
gayned
,
and
to
imbrace
him
already
within
her
armes
,
began
to
weepe
verye
tenderly
,
in
saying
:
Alas
syr
,
I
know
one
that
would
think
her
the
most
hapy
woman
that
lyues
,
if
you
would
amend
the
wrong
which
you
haue
done
her
,
in
not
making
accoumpte
of
the
signes
by
which
she
hath
assayed
to
cause
you
to
vnderstande
her
griefe
.
I
knowe
not
a
woman
vnder
heauen
,
(
sayeth
he
)
of
whom
I
haue
had
such
acquayntaunce
,
to
know
anye
signe
that
shoulde
show
me
her
priuie
affection
:
And
would
you
haue
her
dispayre
of
that
(
sayeth
she
)
which
she
seeth
also
mistaken
,
you
not
willing
to
see
any
thing
in
so
playne
a
thing
,
and
not
to
perceyue
at
all
wherevnto
thinges
are
offered
so
openlye
to
the
sences
of
him
that
is
so
vnsensible
,
that
hee
can
not
comprehende
the
meanes
and
deuyses
of
the
passyonate
,
and
which
tasteth
not
the
vyands
purposed
to
be
discouered
.
I
vnderstande
not
thys
talke
(
sayeth
hee
)
if
you
expresse
it
not
otherwyse
.
Thys
is
,
then
sayeth
the
Chambermayd
that
my
Cosyn
is
so
amorous
of
you
,
that
if
you
haue
not
pittye
of
her
,
she
is
in
daunger
to
end
her
lyfe
myserablye
.
Amorous
of
me
,
sayeth
the
chaste
yong
man
,
is
it
possyble
that
a
daughter
of
her
age
,
should
be
so
vnshamfast
and
impudent
,
as
to
solocite
the
sonne
,
after
she
hath
bene
deflowred
by
the
father
.
Auaunte
you
strumpets
,
loue
such
as
you
be
,
and
go
excercise
your
tromperyes
with
the
Deuils
,
that
may
furbisse
you
according
to
the
heates
that
so
molest
you
,
you
shew
well
the
place
of
your
byrth
,
which
was
neuer
otherwyse
then
infamous
and
beastly
,
for
who
is
so
foolish
to
think
that
an
euill
tree
of
it selfe
can
bring
forth
good
or
delicious
fruite
▪
Thinkest
thou
infamous
creature
,
and
vyle
Pallyarde
,
that
I
will
be
so
wicked
,
as
so
vnshamefastly
to
vyolate
the
bed
of
my
Lorde
and
Father
,
how
vnlawfull
and
common
soeuer
she
be
?
No
,
no
,
I
haue
I
thank
God
the
Heauen
before
myne
eyes
,
towarde
the
which
when
I
addresse
my
sight
,
I
behold
one
God
,
which
doeth
vysyte
the
iniquities
of
the
wicked
,
and
payeth
to
euery
one
according
to
his
Iustice
and
demerytes
,
I
haue
regarde
to
the
reuerence
that
I
owe
to
my
father
,
for
else
long
agone
I
woulde
haue
sente
thee
towardes
thy
father
,
which
was
the
Butcher
,
and
the
infamous
Minister
of
thy
chastitie
,
get
thee
away
then
from
hence
,
and
talke
no
more
to
mee
of
this
,
else
I
assure
thee
,
I
shall
cause
my
Father
to
know
it
,
to
the
ende
that
he
shall
holde
no
longer
in
his
companye
,
an
infection
so
contagyous
as
thou
,
which
arte
lyke
to
bee
the
ouerthrow
and
ruine
of
all
his
house
:
Hauing
sayde
so
,
the
good
yong
man
almoste
besyde
himselfe
,
and
greatly
abashed
,
departeth
out
of
the
Chamber
,
leauing
the
two
Flatterers
as
much
ashamed
and
abashed
,
as
he
was
angry
for
their
impudent
request
.
Nowe
this
wanton
Concubyne
loseth
not
her
stomacke
,
but
day
by
day
shee
importunately
sueth
vnto
him
by
her
Cosyn
:
But
he
remayneth
fyrme
in
his
opynyon
,
and
although
he
had
no
desyre
to
reporte
it
to
his
Father
,
yet
hee
threatneth
them
so
well
,
that
they
feared
he
would
doe
as
he
sayd
,
and
therefore
they
addrest
such
a
treason
,
as
you
shall
heare
.
The
detestable
Palyarde
beholding
herselfe
so
often
refused
,
beginneth
by
lyttle
and
little
,
to
conuerte
the
loue
that
shee
bare
to
this
yong
Gentleman
,
into
a
fury
and
deadly
hate
,
and
this
inraged
enemy
increased
,
and
tooke
such
deepe
roote
in
her
harte
,
that
she
wyth
the
Chambermayde
her
Cosyn
,
doth
deuyse
the
vtter
ruine
of
him
,
that
had
so
folishly
dispysed
her
,
so
they
consulte
togythers
,
she
should
complayne
to
the
Father
,
that
his
sonne
woulde
with
force
haue
vyolated
,
and
taken
his
pleasure
vpon
her
,
which
being
thus
concluded
betweene
these
two
abhominable
Furyes
,
was
shortly
executed
.
For
a
certayne
tyme
after
,
as
sone
as
the
old
man
was
gone
to
see
his
lands
,
lying
thereaboutes
,
these
vnhappy
women
seing
him
retourne
,
euen
then
began
to
chaunge
their
vysage
,
not
ceasing
to
weepe
,
sygh
,
and
lament
,
wythout
anye
will
to
departe
out
of
the
chamber
.
The
infortunate
Gentleman
aryued
,
came
into
the
Chamber
of
hys
Mynion
,
whome
he
founde
all
be
wept
,
accompanyed
wyth
her
counseller
,
who
for
her
parte
shewed
well
that
it
was
for
some
greate
matter
that
they
were
so
sorrowfull
.
He
whyche
loued
this
euill
woman
more
then
himselfe
,
wylling
to
knowe
what
thys
mente
,
prayeth
her
to
comforte
her selfe
,
and
imbraceth
her
so
gentlely
,
that
the
false
Crocodile
,
as
constrayned
to
doe
so
,
began
to
weepe
more
bitterlye
then
before
,
declaring
a
long
Fable
that
myghte
serue
to
gyue
some
couloure
to
her
accusation
,
in
the
ende
she
sayth
.
O
would
God
my
Lorde
that
death
had
taken
me
awaye
the
hower
before
yee
wente
hence
,
for
I
would
not
by
any
meanes
haue
bene
the
occasyon
of
that
euill
whych
I
see
prepared
,
in
accoumpting
to
you
the
truth
of
that
whyche
you
so
much
desyre
to
know
,
but
what
wyll
it
auayle
to
dissemble
that
which
in
the
end
will
manifest
it selfe
?
I
am
(
vnfortunate
woman
)
the
meekely
of
euery
one
,
&
despysed
of
all
,
for
that
I
am
the
pleasure
of
your
age
,
but
is
not
this
ynough
if
he
doe
not
assay
to
conuert
thys
simple
sinne
into
a
vyce
incestious
&
execrable
?
this
is
your
eldest
sonne
,
my
Lord
;
that
forgetting
the
honour
whych
he
oweth
to
your
age
,
to
the
reuerence
wherof
he
is
bound
by
the
power
whych
you
haue
ouer
him
,
hath
oftentimes
requyred
me
of
loue
,
within
this
thre
months
,
but
what
shall
I
say
more
.
Alas
sayth
she
,
weping
bytterly
,
hee
hath
sponne
a
fayre
webbe
,
for
this
morning
as
soone
as
you
were
in
the
fyeldes
,
the
Rybawde
,
pardon
me
syr
if
so
I
call
him
,
came
hyther
wyth
such
a
fury
,
that
I
feared
hee
woulde
haue
put
mee
to
death
,
but
hee
pursued
vppon
mee
a
thing
more
noysome
then
Death
,
so
that
as
hee
was
in
stryuing
to
force
me
,
and
had
done
it
,
my
forces
so
fayled
to
defende
my selfe
,
if
this
gyrle
had
not
come
by
chaunce
,
the
presence
of
whome
caused
him
to
forsake
his
enterpryse
.
The
olde
man
hearing
such
pittifull
newes
,
remayned
so
troubled
and
astonyed
,
that
for
a
good
tyme
he
spake
neuer
a
worde
,
then
breaking
his
sylence
,
he
sayth
:
And
is
this
possible
that
he
whom
I
haue
more
dearely
loued
then
myne
owne
lyfe
,
hath
so
much
mistaken
hys
gentlenesse
,
that
he
would
dishonour
the
loue
of
his
father
.
Ah
infortunate
chylde
,
and
I
a
father
greatly
to
be
lamented
,
syth
I
am
tormented
by
myne
owne
bloud
,
of
whome
I
thought
to
haue
had
some
greater
ioy
▪
then
he
helde
his
tongue
and
sate
downe
,
casting
his
lokes
here
&
there
,
with
such
countenance
that
a
man
might
iudge
the
greefe
of
his
mynde
to
be
more
excessyue
then
his
strength
was
able
to
suffer
,
yet
sayth
he
to
the
Rybawde
,
I
pray
thee
my
friend
,
tell
me
the
veritie
of
this
fact
,
to
the
ende
I
shall
not
doe
any
thing
that
may
hereafter
cause
me
to
late
to
repente
.
Ah
poore
and
caytyfe
woman
that
I
am
,
sayeth
the
shamelesse
Pallyard
,
I
see
well
that
if
this
trompery
of
your
sonne
,
had
not
bene
discouered
by
me
,
but
that
by
some
other
it
had
come
to
your
knowledge
,
you
would
haue
done
such
Iustice
,
that
men
shoulde
haue
taken
example
by
me
in
tyme
to
come
,
and
nowe
syth
I
haue
shewed
my selfe
so
faythfull
towardes
you
,
you
doubt
of
my
fayth
,
and
esteeme
my
words
for
boordes
and
mockeryes
,
inquyre
you
syr
of
this
Gyrle
which
hath
seene
all
the
mysterye
,
and
then
doe
with
me
as
you
shal
think
good
,
for
I
know
not
well
how
to
liue
anye
longer
here
,
where
men
giue
such
synister
intertaynment
to
them
which
serue
them
faythfully
.
The
olde
man
examyneth
the
chambermayd
,
who
playde
her
part
better
then
her
Mistresse
,
and
and
incenseth
the
Father
so
sharpely
agaynste
the
sonne
,
that
he
purposeth
to
punishe
him
so
greeuously
,
as
the
lyke
hath
neuer
bene
hearde
of
,
rauished
then
in
this
extasye
of
anger
,
hee
speaketh
a
thousand
follies
,
and
was
changed
into
suche
a
choler
,
by
the
impoysoning
of
the
dangerouse
venime
Ielosy
,
as
one
distraught
and
frantick
,
and
remayned
in
the
chamber
a
great
space
rulling
his
eyes
in
whytenesse
,
grynding
his
teeth
,
and
saying
the
dogges
paternoster
,
inraged
agaynst
him
,
of
whome
he
thought
he
had
receyued
such
an
vnworthy
outrage
,
which
during
the
tyme
that
this
tempest
boyled
within
the
stomack
of
his
Ieleous
father
,
lyke
as
some
say
there
is
a
tempest
vppon
the
Tyrenea
mountaynes
,
all
the
Caniculer
dayes
,
and
also
in
the
deepenesse
of
that
Scicilian
Ethne
:
arryued
in
the
house
in
an
vnhappy
tyme
,
for
the
torment
tourned
wholy
vpon
him
,
the
drops
whereof
did
reuerberate
vpon
the
infortunate
father
,
who
comming
into
the
place
where
he
was
,
the
vapors
cause
of
the
outrage
of
this
vnhappy
fortune
,
do
prouoke
him
agaynst
his
sonne
,
who
was
talking
with
an
honest
Lady
,
that
lodged
within
the
Castle
.
The
Ieleous
and
inraged
olde
man
fretting
with
anger
,
as
one
pressed
and
ouercome
with
chollor
,
no
lesse
then
a
Bull
,
compelled
through
famyne
or
desyre
of
companye
,
seeing
the
yong
man
,
entered
into
such
a
frensye
,
that
wythout
speaking
what
hee
woulde
doe
,
he
put
his
hand
to
his
sworde
,
comming
toward
his
sonne
,
he
sayth
:
Ah
infamous
traitour
,
is
it
I
that
must
seeke
the
meanes
to
adresse
thy
rybaudry
?
By
God
this
shall
be
the
last
instaunt
of
thy
lyfe
.
The
pore
infaunt
hearing
the
furyous
menace
of
his
Father
,
not
knowing
whereof
the
occasyon
of
his
anger
proceeded
,
sayth
vnto
him
:
And
wherefore
syr
are
you
so
out
of
your
modesty
?
or
what
is
y●
that
I
haue
done
agaynst
you
?
syth
you
are
so
extreame
rygorous
agaynst
mee
,
that
to
my
knowledge
,
haue
neuer
offended
you
.
The
insenced
olde
man
,
became
more
inflamed
by
the
aunswere
of
the
chyld
,
saying
to
him
:
Ah
infamous
chylde
,
canst
thou
talke
so
brauely
to
me
for
the
purgation
of
thy
wickednesse
,
thou
shalt
know
by
&
by
what
I
will
do
,
&
to
what
end
the
iust
anger
,
that
I
haue
conceiued
against
thy
impudency
and
temerity
doeth
tend
?
saying
so
,
he
rusheth
vppon
the
pore
infaunt
,
that
moued
not
,
who
seing
the
bloudy
sword
of
his
father
to
be
drawn
out
of
the
sheath
,
that
in
steede
of
thrusting
him
through
,
doeth
prepare
him
a
more
sodayne
death
,
for
hee
was
vppon
a
little
planck
,
that
aunswereth
to
two
lodges
,
which
had
no
barre
at
the
entring
,
to
stay
one
by
,
or
to
serue
for
the
assuraunce
of
the
waye
,
not
remembring
for
feare
of
the
blow
,
the
perrillous
place
where
hee
stoode
,
he
fell
immediatelye
from
highe
to
the
grounde
,
and
hys
euyll
fortune
was
so
great
,
that
the
fyrst
part
which
touched
the
earth
,
doth
beare
sufficient
witnesse
being
broken
in
peeces
,
&
sheding
his
bloud
vpon
the
ground
,
his
head
being
stroke
against
a
stone
sharp
in
the
ende
,
&
fastened
in
the
earth
,
so
with
hys
strength
at
the
same
instant
,
he
forgoeth
both
his
soule
and
hys
warme
bloud
,
which
runneth
out
both
at
his
nose
&
mouth
,
the
not
only
cruell
father
,
but
enemy
of
all
humanitie
,
not
contente
to
see
his
sonne
humble
himselfe
,
&
to
debase
him
before
his
face
,
thinking
that
the
chyld
had
fallen
by
his
own
will
into
the
dytch
,
sayth
:
Thou
hast
well
lopen
,
for
I
sweare
before
God
,
that
thou
shalte
dye
in
the
payne
,
out
of
which
thou
shalte
not
escape
my
handes
this
day
.
Alas
what
pitty
is
it
of
a
man
,
after
he
hath
wandered
out
of
the
limits
of
reason
?
Saule
once
enuyous
agaynst
Dauid
,
ful
of
the
spirite
of
intelligence
,
had
no
reason
in
performing
the
pursute
of
one
more
iust
then
hymselfe
.
And
by
prophane
wrytinges
,
who
did
mooue
Euristius
to
tormente
that
subduer
of
Monsters
Hercules
?
but
only
wilful
mallice
&
inueterate
enuy
:
truely
where
the
sin
is
not
very
euident
,
right
would
that
mercy
should
be
preferred
before
Iustice
,
&
it
is
more
prayse
for
any
Maiestrate
,
who
following
the
diuine
clemency
,
to
pardon
thinges
not
very
euident
,
&
not
so
cruelly
to
excercise
the
sword
of
vengeance
&
rygorous
punishment
,
for
it
cannot
be
otherwyse
,
then
that
he
which
excerciseth
himselfe
in
cruelty
,
shal
feele
such
a
torment
in
hys
mynd
,
that
in
the
end
wil
cause
him
to
dispaire
of
his
helth
,
or
else
to
such
a
sharpe
repentance
,
that
the
very
prick
of
that
opynyon
,
wyll
not
cease
for
the
moste
parte
,
wythout
accompanying
a
man
to
hys
buryall
,
so
it
chaunced
in
this
tyrannyous
old
man
,
who
hauing
descended
the
steppes
,
to
see
the
recouery
of
hym
that
was
altogyther
vnsencyble
,
he
behelde
a
spectakle
before
him
,
that
caused
him
to
forget
his
affection
,
that
he
bare
to
the
vnfortunate
,
who
had
adrest
his
body
thyther
,
he
seing
then
the
mischaunce
of
his
sonne
,
lying
in
such
poore
order
,
his
head
burst
in
peeces
,
his
body
dispearced
,
and
yet
styrring
,
was
moued
wyth
such
dolour
,
that
he
began
to
forget
his
Ielosy
and
to
feele
suche
a
remorse
in
his
intrayles
,
that
caused
him
to
detest
his
fortune
,
for
that
he
had
bene
so
blynded
in
his
concupisence
.
Alas
,
sayeth
he
,
vnhappye
Father

darest

shew
thy selfe
among
any
good
men

that
hast
put
to
death
such
and
so
honest
a
chylde
,
for
the
appetyte
of
so
impudent
a
Pallyarde
:
Ah
my
sonne
pardon
me
this
offence
,
for
I
assure
thee
that
I
will
make
such
a
solemne
amends
,
that
thou
shalte
haue
whereof
to
content
thee
,
and
they
whiche
suruiue
an
occasion
to
vituperate
my
fury
,
and
syth
this
my
hart
(
sayeth
he
,
stryking
his
brest
)
most
vnhappily
hath
receyued
the
pernicious
venyme
of
false
perswasyon
,
whereof
thou
hast
felte
the
bitternesse
,
it
shall
abyde
the
penitence
,
and
thou
my
body
,
shalte
serue
for
the
gyfte
and
last
sacrifyce
proceding
from
me
,
for
the
apeasing
of
the
shadow
of
my
sonne
,
towardes
whome
I
will
sende
my
spirites
,
to
requyre
him
of
pardon
,
in
the
obscure
fieldes
of
death
,
and
to
whome
I
will
sacryfyce
my
wicked
,
infamous
,
and
vnhappy
lyfe
,
which
my
sonne
being
dead
,
shal
be
more
weary
vnto
me
,
then
that
darke
voyage
,
or
any
other
thing
that
may
disquiet
mee
at
al
,
hauing
sayd
so
,
weeping
sorrowfully
,
he
imbraceth
the
body
of
his
sonne
,
and
beholding
his
sword
,
he
sayeth
.
But
go
to
then
,
syth
his
soule
is
departed
,
and
his
desteny
hath
taken
him
awaye
,
murder
him
that
hath
executed
murder
,
in
the
person
of
him
,
whome
he
ought
to
loue
moste
.
These
wordes
ended
,
mooued
wyth
a
dyuilish
dispayre
,
stamping
lyke
a
Lyon
,
and
pricked
forwarde
I
knowe
not
of
what
Furye
,
as
a
wylde
Bore
whetting
his
Tuskes
,
after
he
is
hurte
by
some
mischaunce
,
tourning
the
mischiefe
vpon
himselfe
,
in
falling
on
the
poynt
of
the
sworde
,
which
passeth
through
the
center
of
the
hart
,
he
tombleth
vpon
the
corpes
of
his
sonne
,
yet
warme
and
styrring
,
and
so
sheding
the
common
bloud
of
them
two
,
he
rendereth
vp
his
soule
to
him
,
to
whome
hee
had
so
long
vowed
it
,
by
his
wicked
and
impure
lyfe
.
What
harte
is
there
that
hauing
red
this
,
or
in
making
rehearsal
,
but
would
bewayle
the
chance
and
misfortune
of
this
desperate
old
man
,
who
truely
had
bene
excusable
in
his
fury
,
if
the
deuill
had
not
taken
away
his
sences
,
and
forced
him
by
the
inormitye
of
hys
vyce
,
and
by
the
greatnesse
of
his
synnes
,
to
destroye
his
owne
soule
.
These
be
examples
that
bee
set
forth
for
our
instruction
,
to
the
end
that
the
perrill
of
an
other
should
induce
vs
to
beseech
God
that
hee
woulde
delyuer
vs
from
the
spirite
of
obstinacy
,
and
awake
vs
out
of
that
dreame
,
whiche
doth
blynd
our
sences
,
in
following
the
flattering
desyres
of
our
concupisence
,
for
otherwise
it
were
great
pitty
to
behold
the
faults
which
we
commit
euery
houre
.
This
vnhappye
man
blynded
in
his
sin
,
forsaking
God
,
neyther
acknowledged
his
Iustice
,
nor
his
mercy
,
experimenteth
also
the
fruits
of
his
infidelity
,
wickednesse
,
&
obstynacy
,
leauing
behynd
him
,
the
memory
of
his
deeds
,
as
wel
for
the
aduertisement
of
al
men
,
as
for
the
imitation
,
&
deterring
,
not
only
of
the
aged
,
but
of
all
ages
,
to
auoyde
the
plagues
and
diuilishnesse
of
whoredom
,
which
do
bewytch
and
take
away
the
sences
of
men
,
the
end
whereof
is
death
,
and
punishment
in
the
infernall
lake
.
The
newes
hereof
were
disperced
incontynent
throughout
al
the
house
,
so
that
the
rybawd
which
had
adrest
this
deuise
,
hauing
heard
and
seene
the
whole
,
mooued
by
her
owne
offence
,
&
the
witnesse
which
her
mynd
did
beare
of
her
sinne
,
fearing
she
should
haue
Iustyce
,
if
she
dyd
not
immytate
the
illustryous
fact
of
her
detestable
louer
,
so
that
all
afrayd
,
she
runneth
to
a
pit
,
into
which
she
leapeth
headlong
,
and
wherin
shee
was
myserably
drowned
,
a
death
truly
,
althogh
it
was
furious
,
yet
to
good
for
the
punishment
of
the
detestable
mallice
of
a
woman
,
so
wicked
as
shee
was
,
which
merited
to
haue
all
the
paynes
togythers
,
that
euer
were
inuented
by
men
,
for
the
scourge
of
euil
liuers
.
Then
there
was
word
sent
to
Milain
to
the
Maiestrate
,
to
inform
him
,
who
hauing
in
examination
the
chamber
maid
,
that
was
the
ayder
of
the
desperate
Palyard
,
made
her
to
confesse
all
the
facte
,
wherefore
she
was
hanged
,
and
her
body
giuen
to
be
meat
to
the
foules
of
the
ayre
,
and
no
lesse
was
done
to
the
carcases
of
the
two
louers
,
which
agaynst
all
right
both
deuyne
and
humayne
,
had
vyolently
come
to
their
ende
,
and
as
for
the
yong
man
,
he
was
buryed
wyth
such
pompe
,
as
hys
vertue
did
well
deserue
,
&
was
bewayled
of
al
estates
,
for
the
modesty
that
did
apeare
in
him
,
by
which
he
hath
semed
to
immitate
the
Scipions
and
Fabions
,
who
once
liuing
with
such
temperance
,
haue
caused
their
glorious
names
to
remayne
euen
to
this
daye
.
So
always
the
death
of
the
well
lyuer
is
fortunate
,
for
besides
that
he
passeth
to
the
lyfe
,
whych
hath
no
end
,
and
goeth
to
inioy
the
holy
and
Godly
companye
of
the
blessed
soules
,
hee
doeth
glorify
his
memory
,
by
the
knowledge
that
the
posteritye
haue
of
his
vertue
,
which
is
so
grauen
and
imprynted
in
the
harts
of
their
children
,
that
neyther
Death
nor
tyme
hath
power
to
deface
it
.
Vppon
the
Tombe
of
this
yong
example
of
chastity
,
some
good
Poet
of
that
tyme
made
this
Epitaph
,
which
insueth
,
to
show
that
such
as
he
was
,
ought
to
be
praysed
with
such
Eglogs
,
and
not
any
of
them
which
haue
defyled
their
lyues
wyth
a
thousande
mischiefes
.
LOue
and
Ielosy
,
the
Vertue
and
the
vyce
,
This
yong
and
tender
lambe
haue
caused
:
A
fathers
wrath
vniustly
for
to
feele
,
By
outwarde
show
of
mallice
false
deceyued
.
And
eake
who
was
by
foolish
raging
yre
,
And
cruell
daungerous
vice
,
of
wilfulnesse
procured
:
Whose
soule
to
Heauen
,
and
body
to
the
graue
,
To
Heauen
and
earth
are
now
by
death
assured
.
Thus
hath
he
chaunged
his
lyfe
,
and
is
not
dead
,
But
liueth
with
God
reioycing
in
his
glory
:
That
caused
him
the
hauty
Skyes
t'assend
,
And
happy
to
haue
before
him
,
of
vertue
the
memory
.
Thus
being
dead
,
he
lyueth
without
sorrow
or
greefe
,
Therefore
thou
that
passest
by
,
thy
teares
refrayne
:
If
enuye
doe
not
cause
thee
to
bewayle
the
ioy
,
And
happy
state
wherein
the
dead
remayne
.

Such
is
the

of

auoyde
the

syth
the
vycyous
can
haue

¶
A
Mahometan
slaue
,
reuengeth
the
death
of
his
Lord
,
vpon
his
son
that
was
the
Homecyde
,
and
rendered
the
principalitie
,
(
being
chosen
of
the
people
)
to
him
,
to
whome
by
righte
of
Lynage
,
and
succession
it
did
appertayne
.
ABout
the
yere
of
our
saluation
1494.
After
that
Christopher
Colombe
,
wyth
the
Nauye
of
the
catholick
King
,
Ferdinand
,
sonne
of
Iohn
Aragon
,
did
dicouer
the
West
Ilandes
,
not
before
discouered
,
that
can
bee
founde
remembered
by
the
wryting
of
any
Hystory
,
eyther
auncyent
,
or
new
,
Lewys
Bartheny
Bolognois
,
as
he
himself
recoumpteth
in
the
ij
.
Boke
of
his
Nauigations
,
in
coasting
by
this
countrey
,
for
that
he
would
haue
knowledge
of
the
naturall
things
,
the
maner
of
the
liuing
of
those
straunge
nations
,
and
also
to
get
some
profyte
in
passing
by
Ethiope
,
he
arested
in
an
Ile
,
the
Capytall
town
whereof
is
called
,
Orme
,
not
distaunte
from
the
forme
Lande
,
aboue
twelue
myles
,
where
he
behelde
this
pittifull
Hystory
ensuing
,
of
an
execrable
sonne
,
and
of
his
crueltye
agaynst
his
aged
father
,
and
vpon
his
bretheren
,
yet
in
their
infancy
in
this
citty
.
Then
a
little
before
the
sayd
Bartheny
came
thyther
,
the
Soulden
there
,
was
a
Lord
of
the
secte
of
Mahomet
,
a
man
very
vertuous
and
gentle
for
a
More
and
Infydell
,
almost
an
hundered
yeares
olde
,
he
besydes
that
he
was
rych
in
Golde
and
pearles
,
syth
in
that
quarter
there
were
found
the
most
exquysyth
and
fayre
Pearles
that
one
shoulde
see
,
esteemeth
his
age
happye
,
to
see
himselfe
the
Father
of
a
leuen
sonnes
,
all
lawfullye
begotten
,
the
yongest
wherof
,
had
better
fortune
by
murther
,
then
good
chaunce
,
as
you
maye
see
by
this
which
followeth
,
for
the
eldest
contrary
to
the
rest
,
was
craftye
,
subtle
,
and
malicyous
,
&
the
most
dessembling
Palyard
that
was
in
all
the
countrey
,
who
studyed
wyth
himselfe
dyuers
tymes
how
to
become
imperious
ouer
his
bretheren
,
after
the
decease
of
his
father
.
But
the
Souldan
had
two
bondmen
that
were
of
that
Land
,
of
that
rich
&
famous
Monarch
of
the
Indyans
,
that
men
cal
Prester
Iean
,
these
two
Indian
slaues
were
so
well
affectioned
to
the
doings
of
their
Lorde
,
that
he
had
made
them
as
rich
,
as
any
of
his
Vassals
,
and
they
had
so
well
got
the
good
will
of
the
people
by
their
natyue
bounty
,
&
excellente
vertue
,
that
euery
one
doth
adorate
and
prayse
them
as
much
,
or
more
as
the
Prince
himself
,
thus
they
going
about
to
do
good
to
all
men
,
&
to
displese
none
,
made
no
report
to
the
Prince
,
of
that
which
afterwards
was
cause
of
the
ruine
of
some
of
his
subiectes
,
these
two
by
their
prudence
did
keepe
sylent
the
doinges
of
their
ambicious
yong
Lorde
,
not
for
that
the
Galland
did
thereby
lose
the
desyre
,
to
doe
that
afterwardes
,
which
one
would
not
thinke
nor
beleeue
,
towarde
his
father
,
notwithstanding
the
good
intreatmente
that
the
olde
man
shewed
him
,
for
the
nature
of
the
wicked
is
so
peruerse
,
that
the
more
a
man
assayeth
to
obtayn
his
good
will
,
the
more
he
addresseth
his
mischiefe
,
and
whetteth
his
teeth
in
murder
,
and
enuyous
for
the
exployte
of
his
wickednesse
,
because
his
harte
is
so
venimous
,
and
full
of
poyson
,
that
he
cannot
indure
from
executing
the
thing
that
is
contrarye
to
vertue
,
by
the
daungerous
infection
of
his
vyces
,
as
verye
well
appeareth
in
this
ambicious
and
cruell
tyraunt
,
which
could
not
indure
or
attende
,
till
Nature
had
fynished
that
,
wherof
she
had
begone
to
approch
,
and
alreadye
to
attayne
the
ende
,
he
purposeth
not
onely
tyrannyouslye
to
vsurpe
the
domynyons
of
his
father
,
but
to
execute
the
most
detestable
acte
vpon
him
,
that
a
man
can
eyther
thinke
or
ymagyne
,
that
is
,
to
murder
them
of
whome
he
had
his
lyfe
,
and
to
fyll
his
handes
with
the
innocent
bloud
of
his
Bretheren
,
and
for
the
beginning
of
this
Tragedy
,
hee
causeth
to
be
imprysoned
vnder
the
tytle
of
good
fayth
,
his
Father
,
his
Mother
,
and
his
bretheren
,
except
the
yongest
,
by
the
ayde
and
succours
of
some
of
the
house
,
as
good
as
hee
himselfe
,
for
truely
the
boldenesse
of
the
wicked
is
vanished
,
as
soone
as
it
is
excogite
,
if
it
want
companyons
to
attayne
the
ende
of
his
imperfectyon
.
Absalon
had
neuer
adrest
his
force
agaynst
that
Myrrour
of
pacience
,
Dauid
his
father
,
without
the
counsell
of
Achitofell
,
and
wythout
the
ayd
of
murmurers
,
that
abused
the
pacyent
clemencye
of
the
King.
But
O
good
God
,
what
enorme
and
straunge
Tragedyes
haue
euery
one
sene
in
the
Empire
of
the
East
,
that
is
stayned
wyth
the
bloude
of
Fathers
,
shead
by
the
Children
,
and
of
the
lighte
of
the
children
,
obscured
by
the
handes
of
their
owne
mothers
?
And
in
our
memorye
the
onely
desyre
of
raygn
,
hath
caused
that
at
this
day
,
the
crueltye
of
the
Vicont
Myllinois
,
shoulde
be
had
in
memory
,
to
declare
howe
many
wayes
the
ambicious
do
disguyse
themselues
,
to
come
to
the
end
of
their
desyres
,
that
I
am
constrained
to
say
,
that
our
age
is
so
wicked
,
and
so
voyde
of
pittie
,
that
a
man
shall
fynde
children
that
feare
not
to
put
to
death
their
fathers
by
venime
,
thinking
to
couer
their
wickednesse
and
greeuous
fault
,
by
the
meanes
they
be
not
bounde
by
any
lawe
ordayned
for
Paracydes
,
agaynst
whom
neyther
Moyses
the
fyrst
,
and
great
law
maker
,
nor
Solon
would
establishe
any
law
,
or
make
ordynances
,
assuring
themselues
,
that
it
were
vnpossyble
that
the
chylde
could
be
so
vnnaturall
,
as
to
stayne
his
handes
with
the
bloud
of
him
,
of
whose
substaunce
he
hath
had
his
beginning
.
But
to
returne
to
our
matter
,
this
wicked
sonne
being
possessed
of
al
them
of
this
bloud
,
that
he
thought
could
impech
the
execution
of
that
which
he
had
taken
in
hand
,
he
caused
their
eyes
to
be
plucked
out
of
their
head
,
The
Tyraunt
then
as
it
might
be
,
or
as
it
is
more
true
,
wearye
of
hys
lyfe
,
coulde
no
longer
auoyde
that
whiche
the
heauens
had
ordayned
for
the
iuste
punishmente
of
hys
vniustyce
,
and
demerytes
,
delyberatyng
now
wyth
hymselfe
,
to
take
away
the
light
from
the
eyes
of
the
two
aged
Indian
slaues
,
which
he
could
not
commodyously
do
,
as
well
for
the
reuerence
that
the
Souldyers
bare
to
this
lincked
couple
,
as
for
that
he
knewe
they
were
wel
beloued
,
and
cherished
of
the
people
,
wherfore
he
purposeth
a
new
treason
,
to
bring
his
desyre
to
passe
,
wythout
any
slaunder
,
and
without
incurring
the
euill
will
of
the
people
,
and
of
his
great
armye
,
that
is
,
in
practisyng
the
one
to
be
the
murtherer
of
his
companyon
,
and
afterwardes
to
punish
the
murtherer
according
to
the
law
,
&
his
deserts
,
therfore
he
causeth
the
more
ancyent
of
them
,
named
Mahometh
,
to
be
called
vnto
him
,
who
being
come
to
the
presence
of
the
Souldan
,
saith
vnto
him
:
It
hath
pleased
your
noble
maiesty
,
my
Lord
,
to
cause
me
to
be
commaunded
to
come
before
you
,
to
whome
I
am
obedient
,
being
here
readye
to
imploye
my selfe
to
any
iust
acte
,
wherin
it
shall
please
you
to
vse
my
dilligence
and
loyaltye
,
which
I
haue
so
well
shewed
,
&
with
such
integritye
,
during
the
lyfe
of
the
former
Souldan
your
Lorde
and
father
(
whome
the
great
prophet
Mahometh
feedeth
this
daye
with
delicious
Vyands
in
Heauen
)
that
there
is
no
man
which
can
reproche
me
in
any
thing
that
maye
in
anye
wyse
de●grate
my
name
.
That
is
the
onely
cause
,
sayeth
the
Tyraunte
,
wherefore
I
haue
caused
thee
to
come
before
me
,
assuring
my selfe
,
that
thou
wilt
be
no
lesse
at
my
commandement
,
then
thou
hast
bene
obedient
to
the
pleasure
and
wil
of
my
predecessor
,
I
will
that
thou
●i●erstande
further
,
that
if
thou
shall
serue
me
faythfully
,
in
that
wherein
I
will
imploy
thee
,
thou
shalte
not
repente
thee
of
the
deede
,
for
besydes
the
pleasure
I
shall
receyue
of
thy
seruyce
and
indeuour
,
thou
shalte
obtayne
a
Prince
so
much
thy
friend
,
as
thou
canst
or
wouldest
desyre
.
My
Lord
,
sayth
the
slaue
,
not
for
any
hope
of
ryches
,
being
so
terrestyall
a
thing
,
so
vayne
,
and
of
so
small
duraunce
,
I
will
go
aboute
to
attempte
anye
thing
,
neyther
to
see
my self
exalted
to
honours
and
dignityes
,
(
syth
this
is
the
Chayre
wherein
men
are
most
daungeroasly
placed
)
but
you
shall
beholde
me
ready
prepared
to
execute
all
your
honest
deuyses
,
onely
for
the
reuerence
I
owe
you
,
as
to
my
Lorde
and
Prince
,
whyche
I
trust
will
not
commaunde
anye
thing
,
that
without
stayning
myne
honour
,
and
blemyshing
of
my
conscience
I
cannot
execute
.
Then
the
slaue
thought
that
the
Tyraunte
woulde
haue
geuen
him
in
charge
,
to
haue
fetched
the
yong
Prince
out
of
the
Mosque
,
to
the
end
,
to
cause
him
feele
his
crueltye
,
whiche
the
good
man
woulde
not
haue
done
for
feare
of
death
,
nor
to
haue
bene
Emperour
of
all
Africa
,
as
he
afterwardes
sheweth
by
effecte
.
Be
as
it
may
be
(
sayth
the
cruel
Souldan
)
it
is
that
I
would
haue
thee
put
to
death
Caime
,
for
so
was
the
other
Slaue
called
,
syth
he
hath
done
me
such
a
displeasure
,
that
if
I
see
not
his
death
,
my
spirite
cannot
liue
in
rest
,
or
contentment
.
Ah
my
Lorde
,
sayeth
Mahometh
,
commaunde
me
any
other
thing
if
it
please
you
,
for
my
harte
will
not
suffer
mee
to
see
his
death
,
much
lesse
to
kil
him
,
whome
I
loue
as
myne
owne
lyfe
,
and
wyth
whome
I
haue
bene
brought
vp
euen
from
my
byrth
,
if
hee
hath
done
any
fault
agaynst
you
Lordship
,
let
hym
be
accused
publiquelye
,
according
to
the
custome
of
the
countrey
,
to
the
ende
hee
may
receyue
punishment
,
according
to
hys
desertes
.
The
Souldan
(
dissembling
his
despyte
and
cholor
)
aunswereth
him
very
courteously
:
I
am
glad
that
I
haue
such
a
seruaunte
in
my
power
as
thou
art
,
&
I
thank
thee
for
thy
good
aduertisement
thou
hast
giuen
me
,
concerning
my
duty
to
iustice
:
Moreouer
,
think
that
all
this
that
I
haue
sayd
vnto
thee
,
is
to
no
other
ende
but
to
assaye
thy
constancye
,
and
make
a
profe
of
thy
fydelitye
,
thou
mayest
therefore
departe
when
thou
shalte
thinke
it
good
,
and
hereafter
I
will
unploye
thee
in
some
better
thing
,
and
of
greater
importaunce
.
The
slaue
whiche
knewe
the
venyme
of
the
Serpente
,
and
how
deadly
it
was
,
fayled
not
after
hee
was
retyred
,
to
garde
hymself
from
the
bushments
and
treasons
of
the
Tyraunt
,
perswading
him selfe
that
he
would
assaye
that
agaynste
him
,
wherin
he
had
fayled
agaynst
his
companion
,
and
in
that
his
opynyon
deceyued
him
not
,
for
as
sone
as
he
was
departed
from
the
presence
of
the
Souldan
,
the
Tyraunt
inraged
and
invenimed
,
sent
to
seke
Cayme
that
other
slaue
,
vnto
whom
he
vseth
like
wordes
,
as
to
the
first
,
&
perswadeth
him
so
wel
,
that
the
wycked
Moore
sweareth
vnto
him
to
kyll
his
companyon
,
in
what
sort
he
could
.
Behold
whervnto
the
execrable
mallice
of
men
doth
extend
,
that
through
the
appetyte
of
a
pernicious
Tyraunt
,
the
one
friend
hath
coniured
agaynst
the
lyfe
of
him
,
that
a
little
before
,
had
refused
to
make
hym
to
lose
his
owne
.
But
alwayes
the
wicked
(
what
frawde
so
euer
he
doth
excogitate
)
falleth
into
the
pit
,
that
he
hath
prepared
agaynst
him
,
that
doubteth
nothing
of
his
treason
,
and
corrupted
harte
.
This
venerable
slaue
,
then
hauing
the
commandment
of
the
Souldan
,
he
departeth
,
m●●●ding
to
murther
Mahometh
,
to
gratifye
hys
Lord
,
who
moued
by
the
couetousnesse
of
that
which
the
Suborner
doth
promyse
him
,
&
by
the
obedience
which
the
subiect
oweth
to
his
soueraygn
,
&
without
thinking
what
is
the
nature
of
the
tyrant
,
who
pleased
with
discords
,
searcheth
nothing
but
to
imbrue
himselfe
with
the
bloud
of
his
Citizens
,
and
who
in
the
ende
excerciseth
his
cruelty
vppon
them
,
that
haue
bene
the
ministers
of
his
misdeedes
.
Cayme
then
without
feeling
any
remorse
of
Conscience
,
that
might
haue
withdrawn
him
from
his
purpose
,
came
towardes
Mahometh
his
Companyon
,
who
had
not
so
little
aduysement
,
but
in
his
hart
he
perceiued
the
matter
,
&
began
to
doubt
of
that
,
which
was
true
,
and
hee
helde
himselfe
more
assured
,
when
as
hee
behelde
the
murtherer
more
nearely
,
whyche
by
the
couler
of
his
vysage
,
gaue
sufficient
apparence
of
an
acte
not
common
,
that
he
would
commit
for
all
the
passions
and
motions
of
the
spirite
I
know
not
howe
,
by
some
naturall
meanes
ar●
euidently
knowne
,
eyther
by
the
face
,
voyce
,
or
exteriour
gestures
,
for
the
face
is
the
porte
of
the
harte
,
manifesting
the
will
and
secrete
desyres
,
that
one
would
assay
to
keepe
secrete
,
therefore
Mahometh
adressing
himselfe
towardes
him
,
sayth
:
Ah
false
murderer
,
and
disloyall
traytor
,
what
▪
wilte
thou
goe
about
to
execute
that
,
whych
the
Tyraunt
hath
wickedly
commaunded
thee
,
and
thou
haste
lyghtly
agreed
vnto
▪
nowe
I
wil
take
such
reuenge
of
thy
Corpes
,
as
I
haue
bene
requyred
tofore
,
that
men
a
long
tyme
hereafter
shall
speake
of
it
through
all
these
Ilands
.
Cayme
that
knew
the
humor
of
his
companyon
,
addresseth
himselfe
towardes
him
,
as
well
for
that
he
knew
him
to
be
a
valyaunt
and
hardy
souldyor
,
as
for
that
he
would
not
auow
anye
matter
agaynst
him
,
he
casteth
himselfe
at
his
feete
rendring
into
his
hands
his
sword
,
praying
him
to
pardon
this
faulte
,
that
he
had
attempted
,
more
for
feare
that
the
tyrant
would
haue
slayne
him
,
then
for
any
desyre
of
hurte
or
euill
will
that
he
bare
to
Mahometh
,
who
aunswereth
him
.
Wherof
thy
fault
proceedeth
I
am
not
ignoraunt
,
but
thou
couldest
not
by
any
thing
haue
better
shewed
or
more
euide●ly
manyfested
thy
dissoyaltye
,
whiche
if
it
had
taken
such
deepe
roote
in
my
spirite
,
as
thou
hast
receyued
,
and
taken
it
▪
into
thy
periured
harte
,
thou
mayest
assure
thy selfe
,
that
long
agone
thou
hadest
bene
dead
,
the
Tyraunt
satisfyed
,
and
I
without
a
companyon
,
and
as
it
might
haue
bene
without
lyfe
,
syth
this
Tyrant
in
pursuing
the
death
of
the
one
,
desyreth
the
total
ruine
of
vs
both
togithers
,
but
it
hath
pleaseth
God
that
no
treason
should
enter
into
the
mynde
of
Mahometh
,
and
that
he
shoulde
finish
the
course
of
his
age
without
reuenging
the
death
of
his
Lord
,
and
likewyse
the
wrong
that
without
his
desertes
,
hath
bene
purposed
agaynst
him
,
therefore
Caym
go
towarde
the
Souldan
,
and
tell
him
that
thou
hast
executed
that
which
he
commaunded
thee
,
and
for
the
rest
let
me
alone
,
for
I
will
prouyde
such
a
remedy
,
that
in
tyme
to
come
,
the
lyfe
of
the
vertuous
shall
be
in
more
assuraunce
,
then
nowe
they
be
in
perrill
vnder
the
tyranicall
gouernment
of
this
Dyuell
,
whome
by
Gods
help
,
I
will
punish
for
his
wickednesse
,
and
reuenge
(
with
a
priuie
iniury
)
the
wrong
that
he
hath
done
to
all
the
inhabitaunts
of
this
Ile
.
Cayme
hauing
escaped
from
such
a
daunger
,
promyseth
hym
to
doe
all
,
that
it
should
please
him
to
giue
charge
,
to
execute
,
whyche
was
to
hys
great
preiudyce
,
for
after
that
he
had
tolde
the
Tyraunt
how
he
had
bathed
his
sworde
in
the
blood
of
Mahometh
his
companyon
:
The
Tyraunte
full
of
ease
,
and
contentmente
began
to
showe
hymselfe
verye
familyer
,
then
comming
chearefully
to
imbrace
him
,
his
comming
was
no
more
ioyfull
to
the
pore
slaue
,
then
was
that
of
Ioab
to
the
two
Princes
of
the
great
Hebrue
Armyes
,
Abner
,
and
A●asa
,
syth
he
holding
his
lefte
arme
imbraced
and
infolden
about
his
necke
,
taketh
into
his
other
a
short
Dagger
,
wherewith
hee
stobbeth
the
pore
slaue
so
far
into
the
syde
,
that
he
tombleth
starke
dead
,
at
the
feete
of
the
false
and
trayterous
Lorde
.
This
is
the
happye
ende
of
the
wicked
,
that
cannot
at
all
escape
the
strength
of
Gods
hande
,
eyther
by
the
mynistery
of
men
,
or
by
the
cruelty
of
wyld
beasts
,
and
somtymes
by
thinges
without
lyfe
or
se●ces
,
prepared
neuerthelesse
for
the
exployte
of
such
punishmente
,
as
once
the
tree
was
the
●●ourge
of
Ab●a●on
,
whereon
he
was
hanged
by
the
horsemen
,
and
slayne
by
the
handes
of
Ioab
.
But
now
the
Souldan
thinking
to
reioyce
himselfe
for
the
death
of
the
two
slaues
,
whom
he
so
much
feared
,
not
hauing
well
put
vp
his
gleue
,
and
returned
to
his
seat
:
Behold
Mahometh
very
well
accompanyed
,
and
armed
at
a●poyntes
,
commeth
in
,
at
whose
arryuall
,
the
moste
parte
of
the
Souldyors
began
to
be
in
a
fury
,
the
others
laying
a
way
the
right
of
armes
rendered
them
to
his
mercye
,
but
he
which
sought
the
chiefe
,
made
no
staye
or
great
accoumpt
of
them
:
Thus
entring
into
the
chamber
,
where
he
behelde
the
stretched
Corps
of
Cayme
,
and
where
yet
was
the
Emperour
,
with
a
smal
company
,
who
seing
Mahometh
,
although
hee
was
surprysed
with
feare
seeing
hym
in
such
array
,
yet
making
a
vertu●
of
necessitye
,
comming
to
incounter
with
him
,
sayth
:
Ah
Villayne
,
sonne
of
a
Villayne
,
art
thou
yet
liuing
?
Yea
(
sayth
Mahometh
)
I
liue
in
despight
of
thy
Menaces
,
and
false
intentions
,
ready
to
send
thee
to
all
the
diuils
,
to
serue
for
their
pray
,
trusting
in
God
that
he
will
geue
me
strength
to
reuenge
vpon
thee
(
most
disloyal
of
al
disloyals
)
the
death
of
thy
innocent
parentes
,
of
whome
thou
haste
bene
the
inhumayne
bloodshedder
.
In
saying
these
wordes
,
&
putting
their
handes
to
their
▪
weapons
,
they
ioyned
togythers
,
and
although
the
Souldan
defended
himselfe
alwayes
very●
brauely
,
yet
the
slaue
,
a
man
very
strong
,
braue
,
hardy
,
and
always
brought
vp
in
warres
,
and
who
for
his
good
deede
had
the
ayde
and
fauour
of
the
God
of
that
Coast
,
acquyteth
himselfe
so
well
,
in
lesse
then
an
howe
〈◊〉
at
the
Tyraunt
was
able
no
longer
to
supporte
the
strength
of
the
blowes
of
Mahometh
,
but
in
the
ende
,
began
to
declyne
towarde
the
earth
,
the
slaue
by
little
and
little
became
victoryous
setting
his
shield
vpon
his
throat
,
to
make
him
to
yeelde
himself
,
which
being
done
,
he
causeth
him
to
be
streightly
bound
,
and
deliuered
vnto
the
people
,
who
sodaynly
rente
him
into
a
hundred
thousand
peeces
,
so
that
he
was
not
esteemed
to
be
the
chyld
of
a
good
mother
,
that
had
not
done
some
iniury
to
the
car
cases
of
the
miserable
tyraunt
.
O
iust
iudgemente
of
God
,
he
that
tofore
neuer
thoughte
himselfe
ynough
worshipped
of
his
subiectes
,
is
now
slayne
by
their
sedicions
handes
,
to
the
ende
that
euerye
one
shoulde
euidently
perceyue
,
that
goods
vniustly
gotten
,
alwayes
geue
the
salary
of
their
vniustice
to
the
greedy
desyrer
,
the
vyolater
of
right
,
and
of
all
religion
.
After
the
death
of
the
Souldan
,
they
made
dilligent
inquisytion
of
the
complicis
,
and
executers
of
his
cruell

FINIS
.
¶
The
Marques
of
Ferraria
,
without
hauing
regarde
to
fatherly
loue
,
caused
his
owne
Sonne
to
be
beheaded
,
for
that
he
was
found
in
Adultery
with
his
faire
Mother
in
law
,
who
lykewyse
lost
her
head
in
Pryson
,
by
his
commaundement
.
IN
the
lyfe
of
Phillip
Vicont
Duke
of
Millayne
,
sonne
of
Iohn
Galeas
,
he
that
so
often
made
warres
against
the
Florentynes
,
and
their
Lyne
,
then
raigning
in
Fraunce
,
Charles
the
seuenth
,
that
good
King
,
which
chased
the
Englishe
men
out
of
Normandye
,
the
moste
excellente
and
myghtye
Prince
,
Nicholas
of
East
,
the
thirde
Marques
of
Ferraria
(
he
that
for
his
singuler
wysdome
had
bene
sente
so
often
as
Arbitrator
,
to
determyne
the
controuersyes
,
that
chaunced
amongest
the
Princes
of
Italy
)
made
warre
agaynste
hys
owne
Cosyn
,
called
Azzo
of
East
,
which
with
the
ayde
of
the
Venetians
,
Florentynes
,
and
Bolongnoys
(
although
he
were
a
bastard
)
did
chese
the
sayd
Azzo
,
lawful
and
iust
successour
of
the
Marquisdom
,
out
of
Italy
,
&
constrayned
him
to
ende
his
dayes
in
exyle
,
in
the
Ile
of
Candy
,
aunciently
called
Create
,
&
he
because
Ferraria
was
obedyent
vnto
him
,
as
vnto
an
vniust
vsurper
,
doth
gouern
them
so
politickly
and
trayn
the
people
so
gently
,
that
neuer
any
of
his
predicessors
liued
more
quyetly
,
he
being
confyrmed
in
his
estate
,
espouseth
in
his
fyrste
maryage
,
the
daughter
of
the
Lorde
Frauncis
of
Cararya
(
after
the
Lord
of
Padue
)
by
whom
he
had
one
sonne
,
which
at
his
christning
,
was
called
Hugnes
,
the
bewty
&
phisnomy
of
whom
did
promise
some
future
dexterity
&
excellency
in
him
,
this
is
he
of
whom
I
intend
most
to
intreate
,
as
chiefe
cause
of
the
discription
of
this
history
,
he
was
surnamed
by
the
pleasure
and
wil
of
the
Father
,
the
County
of
Rouigo
,
and
kept
with
such
care
,
dilligence
,
&
study
of
them
that
had
the
charge
ouer
him
,
as
did
appertain
to
the
Chyld
of
such
a
Lord
as
be
,
which
commanded
ouer
Ferraria
.
Certayne
dayes
after
the
birth
of
this
yong
Prince
,
the
Marchioues
his
mother
departed
this
lyfe
,
to
the
great
greefe
of
her
husband
,
which
loued
her
no
lesse
,
than
his
own
self
▪
&
to
the
displeasure
of
all
his
subiects
that
wholy
had
tryed
such
curtesy
,
gentlnesse
,
&
liberallity
to
be
in
her
,
as
whose
lyke
memorye
hath
not
left
ingrauen
in
the
harts
of
the
posterity
,
this
yong
Prince
as
he
growes
in
yeres
,
giueth
such
testimony
of
his
future
vertue
,
&
wisdome
,
that
a
man
should
fynd
a
few
Lordes
of
such
a
raxe
in
all
Italy
,
that
did
excell
him
(
so
much
are
they
in
fault
that
suffer
themselues
to
be
ouercome
)
if
that
fortune
had
not
giuen
him
such
a
foile
,
as
the
processe
of
his
yeres
did
forbid
it
in
him
,
whych
had
giuen
such
a
beginning
to
his
honor
.
But
what
if
the
affectyons
of
men
doe
ebbe
and
flow
,
and
neuer
continue
in
one
state
,
as
the
vnquyet
mouing
of
the
sea
,
it
is
no
otherwyse
of
the
iudgementes
and
ordinaunces
of
God
,
whereof
there
is
not
one
left
vndone
,
without
coming
to
the
end
,
ordained
by
the
presence
of
him
,
for
the
ende
of
the
county
could
not
be
euil
,
as
euery
one
thought
,
by
the
coniecture
of
the
vertue
of
his
yong
yeares
,
but
beholde
the
ende
.
This
Marques
Nicholas
being
very
yong
&
lusty
,
after
the
death
of
his
wyfe
,
deliberating
with
himselfe
not
to
marry
agayn
beginning
so
well
,
as
he
that
had
the
euill
will
of
none
of
his
neighbours
▪
to
take
his
ease
,
and
to
passe
his
tyme
in
such
delightes
,
that
euery
nighte
he
chaungeth
his
pasture
,
and
continuing
his
wantonesse
,
doth
his
indeuour
so
wel
,
that
the
troupe
of
his
Bastardes
were
not
inferiour
in
number
to
them
▪
that
were
begotten
by
the
old
Priam
of
Troy
,
a
litle
before
the
Greeks
did
beseege
it
,
and
to
the
end
that
the
hystory
shal
not
want
any
thing
,
which
should
serue
for
the
succes
of
that
I
wil
se●
forth
,
touching
the
misfortune
of
the
county
of
〈◊〉
,
the
sonne
of
Nicolas
.
There
was
remaining
to
the
said
Marques
no
other
child
to
succede
him
lawfully
begotten
,
but
Lionel
the
eldest
of
the
B●●cards
,
after
whom
was
that
famous
and
renowned
Lord
Borze
,
the
sonne
of
a
Damsell
Senoyis
,
of
the
house
of
Tolomey
.
This
Borze
for
his
vertue
,
and
for
that
he
had
done
some
seruice
to
the
Romayne
church
,
was
created
and
erected
in
the
Dukedome
of
Ferraria
,
by
Paule
the
second
of
that
name
,
Bishop
of
Roome
,
then
raigning
in
France
Lewis
the
leuenth
,
and
Frederick
of
Austryge
,
holding
the
imperiall
Crowne
,
by
whome
afterwardes
the
sayde
Borze
,
was
proclaymed
and
made
Duke
of
Rege
,
and
Modena
.
But
retourning
to
our
purpose
,
the
Marques
hauing
now
long
tyme
lyued
wythoute
a
lawfull
wyfe
,
was
desyred
,
as
it
myghte
be
,
of
some
of
his
subiectes
,
to
perswade
himselfe
to
●emarrye
,
who
practiseth
so
well
,
that
he
taketh
to
Wyfe
,
the
Daughter
of
the
Lorde
Charles
Maletest
,
which
because
hee
was
puissaunt
&
of
great
Lands
,
might
command
ouer
many
Cittyes
and
Villages
of
the
Marches
,
and
Romaynes
,
who
had
the
name
to
be
one
of
the
moste
braue
and
sage
Captaynes
amongest
all
them
that
professe
the
Arte
of
war
in
Italy
in
his
tyme
.
A
little
after
the
Marques
,
who
although
his
wyfe
were
very
bewtifull
,
yong
,
e●elye
of
seuenteene
or
eyghteene
yeare
olde
,
lefte
not
to
haunte
lighte
women
abroade
,
that
it
was
thoughte
hee
had
taken
a
wyfe
,
more
to
satisfye
his
friendes
,
or
to
couer
his
wanton
and
effemynate
will
,
then
for
to
chasten
himself
,
and
to
increase
and
multiplye
his
rase
,
which
was
the
cause
that
God
for
his
punishment
sent
such
a
slander
into
his
house
,
worthy
surely
to
be
noted
,
as
well
as
it
is
strange
&
possible
,
if
the
memory
thereof
were
not
fresh
,
it
woulde
seeme
after
incredible
,
for
the
pacience
of
God
is
such
,
that
he
attendeth
the
conuersyon
of
the
synner
,
but
seeing
hym
indurate
in
his
wickednesse
,
doth
punishe
hym
so
sharpely
,
that
the
generations
ensuing
,
doe
beholde
the
sharpenesse
of
the
punishmente
,
and
marke
wherefore
that
good
Christ
,
second
to
none
in
pacience
,
doth
so
dilligently
set
forth
examples
,
to
shewe
that
there
shal
be
no
sinne
lefte
vnpunished
in
the
presence
of
the
Lorde
,
for
what
greater
ruine
can
come
to
the
house
of
any
Prince
,
then
the
dishonour
of
him
,
or
his
?
What
greater
sorrow
,
than
to
see
the
shedding
of
his
owne
bloud
?
and
it
is
alwayes
the
Iustyce
of
GOD
,
to
practise
that
vpon
them
,
whych
contynue
their
disobedience
,
accumylate
euill
vpon
euill
,
and
prouoke
the
Lorde
by
their
wyckednesse
,
as
did
this
Marques
,
the
wyfe
of
whome
,
seeing
herselfe
so
despysed
,
as
shee
that
presumed
ouermuche
of
her
bewtye
,
could
not
so
greatly
command
her
constancy
,
nor
so
well
moderate
her
affections
,
but
that
she
did
complayne
her
to
a
Damsell
,
whome
she
had
brought
with
her
forth
of
her
country
,
and
whome
shee
trusted
very
well
,
who
being
one
day
in
the
chamber
of
her
mistresse
,
seeing
that
in
secrete
she
was
sad
beyond
measure
,
&
that
dayly
shee
waxeth
worse
&
worse
,
was
so
bold
to
say
these
,
or
lyke
wordes
vnto
her
.
Madame
,
I
beseech
you
think
it
not
strange
,
if
the
desyre
that
I
haue
to
do
you
seruice
,
doe
make
me
so
bold
to
demand
of
you
the
cause
of
so
sodayn
change
that
I
perceyue
in
you
,
whiche
had
wont
to
be
the
only
solace
,
of
the
anguishes
&
sorrowes
of
my
Lord
your
father
,
by
your
plesantnes
,
if
perchance
there
happened
vnto
him
any
greefe
,
&
now
you
do
nothing
but
sorrow
,
sigh
,
&
complayn
:
I
beseech
you
Madame
,
if
euer
I
haue
done
any
thing
in
your
seruice
,
that
meriteth
recompence
,
to
do
me
this
pleasure
,
&
honor
,
to
tel
me
the
occasion
of
your
disquietnes
,
to
the
end
that
if
this
power
that
is
in
me
,
may
do
any
thing
for
your
contentment
,
I
wil
imploy
it
with
the
life
that
I
haue
vowed
so
long
time
,
to
be
obedient
to
your
commandments
.
Alas
my
friend
,
sayth
the
Marchiones
,
I
am
ashamed
,
being
such
a
one
as
I
am
,
so
to
torment
my self
,
beholding
me
so
contenned
of
my
Lord
the
Marques
:
I
assure
thee
,
that
if
the
hope
of
some
allegeance
did
not
comfort
me
,
thou
shouldst
behold
what
sacryfyce
.
I
would
make
of
my
life
to
the
crueltys
of
him
,
that
hath
made
more
accoumpt
of
one
of
these
common
&
despised
women
,
then
of
me
that
am
his
wyfe
,
&
not
inferiour
in
bewty
to
any
of
them
.
What
Madame
?
answereth
the
Damsell
,
haue
you
no
other
cause
to
disquiet
your self
,
then
the
foolish
loue
of
my
Lord
the
Marques
,
truly
this
is
a
very
small
occasyon
,
&
a
cause
more
then
fryuolous
to
vex
your selfe
,
lay
away
al
this
from
you
,
&
assay
to
liue
ioyfully
with
them
that
loue
&
esteme
you
,
attending
til
time
shal
cole
his
ardent
desyres
,
&
cause
him
change
his
affection
,
take
good
heede
that
he
haue
no
cause
of
miscontentment
,
for
to
quite
him
of
his
passions
,
apprehensions
,
&
vnsemely
companyes
,
in
the
meane
time
,
ioy
you
only
of
the
which
is
yours
,
not

such
foly
as
to
stain
your

,
by
vnlawful
acquaintance
with
any
other
then
of
him
,
which
is
giuen
you
for
Lord
&
Espouse
,
with
shortning
of

for

O
God
(
sayth
the
Marchyones
,
all
bedewed
wyth
teares
)
howe
true
is
that
,
which
euery
one
speaketh
in
a
common
Prouerbe
:
the
whole
can
easily
giue
councel
to
them
that
be
sick
:
Ah
my
friend
,
if
you
felt
the
disquietues
that
wil
not
suffer
me
to
take
any
rest
in
my
mynd
,
&
the
cause
of
the
bitternesse
that
doeth
bereue
me
of
my
sences
,
I
am
assured
that
hauing
pittye
of
me
,
thou
wouldest
councell
mee
of
an

,
or
else
helpe
to
execute
that
,
which
shoulde
serue
for
the
intyre
solace
and
contentmente
of
my
spirite
:
the
Marques
hath
led
this
lyfe
a
long
tyme
,
and
it
is
vnpossible
that
hee
shoulde
chaunge
,
but
by
death
,
or
extreme
age
,
and
in
the
meane
tyme
I
passe
my
tyme
in
vayn
,
accompanyed
without
comforts
,
that
procures
me
to
ouerpasse
the
night
with
teares
in
steede
of
rest
,
and
the

agaynst
my

I
am

that
shewes
me
no

no
not
that
which
he
oughte
by
the
sacred
rightes
of
those
bands
which
haue
conioyned
vs
togyther
,
would
God
death
had
taken
away
my
lyfe
in
the
Cradle
,
to
the
end
that
not
remayning
vnto
this
present
,
I
should
not
haue
felt
of
what
force
is
the
despighte
of
an
honest
Ladye
,
being
deceyued
by
her
husbande
:
Alas
,
howe
happye
are
they
of
base
condicion
,
that
may
wythout
great
conscience
inaculate
their
blood
,
that
doth
redound
but
to
the
shame
of
a
fewe
:
Ah
honor
and
Nobillitie
,
howe
tyrannously
doe
you
brydle
the
Ladyes
,
that
how
much
the
preferment
is
before
men
,
the
estate
of
all
should
not
be
alyke
,
to
the
end
,
that
the
people
should
not
shadow
our
brightnesse
,
more
then
the
re●own
of
the
common
sorte
of
men
and
women
,
which
dye
with
the
memory
of
their
deedes
,
that
are
buryed
in
the
same
tombe
wyth
their
bodyes
,
or
if
the
Lawes
did
as
well
punishe
the
disloyaltye
of
the
husband
as
the
symple
women
,
that
by
a
naturall
vyce
,
are
sometymes
forced
to
forget
themselues
,
euen
till
they
bee
ouercome
by
the
appetytes
of
the
flesh
,
how
ioyfully
woulde
I
reuenge
my selfe
of
the
iniury
which
that
periured
and
vnlouing
husband
hath
done
to
me
?
because
that
euery
couple
should
equallye
receyue
the
payne
and
punishmente
according
to
their
demerites
.
But
after
the
Lawes
were
made
,
they
were
Tyrauntes
ouer
vs
,
the
inquyetors
of
our
rest
,
and
the
common
Ennymyes
of
o●●
perfection
,
who
did
authoryse
them
without
the
syde
,
helpe
,
or
consente
,
of
any
of
vs
:
After
that
she
exclaymeth
,
as
one
halfe
inraged
,
saying
wyth
a
voyce
that
declared
the
vehemencye
of
her
torment
,
and
the
mutacyon
of
her
mynd
.
But
syth
I
must
dye
a
thousand
tymes
,
if
so
be
I
let
this
pa●se
without
punishmente
,
I
would
he
wel
knew
it
,
that
I
intend
not
to
lyue
wyth
such
griefe
and
sorrow
,
as
he
hath
geuen
me
cause
a
good
tyme
,
and
then
let
chaunce
what
may
,
for
this
is
a
torment
great
ynough
,
as
I
beleeue
,
to
abyde
such
a
Tyranny
,
and
to
feele
the
puissaunte
prickes
of
loue
,
the
better
whereof
is
no
lesse
to
bee
wyshed
,
then
death
,
hauing
sayde
so
,
the
Marchiones
holdeth
her
tongue
,
attending
the
aunswere
of
the
Damsell
,
who
hauing
a
long
tyme
bethought
her selfe
,
aunswereth
in
this
sorte
:
Madame
,
as
yet
I
neuer
had
experyence
of
what
might
the
force
of
loue
is
,
and
by
that
meanes
I
haue
neuer
felt
what
is
the
disdayn
and
sorrow
of
them
,
that
perceyue
themselues
deceyued
of
him
,
of
whome
she
oughte
to
bee
the
intyre
and
onely
beloued
,
yet
I
beleeue
neuerthelesse
,
that
the
passion
both
of
the
one
and
the
other
is
so
great
and
vnmeasurable
,
that
the
surplusage
of
the
alterations
that
trouble
&
greeue
the
spirite
,
are
nothing
in
respect
of
this
inexplicable
distresse
.
The
argument
of
this
,
I
take
of
you
Madame
,
the
Constaucye
of
whome
is
so
troubled
,
by
the
outrage
and
fury
of
Ielosy
,
that
heretofore
hath
●●uer
giuen
suspition
of
chaunge
,
or
miscontentmente
of
harte
:
But
O
God
,
I
beholde
and
perceaue
the
imbecillity
of
humayn
mynds
,
&
how
well
they
are
disquyeted
of
dyuers
&
vnlawfull
desyres
,
which
take
rest
no
more
in
the
stomack
&
thoughts
▪
then
the
sea
Sandes
,
instate
with
a
whyrle
wynde
,
in
an
extreame
hote
daye
.
Ah
Madame
,
where
is
the
great
Chastity
that
made
you
once
renowned
before
al
the
Ladies
of
Italy
?
I
beseech
you
assay
to
contayn
your selfe
in
that
honest
reputation
wherin
hythe●to
you
haue
lyued
,
to
the
great
contente
of
your
Parents
&
friends
.
What
?
if
reason
haue
so
little
force
in
you
,
that
you
deliberate
to
followe
the
vyce
of
wantonesse
,
and
to
search
another
for
the
accomplishment
of
your
desyres
,
then
the
Marques
your
husband
,
by
all
meanes
do
the
thing
so
secretly
,
that
the
house
wherof
you
are
come
,
receyue
no
dishonour
,
and
your selfe
merite
infamy
&
greuous
punishment
.
The
Marchiones
answereth
nothing
to
the
sage
admonition
of
the
wyse
Damsel
,
beginning
to
think
with
herselfe
,
not
by
what
meanes
she
mighte
wythdraw
her
husband
from
the
disordered
&
wanton
lyfe
that
he
led
,
but
rather
howe
shee
might
reuenge
her selfe
,
and
with
whome
shee
might
giue
him
the
counter change
,
in
punishing
him
by
the
same
faulte
.
But
reason
doeth
not
extend
herselfe
to
this
end
,
that
sinne
and
vertue
should
be
placed
alyke
,
for
vertue
is
the
superlatiue
aboue
her
,
contrary
,
which
is
put
vnder
her
as
a
subiect
,
for
the
instruction
of
anye
that
knowes
not
what
is
vyce
,
let
him
take
heede
it
fall
not
out
other
wyse
,
that
if
any
bee
forgetfull
of
his
honesty
and
voyd
of
good
maners
,
we
by
his
example
,
launche
not
forth
and
let
slip
the
brydles
of
our
harts
after
vice
,
as
after
some
rare
and
precious
thing
,
and
alwayes
thys
is
so
well
practysed
at
thys
day
,
that
men
esteeme
Vyce

by
the

Doeth

maye
thys
come
before
the
place
of
Equitye
and

?
and
meryte
no
reprehensyon
,
of
this
you
may
well
assure
your selfe
,
by
the
foule
deliberation
of
this
wilfull
Pryuces
,
whyche
doeth
suffer
her selfe
to
bee
so
blynded
by

that
doe
peruerte
the

becommeth
extreame
amorous
of

,
whose
wanton

oughte
more
to
feare

then
the
memorye
of
Death
himselfe

I
haue
declared
beefore
that
the
Marques
had
one
onely
Sonne
by
his
fyrst
wyfe
,
a
goodly
Gentleman
in
perfection
,
and
which
during
these
furies
of
his
faire
mother
,
was
attayned
to
the
age
of
eyghtene
or
twenty
yeares
,
it
was
he
of
whom
the
second
Phedrya
became
amorous
,
but
this
was
not
hee
that
deserues
to
be
put
in
the
vertuous
Role
of
Hypolytus
,
the
sonne
of
the
Amason
,
in
resisting
the
amorous
folly
and
incest
of
the
Marchyones
,
happy
was
that
Greeke
heyre
,
for
he
dyed
by
the
iniust
displeasure
of
his
father
,
whyche
was
no
shame
to
him
at
all
,
hauing
lest
,
in
that
whiche
the
other
did
,
that
hath
giuen
sure
testymony
of
his
loue
to
vertue
and
modesty
,
but
the
other
hath
made
his
vyce
and
naughty
wil
knowne
to
his
owne
Father
,
as
you
maye
easily
perceyue
in
the
readyng
of
thys
Hystorye
,
nowe
this
yong
Prynce
seeing
himselfe
intertayned
very
familyarly
by
his
mother
in
law
,
that
tooke
no
pleasure
,
but
in
the
contemplation
of
the
bewty
and
good
grace
of
the
county
,
did
neuer
thinke
that
suche
disloyaltye
coulde
lodge
in
the
harte
of
his
fathers
wyfe
,
&
therefore
he
deuiseth
to
requyte
it
her
,
but
with
such
reuerence
as
the
Chylde
oweth
to
the
mother
,
whych
she
taketh
not
for
any
denyall
,
hauyng
a
desyre
of
a
more
strayghte
familliaritie
with
him
,
whych
the
more
she
desyreth
,
the
more
she
is
inflamed
in
her
former
flames
of
loue
,
and
doing
her
dilligence
so
well
,
by
her
owne
selfe
,
because
that
the
yong
man
,
for
that

knewe
not
howe
to
take
heede
to
her

wanton
lookes

syghes
,
and
vuperfyte
words
,
that
to
one
more
subtil
,
might
easily
haue
discouered
her
passyon
,
shee
forgetting
and
despysing
both
her
honour
and
lyfe
,
(
if
the
Countye
had
made
the
reporte
thereof
to
his
father
)
doeth
deliberate
to
discouer
vnto
him
her
affections
,
for
,
(
saying
to
her selfe

howe
shall
I
cure
my
aleadged
euill
,
if
I
keepe
it
secrete
from
him
,
of
whome
I
intende

this

:
to
deuyse
the

of

,
that
I
doe
vnto
hym
,
truely
his
tender
youth
doth
denye
him
to
see
so
well
,
and
to
know
the
most
difficult
humour
,
which
were
ynough
for
a
man
that
perceyueth
the
deuyses
of
the
mynde
,
well
if
hee
were
so
subtle
and
expert
as
to
perceyue
it

wyth

,
whych
I
desyre
so
much

(
as
it

therefore
I
will
be
the

that
shall
expell

his
fayre
mother
,
she
comming
towardes
him
,
to
receyue
him
very
courteouslye
,
taketh
him
by
the
hand
,
and
causeth
him
to
syt
down
by
her
.
But
when
it
came
to
the
poynt
,
that
the
fayre
Lady
would
haue
addrest
her
trayne
,
her
hart
beginnes
to
leape
within
her
belly
,
her
sences
do
denye
to
fulfyll
the
offyce
of
the
exteryoure
members
,
for
her
tongue
was
mute
,
her
eyes
deiecte
,
and
her
vysage
chaunged
into
suche
a
Vermillyon
,
that
she
would
haue
abashed
the
vantcorrour
of
the
Sonne
,
and
surely
this
chaunge
was
caused
of
two
contraryes
,
that
is
to
wit
,
loue
,
and
shame
,
the
one
woulde
haue
her
shew
forth
her
greefe
,
the
other
direct
contrary

by
naturall
wyll
and
inclynation
,
but
in
the
end
,
the
more
vnperfect
and
lesse
puissaunt
in
the
good
cause
,
became
victoryous
,
for
the
Lady
,
after
she
had
syghed
a
good
space
,
with
out
speaking
any
worde
,
wearye
of
her
vndiscreete
sylence
,
as
shee
thoughte
it
,
in
the

breakyng
her
sylence
,
wyth
a
looke
whyche
was
suffycyente
to
enter
into
the
depth
of
hys
harte
,
(
suche
was
her
cunning
to
mooue
hym
to
compassyon
)
hauing
her
voyce
tremblyng
,
and
euill
assured
,
for
the
contynuaunce
of
that
whych
she
felte
in
her

sustayning
dyuers
affections
that
mooued
her
spirite
,
she
tooke
the
yong
Prynce
delicately
by
the
fayre
hande
,
saying
vnto
him
:
My
Lorde
,
if
I
had
not
manye
occasyons
to
addresse
my
lamentations
,
and
iust
complaynts
,
you
may
beleeue
,
if
it
please
you
,
that
I
am
not
so
vnshamfaste
,
as
to
deceyue
your
eares
,
and
by
myne
own
meanes
to
manifest
before
you
a
thing
,
that
although
as
it
may
be
,
you
shal
thinke
it
very
straunge
,
yet
it
doth
touch
you
so
neare
,
that
for
the
loue
which
I
beare
you
,
that
are
more
deare
vnto
me
then
you
thinke
,
I
cannot
,
nor
am
able
to
keepe
it
from
you
,
for
in
so
doing
,
I
shoulde
wilfully
betray
you
,
&
should
doe
both
against
my
conscience
,
and
the
duty
of
her
towardes
you
,
that
holdeth
the
place
wherein
I
am
,
I
know
you
are
not
ignoraunte
of
the
lyfe
that
the
Marques
your
Father
hath
ledde
,
synce
the
death
of
her
of
good
memory
,
your
Ladye
and
mother
,
and
what
troupe
of
Bastardes
euery
one
seeth
at
this
day
in
your
house
,
which
if
God
doe
not
otherwyse
prouyde
,
shall
vse
no
lesse
inhumanitye
one
day
towards
you
,
then
your
father
did
once
towards
his
Cosyn
,
the
lawfull
inheritour
of
this
countrey
,
whome
he
expulsed
,
&
sent
in
exile
into
Candy
,
for
I
see
as
well
the
small
account
they
make
of
you
,
as
of
me
,
which
haue
wished
a
hundered
tunes
that
I
had
neuer
come
into
this
country
,
not
only
for
the
greefs
that
I
haue
felt
,
but
also
for
that
I
forsee
the
mischiefs
that
are
prepared
for
you
,
if
you
doe
not
wysely
preuent
them
,
I
neither
do
nor
would
haue
you
think
,
that
I
counsell
you
to
fil
your
hands
with
the
blood
&
life
of
him
,
of
whom
you
had
your
beginning
,
but
I
would
haue
you
vnderstand
,
that
I
giue
you
this
aduyse
,
that
you
open
the
eye
of
your
intendment
,
to
forsee
to
what
end
these
things
may
turne
,
and
as
for
mee
,
there
is
nothing
in
my
power
,
wherwith
I
will
fayle
to
succour
you
,
sith
it
is
euen
you
,
to
say
the
truth
(
saith
she
)
imbrasing
&
kissing
him
,
my
deare
friend
,
whom
I
loue
&
esteme
more
then
any
man
that
liues
,
which
if
it
please
you
▪
I
wil
cause
you
know
by
experience
.
O
would
to
God
that
the
hower
of
my
alyans
had
succeded
after
my
mind
,
truely
no
other
should
haue
inioyd
the
daughter
of
the
Lord
Maletest
,
then
the
County
Hugnes
,
for
when
my
Lord
&
Father
did
intreate
with
me
for
the
mariage
of
the
Lorde
of
Ferraria
,
it
was
you
whome
he
talked
with
me
of
,
&
not
the
Marques
,
God
pardon
the
folly
of
him
,
that
so
fouly
deceyued
me
,
syth
the
vnyon
of
vs
two
had
bene
far
better
denysed
,
than
with
your
Father
,
the
age
equal
,
&
the
cōfyrmity
of
maners
that
might
haue
conioyned
vs
with
a
perpetual
band
,
which
now
am
bound
against
my
wil
to
him
that
despiseth
me
,
&
who
it
is
that
loueth
&
cherisheth
the
mothers
of
them
that
one
day
,
as
it
may
chance
,
shall
depryue
you
both
of
your
honour
&
lyfe
,
then
thinke
my
Lord
what
sorrow
it
should
be
to
me
,
in
that
I
had
lost
the
meanes
to
bee
perpetually
yours
,
and
consyder
what
should
be
my
lyfe
to
come
,
(
louing
you
as
I
doe
)
if
I
should
see
the
ruine
,
and
destructyon
of
your
estate
.
Alas
,
God
is
my
wytnesse
,
wyth
what
anguyshe
I
open
these
my
secretes
vnto
you
,
for
the
desyre
that
I
haue
,
that
you
mighte
be
wholy
myne
,
as
I
am
yours
,
is
so
ingrafted
in
my
harte
,
that
only
death
must
make
the
seperation
,
in
saying
so
she
kysseth
and
imbraseth
him
of
an
other
fashyon
,
then
a
chaste
woman
doth
imbrace
her
Parentes
and
familliars
,
and
then
she
retourneth
to
her
former
purposes
,
saying
:
Therfore
my
Lorde
and
greatly
beloued
friend
,
bee
not
you
the
occasyon
of
the
death
of
her
that
seketh
to
increase
your
honour
,
and
thereby
doth
render
her selfe
of
a
most
vnhappy
,
the
fortunates
Lady
that
liues
at
this
day
,
haue
pittie
of
her
which
so
liberally
and
prodigallye
offereth
her selfe
vnto
you
,
but
if
crueltye
haue
more
place
in
you
,
then
the
prayers
I
make
vnto
you
,
and
the
synguler
loue
that
I
beare
you
,
kill
,
kill
,
I
say
(
my
Lord
)
thys
miserable
Lady
,
the
which
if
you
refuse
,
shall
not
cease
to
execute
that
vpon
her selfe
,
whereof
you
made
the
refusall
,
whych
will
be
the
occasyon
both
of
your
dishonour
,
and
the
losse
of
the
best
and
moste
loyall
louer
,
that
yo●
had
in
this
world
.
The
County
no
lesse
abashed
of
the
words
,
then
of
the
wanton
imbrasinges
of
his
fayre
mother
,
was
so
far
besyde
himselfe
,
that
without
aunswering
,
or
hauing
power
to
departe
from
her
,
remayned
no
lesse
immoueable
,
then
was
once
the
wyfe
of
Lot
,
tourned
into
a
piller
,
and
Rocke
of
Salte
.
The
Marchyones
who
was
excellent
fayre
,
yong
,
tender
,
and
delycate
,
and
whose
lokes
were
so
fyne
and
gracious
,
that
I
beleeue
,
if
the
most
wylfull
and
abstinent
of
the
Philosophers
of
former
tyme
,
had
felte
the
temptation
of
an
obiect
so
fayre
and
celestyall
,
they
would
haue
quyte
lefte
,
forsaken
,
and
forgotten
,
the
contemplacyon
of
naturall
causes
,
to
haue
geuen
themselues
to
execute
the
very
effectes
of
nature
.
I
thinke
also
if
the
Daughter
of
Mynos
,
had
bene
of
like
bewty
,
good
graces
,
attemptes
and
intysementes
,
as
was
this
Lady
,
I
doubt
not
at
al.
But
that
her
Hypolite
,
although
he
were
frowarde
or
lunetyque
,
woulde
haue
enioyed
and
cherished
her
,
and
lefte
Diana
,
to
haue
sowne
his
seedes
in
the
Garden
of
her
,
that
with
such
instaunce
requyred
him
of
mercy
.
Thys
fayre
Temptaresse
,
then
seeing
her
louer
in
such
alterations
,
and
so
surprised
with
shamefastenesse
,
also
because
he
had
not
showne
any
semblaunce
of
displeasure
,
with
any
thing
she
had
done
,
she
purposeth
to
passe
further
,
and
to
stryke
whyles
the
Yron
was
whote
,
to
the
ende
that
the
yong
Prince
,
during
his
dyuers
thoughtes
,
shoulde
not
measure
with
reason
the
greatnesse
of
his
misdeedes
,
&
the
abhomination
of
the
sin
which
he
committed
against
his
father
,
in
vsing
the
person
of
her
,
in
whom
the
blood
of
his
had
bene
mingled
.
Likewise
,
because
he
should
not
discouer
the
great
perrill
&
danger
,
wherinto
he
cast
himselfe
headlong
,
in
taking
the
vnhapy
counsel
of
the
wanton
counseller
.
Therfore
she
cast
her
arme
ouer
the
necke
of
the
Prince
,
kissing
&
imbracing
him
in
suche
sort
,
that
at
the
last
,
the
pore
County
yelded
to
the
assault
,
who
being
once
intised
by
her
vnseemely
pronocations
,
&
wicked
doings
,
not
only
fulfilled
the
which
she
s
on
aughtily
desyred
,
but
was
so
inflamed
with
that
rage
,
&
impoysoned
with
the
venim
,
that
loue
had
spread
ouer
the
coraly●e
cheekes
of
this
new
Phedra
,
that
beginning
to
set
apart
the
duty
that
he
owes
to
〈◊〉
father
,
and
to
the
honour
of
the
Nuptial
bed
,
the
vyolating
whereof
,
hath
euer
broughte
with
it
the
ruyne
&
dishonour
of
the
violaters
,
he
was
so
far
estraunged
from
his
former
modestye
,
that
he
kisseth
the
mouth
,
lippes
,
●yes
,
as
also
the
whyte
&
delicate
necke
of
the
Marchyones
,
then
passing
further
,
he
extendeth
his
hand
ouer
her
two
round
Dugs
,
that
by
their
equall
and
lyke
quantitie
,
cause
two
little
hils
eleuate
a
little
aboue
the
stomacke
of
the
fayre
Lady
,
at
the
entrye
of
which
,
there
breatheth
a
wynde
that
makes
th●●n
fynely
▪
ryse
and
fall
,
according
to
the
passyons
that
mooue
wythin
the
center
of
her
harte
,
he
then
beholding
hys
lycence
to
touch
any
place
of
his
pleasaunt
ennemy
,
putteth
his
hand
to
the
place
most
desyred
,
and
in
which
louers
seeke
to
obtayne
the
mercy
of
loue
,
&
then
feeling
her
●elly
that
was
round
,
hard
,
and
more
whyte
than
the
top
of
the
A●lpes
,
after
that
the
wynter
had
whyted
the
with
frost
,
she
then
shrinking
away
from
him
,
perceyuing
that
she
had
ouercome
him
so
fynely
,
shutteth
her
eyes
,
fayning
a
pleasaunte
and
no
great
displeasure
,
that
did
well
declare
her
desyres
,
sayth
v●to
him
:
Alas
my
deare
friend
that
cause
my
death
,
oh
that
you
would
quench
this
fyre
that
consumeth
my
lyfe
,
and
whereof
I
am
sure
you
feele
the
quick
sparks
,
at
which
word●s
,
the
prince
was
so
chafed
in
his
Harneys
,
that
without
vsing
his
former
reuerences
,
he
taketh
that
parte
in
Musicke
,
whych
he
neuer
tofore
had
cryed
,
and
found
the
accords
so
sweet
,
and
so
correspondent
to
his
pleasures
,
he
purposeth
to
continue
them
if
in
case
it
should
seeme
good
to
his
mistresse
,
which
was
not
so
vnplesant
,
but
that
hauing
found
the
beginning
so
well
done
,
by
the
measure
and
freedome
of
hym
,
shee
easilye
gaue
her
consente
.
Mark
and
behold
here
the
second
Acte
of
the
Tragedy
,
that
thou
mayst
see
,
if
the
ioyes
and
pleasures
of
men
may
be
pertual
,
&
if
it
be
not
more
a
doe
for
the
Nobles
to
keepe
secrete
their
folies
,
then
for
the
meane
sort
to
manifest
them
,
and
surely
they
are
a
great
deale
sooner
espyed
in
the
chiefe
of
the
common
weale
,
then
in
the
members
that
are
more
weake
,
and
of
lesse
puissaunce
,
for
where
the
heade
is
troubled
,
it
is
vnpossible
that
the
members
shoulde
not
feele
some
apprehensyon
of
their
mishappe
and
sorrowe
.
This
is
the
cause
why
men
intreate
alwayes
of
Prynces
,
and
make
so
small
accoumpte
of
the
doinges
of
the
pleban
sorte
,
the
memory
of
whome
vanisheth
away
so
soons
as
the
wynde
.
But
for
that
these
two
coulde
not
well
deuyse
all
thinges
themselues
,
wythout
hauing
a
thyrde
person
,
they
intende
to
imparte
their
affayres
to
the
Damsell
,
that
was
sent
to
seeke
the
County
,
and
which
doubted
of
that
,
whiche
they
had
done
togythers
.
To
her
then
,
after
the
County
was
departed
the
Chamber
,
enamoured
and
inflamed
of
his
louing
mother
,
the
Marchyones
,
addresse
her
wyth
a
countenaunce
more
gay
,
then
accustomed
,
saying
:
My
deare
friend
,
you
haue
seene
in
what
ease
I
haue
passed
my
tyme
hytherto
,
and
the
small
ioy
I
receiued
during
the
presence
of
the
Marques
,
but
GOD
hath
so
prouyded
that
hee
is
absent
for
certayne
dayes
,
to
the
ende
that
I
should
make
prouysyon
for
the
tyme
to
come
:
of
that
which
I
stand
in
neede
of
,
and
by
this
his
absence
,
might
get
my selfe
that
goodnesse
which
should
ende
all
my
euils
,
I
haue
chosen
me
such
a
louer
as
nature
cannot
shape
a
more
perfect
,
eyther
in
bewty
,
liberallitye
,
courtesy
,
or
worthynesse
,
and
so
noble
,
that
he
is
the
seconde
in
goodnesse
to
Nobillitie
herself
,
which
I
imparte
vnto
you
,
for
that
I
haue
knowne
you
hytherto
both
wyse
and
faythfull
,
to
keepe
my
secretes
in
such
sort
,
as
they
oughte
to
bee
,
also
you
are
she
that
hath
heard
the
communycations
of
my
former
affections
,
and
the
symple
obiections
,
for
the
apprehending
of
my
loue
,
reason
would
also
,
I
should
manifest
vnto
you
,
to
what
ende
all
this
tendeth
,
and
that
whych
followeth
,
trusting
onely
in
your
vertue
,
and
honest
discretion
,
that
you
wyll
keepe
secrete
this
facte
,
as
the
persons
whome
it
toucheth
doe
deserue
,
and
as
the
good
and
affectionate
amitie
,
whych
I
haue
borne
you
requyreth
.
And
as
she
would
haue
continued
her
purpose
,
the
Damsell
impacyent
to
be
sollicited
,
sayeth
vnto
her
:
Would
that
God
,
Madame
,
had
cut
of
the
threade
of
my
yeares
,
when
I
fyrst
set
my
foote
in
this
vnhappye
house
,
for
by
that
meanes
,
I
shoulde
haue
auoyded
two
euils
,
wherevnto
my
misfortune
doeth
throwe
mee
headlong
,
without
which
I
might
otherwyse
haue
lyued
,
for
(
all
his
Daughters
whose
I
am
)
it
shall
be
a
great

But

the

so

Alas

woulde

But
as
for

Madame

hold
you
assured
of
my
fayth

by
whiche
I
sweare
vnto
you
,
that
what
torment
soeuer
shall
happen
,
whether
it
be
sorrowe
or
death
,
how
ignominyous
soeuer
it

shall

Moreouer
Madam

imploy
me
in
what
it
shall
please
you
,
for
syth
the
thing
is
done
;
the
counsel
thereof
,
is
alredy
taken

&
you
shal
see
by
experience

how
I
am
mynded

in

it

Ah
my
dere
friend
,
them
sayth
the
Marchyones
,
how
your
wordes
haue
pierced
my
harte
▪
whereby
I
knowe
you
haue
told
me
the
truth
,
but
what
?
the
force
of
loue
is
so
great
&
vehement
,
that
I
cannot
tell
how
to
withdraw
myself
now
from
it
,
that
I
thynke
my
desteny
hath
done
it
for
my
contentment
,
&
also
because
amongst
all
the
humayn
passions
,
this
is
it
that
hath
the
preference
,
that
cannot
be
auoided
with
any
force
or
study
,
that
one
bestowes
,
&
therfore
I
desyre
you
to
talk
no
more
of
this
misfortune
vnto
me
,
for
we
wil
vse
such
prouidence
,
that
the
most
clere
sighted
shal
not
know
what
to
think
,
only
instruct
you
y●
County
of
that
he
hath
to
do
,
&
of
the
howers
at
which
he
may
cōmodiously
come
vnto
my
chamber
,
it
is
now
in
your
hands
my
friend
,
that
you
may
end
both
my
lyfe
&
honour
,
and
that
yet
holde
the
good
or
euill
Fortune
of
the
Countye
,
in
your
power
.
Thus
there
passed
certayne
Monthes
,
that
the
two
●oners
reioysed
togyther
,
wythoute
any
of
the
Coortyers
suspectynge
anye
thyng
,
of
so
detestable
a
Felonye
,
and
exeerable
abhomynacyon
,
who
although
they
behelde
the
courtesyes
that
the
Marchiones
shewed
to
the
County
,
&
whom
she
then
intertayned
verye
familliarlye
:
But
they
thought
that
she
did
it
to
please
the
Marques
,
to
the
end
that
hee
should
not
thinke
she
hated
the
children
of
his
fyrst
wyfe
,
and
also
for
that
as
I
sayde
before
,
the
County
was
so
honest
and
curteous
,
that
he
rauished
the
hart
of
euery
one
towards
him
,
which
did
yet
confyrm
the
opynyon
of
the
Gentlemen
,
that
this
amity
of
the
Lady
,
towards
the
yong
Prince
,
was
extended
onely
for
the
sole
vertue
&
gentle
nurture
of
the
Countye
.
But
Fortune
that
cannot
forget
her
Nobillitie
,
and
the
heauens
angry
for
an
acte
so
infamous
,
and
an
iniurye
so
detestably
committed
,
both
agaynste
God
,
and
agaynste
the
Father
and
husband
of
both
the
offenders
,
styrred
vp
a
more
wyly
and
subtle
discouerer
of
secrete
faults
,
which
is
Time
,
who
did
the
offyce
of
a
good
Seruaunt
,
after
that
by
the
very
foolishnesse
of
the
two
louers
,
their
folly
was
made
euydent
,
they
gouerning
themselues
so
vndiscretly
togythers
,
and
with
so
small
respecte
of
persons
,
tyme
,
and
place
,
that
in
the
ende
blynded
in
their
pleasure
,
and
glutted
in
their
ease
,
they
thought
that
Tyme
woulde
alwayes
haue
bene
so
fauourable
,
as
she
had
bene
almoste
the
space
of
two
yeares
.
Now
let
alone
the
Marques
of
Ferraria
,
that
doubted
nothing
of
the
great
dishonoure
that
his
sonne
did
vnto
him
,
and
of
the
false
connaye
of
his
wyfe
,
which
sent
him
vnto
Cornouall
wythout
a
Boate.
It
chanced
that
a
yeoman
of
the
chamber
of
the
myserable
County
,
beganne
to
suspecte
something
of
that
whyche
passed
betwyxte
the
two
infortunate
●onglinges
,
for
he
saw
ordinarilye
that
as
soone
as
the
Marques
was
gone
anye
nighte
into
the
Towne
,
to
vysyte
some
of
hys
Concubynes
,
the
Countye
fayled
not
to
goe
all
alone
oute
of
his
Chamber
,
whych
was
the
cause
that
he
assured
him
of
his
doubte
,
and
therefore
purposyng
to
seeke
out
the
truth
(
beholde
the
iuste
iudgements
of
God
)
which
seeing
the
mallice
that
men
haue
to
commit
euill
and
detestable
sinnes
,
often
tymes
giueth
speech
to
yong
Infantes
,
or
wysedome
vnto
Beastes
,
to
publishe
it
.
For
this
cause
hee
beginneth
to
spye
all
the
deedes
,
countenaunces
,
actes
,
and
wordes
of
the
Prince
:
and
the
enterpryse
of
the
gallant
succeeded
so
well
,
that
after
he
had
be
thought
of
it
,
beeing
in
a
Wardrope
adioyning
to
the
Chamber
of
the
Marchyones
,
marke
the
dyuyn●
permissyon
.
The
sinne
being
come
to
the
rypenesse
of
hys
abhominatyon
,
he
espyed
by
chaunce
a
small
hole
in
the
wall
,
whyche
was
iust
ouer
agaynst
the
Bed
,
wherein
she
lay
ordinarily
,
by
this
Creuyse
then
,
the
cleare
eyed
spye
,
hoped
to
see
that
,
whych
so
long
tyme
he
had
desyred
and
imagyned
,
and
as
he
saw
the
enemy
of
nature
before
him
,
he
makes
a
thousand
sygnes
of
the
crosses
▪
with
such
an
abashment
,
that
then
hee
woulde
not
beleeue
,
that
which
he
saw
euidentlye
with
his
eyes
,
in
the
end
beholding
the
thing
more
merely
,
and
perceyuing
that
he
was
not
deceyued
at
all
,
hee
sayeth
very
softly
to
himselfe
,
and
by
God
it
shall
not
be
long
,
before
I
will
also
make
the
Marques
to
vnderstand
it
,
to
the
end
,
he
may
punish
the
one
of
hys
foule
temeritie
,
and
the
other
of
her
great
wantonnes
,
&
lasciuious
incontynencye
,
now
he
attending
oportunitye
to
cause
the
Marques
to
view
this
pittyous
and
v●ruely
Spectacle
,
behold
it
chaunsed
two
or
three
dayes
after
,
the
infortunate
Prynce
,
not
doubting
the
treason
,
which
the
yeoman
of
hys
chamber
did
commit
,
that
so
sone
as
he
saw
hys
father
gone
into
the
stable
to
view
his
Horses
,
euen
then
he
went
into
the
chamber
of
the
Lady
,
to
continue
the
way
begon
,
within
the
bed
of
his
Lord
&
father
,
but
his
Argus
which
slepte
not
at
al
,
following
him
by
little
and
little
,
and
hauing
seene
him
enter
the
listes
,
returneth
towards
the
father
,
to
shew
him
that
,
which
so
long
tyme
he
had
desyred
,
&
to
make
him
iudge
of
the
vnfortunate
Louers
.
This
Traytor
(
although
his
fact
hath
some
aparence
of
Iustice
)
arriued
before
the
Marques
,
saith
vnto
him
,
al
abashed
&
astonied
for
that
he
had
sene
:
My
Lord
,
if
time
did
suffer
me
to
shew
and
declare
one
of
the
most
wicked
factes
that
euer
chaunced
in
Italy
,
I
should
cause
you
to
maruayle
,
and
(
as
it
might
be
)
by
resyting
so
straunge
a
thing
,
I
should
make
your
cheekes
to
blush
,
and
inrage
your
hart
,
so
abhominable
is
the
case
,
but
because
I
would
not
make
you
loose
that
discourse
,
may
it
please
your
noble
Lordship
to
come
alone
,
whether
I
will
conduct
you
,
&
where
you
shall
see
with
your
eyes
,
that
which
I
cannot
commodyously
resyte
vnto
you
in
order
.
The
Marques
which
was
a
man
of
a
good
corage
,
&
desyrous
to
know
rare
&
strange
things
,
went
with
the
guyde
euen
to
the
place
,
where
he
saw
the
act
playde
,
that
afterward
was
the
death
of
the
chiefe
persons
in
the
Tragedy
,
then
sayth
the
spye
vnto
the
Marques
,
I
beseeche
you
my
Lord
,
to
contemplate
a
little
through
this
creuise
,
what
lyfe
they
leade
in
your
absence
,
that
sith
you
are
present
,
the
disloyalty
of
them
that
be
most
〈◊〉
vnto
you
,
is
so
euidently
shown
.
The
good
Marques
had
no
sooner
looked
through
the
〈◊〉
then
he
spyed
his
sonne
interlased
&
●●foldē
about
the
neck
of
the
Marchiones
,
and
the
wantontoyes
of
the
Ladye
towardes
the
County
,
the
Father
of
whome
was
so
constant
,
that
hee
attended
to
what
ende
these
imbrasementes
and
toyes
would●
come
,
but
when
hee
sawe
the
Game
woulde
redounde
to
his
disaduantage
,
and
to
the
perpetual
infamye
of
hys
hoase
,
with
great
payne
he
obserued
himselfe
from
being
ouercome
wyth
rage
,
and
that
he
had
not
broke
open
the
dore
of
the
Chamber
,
vpon
the
Campe
,
where
were
these
couple
of
infortunate
Louers
,
to
haue
caused
them
to
dye
vpon
the
very
fact
,
alwayes
the
passyon
of
his
mynde
,
was
so
penetrable
,
that
he
coulde
not
by
a
good
space
remooue
from
thence
,
but
remayned
there
wholy
troubled
and
confused
in
teares
,
running
downe
along
hys
bearde
,
that
now
beginneth
to
waxe
white
,
in
the
end
,
euaporating
the
order
of
hys
harte
,
he
began
to
say
.
Alas
,
vnhappy
olde
man
,
that
I
nowe
shall
be
,
that
notwythstanding
the
flower
of
thyne
Age
,
arte
dishonoured
by
thyne
owne
bloud
,
and
the
substaunce
of
thyne
entrayles
,
what
is
it
the
onely
sonne
(
amongest
them
that
bee
lawfull
)
which
hath
vnlawfullye
abused
thy
Spouse
?
shal
I
be
both
the
witnesse
,
Party
,
and
Iudge
in
this
cause
?
and
in
executing
of
this
iudgement
,
that
I
must
needes
do
both
by
law
and
iust
displeasure
,
I
shall
put
to
death
two
persons
,
that
I
loue
beste
in
this
worlde
:
No
,
no
the
amitie
of
Maryage
shal
ende
here
,
towards
her
,
that
hath
put
oute
the
lighte
of
my
honour
,
and
hath
blotted
the
reputation
common
to
vs
both
,
and
the
charitye
of
the
father
towardes
the
sonne
,
shall
lose
his
force
in
me
,
syth
the
chylde
in
vsurping
the
Bed
of
the
Father
,
hath
geuen
coniecture
of
his
will
,
to
take
awaye
the
lyfe
of
hym
,
of
whome
he
had
his
owne
,
and
of
whome
hee
hath
stayned
the
honour
.
What
if
once
a
Romaine
Captayne
,
hath
punished
,
as
it
might
be
,
to
seuerelye
hys
sonne
?
in
that
hee
had
surpassed
his
commandemente
,
touching
a
certayne
expedition
in
deedes
of
Armes
,
whereof
although
hee
had
gloryously
attayned
the
wyshed
end
of
his
desyres
,
then
what
shall
I
doe
,
beholding
my self
so
vyly
betrayed
?
and
so
euill
dishonoured
by
him
,
whyche
oughte
to
bee
the
reuenger
of
the
cryme
,
whereof
my
eyes
haue
seene
the
execution
,
I
beseech
God
that
pytty
may
not
moue
my
harte
to
pardon
him
of
this
fault
,
or
to
dissemble
this
great
and
extreme
hartebreache
,
that
lyuing
,
causeth
my
death
,
and
so
reuengyng
a
pryuate
iniurye
,
I
shall
punish
the
most
abhomynable
synne
,
that
a
man
can
thinke
.
Then
for
the
quyetnesse
of
my
mynde
,
and
example
of
Iustyce
to
the
posteritye
,
my
sonne
shall
dye
wyth
the
vnshamefast
loue
,
whiche
was
cause
of
all
thys
,
and
by
whych
meanes
I
shall
depart
from
my
only
lawfull
begotten
sonne
,
and
from
my
honour
,
whych
is
more
dere
then
chyldren
,
riches
,
or
lyfe
.
The
sorrowfull
and
inraged
father
with
this
deliberation
,
seekyng
to
execute
his
deuyse
,
his
sonne
departed
into
the
base
Court
of
the
Castle
,
wythout
thinking
of
the
perrill
,
or
ruyne
,
that
hys
mysfortune
dyd
prepare
for
him
,
and
their
bandes
the
Ball
with
the
Gentlemen
of
his
age
,
where
was
greater
companye
of
people
to
see
the
playe
,
then
were
there
of
long
tyme
before
,
for
I
think
,
that
some
coniecture
of
the
future
Spectacle
had
broughte
thyther
thys
route
,
to
the
ende
that
wyth
more
shame
,
the
County
and
hys
incestyous
Louer
shoulde
be
imprysoned
.
Also
these
be
the
Menaces
,
wherewyth
God
threatneth
the
wycked
,
that
their
pryuye
sinnes
committed
in
the
obscurity
of
the
night
,
shall
be
one
day
punished
openly
,
and
to
the
sighte
of
all
the
people
,
duryng
this
then
,
that
the
vnfortunate
Prynce
(
more
braue
and
ioyfull
then
accustomed
)
did
contynue
hys
playe
,
behold
there
comes
the
keeper
of
the
Castle
,
wyth
a
good
troupe
of
Archers
,
wel
appoynted
,
he
in
the
presence
and
hearing
of
euery
one
,
addressing
him
to
the
Countye
,
sayeth
vnto
him
:
O
Prince
it
is
nowe
full
tyme
that
you
make
ready
your selfe
to
come
before
other
then
these

where
you
must
aunswere

putting

O

a

and
a
contynuall
punishment
,
that
wyll
neuer
suffer
them
to
take
any

,
whereof
comes
the
great
griefe
,
and
the
smal
assurance
that
they
haue
of
themselues
,
whych
are
so
troubled
by
the
very
interyour
iudgemente
of

that

whych
(
as

so
the

Countye
seeing
himselfe
sommoned
to
go

then
that
wherin

receiued
so
much
contentment
,
fayled
not

to

of

and
the
small

therefore

Go

for

I

attended
no

No

God

wyll

without
the
counsel
of
the
most
wise

learned
men
of

whych

conducteth
the

into
the
great
Tower
of

which
standeth
iust

And
duryng
this

there
were
some
gone
in
lyke
sorte
,
and
by
lyke
commandment
to
seeke
the
Marchyones
,
as
they
had
done
the
Countye
,
who
then
was
amongest
her
Gentlewomen
,
playing
this
song
,
as
the
Prognostication
of
her
misfortune
,
and
the
Prophecy
of
the
common
Buryall
,
that
vnyted
after
their
death
,
the
executed
body
both
of
her

THe
man
by
councell
of
the
Gods
,
In
this
low
earth
that
s
placed
:
Hath
not
so
many
ioyfull
dayes
,
But
one
mishap
hath
them
defaced
.
And
vnto
whome
hath
not
Fortune
assigned
,
For
euery
ioy
,
a
hundereth
greefes
to
taste
:
Why
should
I
then
my selfe
so
sore
annoy
?
And
shead
so
many
teares
,
day
and
night
in
waste
.
The
Pleasure
which
my
nourishment
doth
giue
,
And
cake
my
weary
troubled
mynde
doth
case
:
That
only
ioy
which
should
my
lyfe
sustayne
,
Is
fled
away
to
shorten
now
my
dayes
.
Alas
(
O
God
)
alas
,
what
meaneth
this
chaunce
?
That
of
myne
ende
so
sure
a
sygne
to

:
As
cake
a
token
playne
of
greefe
for
to
ensue
,
Of
much
vnrest
and
great
mischaunce
to
me
.
What
must
I
see
of
him
the
cruell
death
,
By
whome
my
perfectnesse
doth
come
:
O
God
,
O
God
,
that
all
things
doest
behold
,
Thy
holy

for
euermore
be
done
.
And
cause

,
To

thy
gloryous
throne
in
highest
Skye
:
Syth
euery
one
alyke
by

shall
ende
,
And
hyest
State
on

,
that

must

AS
soone
as
the
poore
Lady
atchieued
the
end
,
the
Marshall
of
the
Houshold
vsing
the
same
ambassage
to
her
,
as
before
to
the
Prince
,
carried
her
Prisoner
vnto
another
tower
,
a
good
space
from
that
,
wherin
the
Prince
was
inclosed
.
The
Marques
during
this
styrre
,
beholding
all
the
worlde
astonyed
,
to
see
a
thyng
of
so
much
maruayle
,
and
a
Spectacle
so
cruell
,
as
the
imprysonment
of
hys
sonne
,
that
shoulde
one
daye
suceeede
him
,
and
of
hys
wife
,
whom
he
had
so
derely
loued
,
because
men
should
not
accounte
hys
facte
vnlawfull
,
or
cruell
Tyranny
,
he
procured
sylence
to
be
commaunded
,
and
before
a
great
company
of
his
Barrons
,
and
houshold
Gentlemen
,
with
a
graue
Maiesty
,
that
exteryously
gaue
euident
token
of
his
interyour
greefe
:
After
he
had
spent
an
infynite
number
of
teares
,
accompanyed
with
sorrowfull
sighes
,
he
began
to
say
:
What
one
amongst
you
all
,
my
good
and
louing
friends
,
can
well
brooke
that
,
whyche
is
lately
done
by
mee
,
both
vppon
my
Sonne
,
and
vpon
the
Marchyoues
,
for
that
you
know
not
the
true
occasyon
,
and
by
that
meanes
,
you
esteeme
mee
an
vnkynde
husbande
,
and
a
Father
seuere
and
cruell
,
agaynst
all
right
and
reason
,
and
would
it
might
please
God
that
your
playntes
were
lawfull
,
and
that
I
had
done
wrong
in
thys
,
truelye
then
my
deare
friendes
,
I
should
haue
no
occasyon
to
make
you
partakers
of
my
heauynesse
,
nor
of
the
sheddyng
of
those
teares
that
you
see
runne
downe
along
the
face
of
hym
,
that
wythout
them
,
cannot
expresse
vnto
you
,
the
iuste
cause
of
hys
dule
,
and
also
the
greate
reason
of
hys
so
sodayne
crueltye
,
(
if
it
oughte
not
to
be
named
equitye
)
that
neuer
heretofore
hath
shewed
any
effecte
of
hys
mallyce
,
towardes
anye
man
that
lyues
,
if
fyrste
hee
haue
not
gyuen
hym
the
occasyon
,
for
it
is
no
lesse
prayse
worthye
in
a
Prynce
,
to
gouerne
hys
people
wyth
gentlenesse
,
equytye
,
and
clemencye
,
then
to
punishe
the
sedicious
,
and
disquyetors
of
the
peace
,
because
that
such
pacience
shewed
to
one
,
should
not
bee
the
common
ruyne
of
all
the
whole
people
.
Thys
is
it
,
wherevnto
he
oughte
to
extende
all
hys
force
,
no
lesse
to
chasten
the
temerritye
of
the
foolyshe
,
then
to
recompence
the

of
them
,
whyche
hath
serued
hym
faythfully
,
shewing
all
the
offyce
of
obedience
towardes
their
Lordes
.
What
if
the
law
doe
inioyne
this
duety
in
the
Vassall
and
subiecte
▪
towards
the
naturall
and
liege
Lorde
,
nature
conioyned
with
the

which
owe

their
Parents
honour

obedience
,

&
al

,
not
only
of
that
whiche
is
exteriour
,
but
also
of
the
interyour
it selfe
,
which
is
the
good
will
and
perfect
amitye
,
by
which
the
harte
of
the
Sonne
ought
to
be
vnyted
wyth
the
pleasure
and
wil
of
the
Father
.
But
O
immortall
God
,
what
Father
would
be
so
pittious
and
merciful
,
that
seing
the
Knyfe
of
hys
sonne
vpon
his
owne
throate
,
and
coulde
staye
him
,
would
suffer
him
to
depryue
hym
of
lyfe
?
But
what
?
lyfe
oughte
to
be
equall
to
honour
,
for
the
atchieuing
and
attayning
whereof
,
all
the
noble
and
gentle
myndes
haue
once
despyced
,
and
yet
do
despyse
their
lyues
?
Alas
my
friends
,
the
complaynt
which
I
make
before
you
,
is
against
my
sonne
&
wyfe
,
the
forgetfulnesse
of
whome
,
is
extended
euen
vnto
the
defacyng
of
myne
honoure
,
wherin
both
I
,
and
my
predecessors
haue
passed
our
age
,
I
wyll
bring
you
no
other
wytnesse
then
myne
owne
eyes
,
that
haue
seene
one
of
the
moste
abhominable
and
wicked
facts
that
a
man
can
think
,
it
is
that
which
I
cannot
speake
,
withoute
an
vnmeasurable
greefe
,
and
without
hanging
my
countenaunce
,
for
the
shame
hee
hath
done
me
.
That
is
,
the
County
Hugnes
hath
defyled
the
nuptiall
bed
of
the
Marques
of
Ferrarya
,
his
Father
,
and
the
soueraign
Lord
of
you
all
,
it
is
he
that
hath
polluted
the
house
,
that
is
counted
in
the
raygne
of
the
moste
noble
in
all
Europe
,
this
is
he
that
incestyously
hath
vyolated
the
secretes
and
prurities
,
the
entrance
whereof
,
were
lawfully
permitted
to
none
,
but
me
alone
.
To
whome
shall
I
complayne
?
and
who
shall
reuenge
me
of
thys
iniurye
?
Alas
,
my
harte
breaketh
,
my
sences
fayle
me
,
and
my
forces
are
weakned
,
only
there
remaines
a
desyre
to
do
Iustice
,
not
that
it
might
be
condign
to
the
abhomination
of
the
faulte
,
but
that
I
might
thereby
take
awaye
this
blot
from
my
stocke
,
and
moderate
a
little
the
greefe
that
prickes
me
,
and
whiche
yet
serueth
for
the
repentance
of
them
that
haue
offended
the
Maiesty
deuyne
so
greououslye
,
that
their
doyngs
haue
giuen
cause
to
them
that
come
after
,
to
blase
abroade
the
follye
of
their
youth
,
and
in
saying
so
,
his
speech
fayled
him
,
and
ouercome
wyth
sorrow
,
and
the
unpacience
of
his
cholor
,
he
founded
in
the
armes
of
his
Gentlemen
,
who
carryed
him
into
his
chamber
,
greatly
abashed
of
the
wickednesse
of
the
two
offenders
,
which
they
beleeued
,
as
wel
for
the
reuerences
of
him
that
did
wytnesse
to
haue
seene
it
,
as
for
the
remembraunces
of
the
impudent
lookes
,
and
lasciuious
toyes
of
the
Marchiones
,
towardes
the
Countye
,
that
made
them
thinke
it
was
she
that
made
the
pit
,
wherein
both
she
and
the
Countye
were
intrapped
,
as
sone
as
the
Marques
was
come
to
himself
,
there
was
no
man
so
bolde
that
durst
say
any
word
vnto
him
,
but
depending
wholye
of
the
wyll
of
their
Lorde
,
were
of
that
aduyse
,
that
the
processe
should
be
quickly
dispatched
,
and
that
Iustyce
should
be
done
to
the
two
Patientes
,
as
well
for
their
comfortes
,
as
to
gyue
some
contentmente
to
a
Father
rightly
duspleased
agaynste
his
sonne
,
and
as
a
husband
deadlye
hating
the
Palyardyse
of
his
wyfe
,
towardes
whome
he
sente
one
of
his
Counsellers
,
wyth
two
good
Father
Fryers
,
men
well
lyked
of
the
people
,
both
for
their
lyfe
and
learning
,
the
one
to
carrye
the
heauy
and
sorrowfull
newes
of
his
death
,
and
the
others
to
mooue
hym
to
repentance
of
his
synnes
,
and
to
pray
to
God
to
haue
mercye
on
hys
soule
.
As
soone
as
they
were
come
before
the
yong
Prynce
,
who
seeing
the
Counceller
,
and
hearing
the
sentence
of
his
death
,
hee
began
to
say
,
weeping
very
tenderly
.
Ah
vnhappye
flesh
,
and
fylthye
desyres
,
it
is
for
thy
pleasures
that
I
must
dye
this
daye
.
O
vnhappye
wretche
that
I
am
,
not
for
that
I
dye
,
but
because
I
am
the
procurer
of
his
choler
,
&
cause
of
his
dule
,
&
for
that
I
haue
set
such
trouble
in
his
house
,
as
shall
not
so
well
,
&
so
sone
be
forgotten
as
I
would
wysh
.
Alas
my
Lord
&
father
,
pardon
this
detestable
offence
of
him
that
hath
vsed
himself
otherwise
toward
you
,
then
the
chyld
ought
towards
the
father
,
I
confesse
I
am
the
most
myserable
,
that
euer
was
born
of
a
mother
,
&
the
most
detestable
that
the
Sunne
shyneth
on
this
daye
.
Alas
good
Lorde
,
suffer
not
my
soule
to
be
punished
,
seruing
for
the
pasture
of
that
vyle
serpent
&
deuouring
Lyon
,
that
doth
nothing
but
go
about
to
deceiue
and
invyron
vs
,
&
cause
vs
to
fall
into
his
lake
.
O
Lord
haue
mercy
,
haue
mercy
on
me
,
&
suffer
not
the
bloud
of
thy
sonne
to
be
shed
in
vayne
for
me
.
Alas
I
must
dye
,
not
for
the
confessing
of
the
fayth
,
and
glorifying
of
thy
name
before
men
,
but
for
my
owne
wickednesse
,
&
the
multitude
of
my
demerites
,
that
which
next
after
the
great
wickednesse
committed
against
thy
dyuyne
maiesty
,
doth
greeue
me
most
,
is
the
sorrowe
of
him
that
doth
,
and
will
redounde
to
my
mischiefe
&
dishonour
.
But
O
my
God
,
I
beseech
thee
to
comfort
him
,
&
giue
me
strength
pacientlye
to
abyde
this
infamous
&
cruell
punishment
,
that
I
see
euen
redy
before
my
eyes
.
The
Counseller
seeing
the
repentaunce
of
the
Prince
,
moued
with
compassyon
,
began
to
wepe
,
&
departed
out
of
the
pryson
,
went
to
make
report
thereof
to
the
Marques
,
who
aunswered
him
,
it
is
not
now
time
to
become
a
good
christyan
,
syth
he
cannot
escape
the
iust
vengeance
of
God
,
by
the
mynister
of
his
humain
iustyce
,
and
I
beseech
God
that
hee
will
pardon
hys
synnes
,
&
receyue
him
amongst
the
number
of
his
elect
:
saying
so
,
left
of
,
not
able
to
beare
the
sorrow
which
did
greeue
him
,
for
the
remembraunce
of
the
approching
death
of
his
sonne
,
wherfore
it
was
ordayned
that
they
should
be
quickly
dispatched
,
one
in
the
sight
of
the
other
,
and
this
was
done
,
for
that
the
Marques
would
here
no
admonition
,
for
he
heard
the
sentence
was
extended
as
well
vppon
the
Countye
,
as
vpon
her
,
that
had
made
no
sute
for
her
lyfe
,
because
she
saw
they
had
condemned
the
county
,
then
in
the
end
seing
she
had
done
the
faulte
,
she
appoynteth
with
her self
to
receyue
death
,
in
as
good
part
as
she
could
,
which
was
giuen
to
euery
of
them
in
their
tower
,
within
a
mynute
of
an
houre
,
not
without
an
infynite
number
of
teares
shead
and
besprent
,
as
well
by
the
Marques
,
which
could
not
dissemble
hys
affection
,
as
by
al
them
of
his
house
,
that
vniuersally
loued
the
fayre
couple
of
infortunate
Louers
,
the
vertue
of
whom
,
this
vlot
except
,
could
well
haue
no
comparison
,
but
a
lyttle
Leuen
,
as
sayeth
the
Apostle
,
doth
easyly
rayse
,
season
and
sower
a
great
peece
of
dow
:
likewyse
,
a
vyce
so
slaunderous
,
doeth
obfuscate
all
the
brightnesse
of
the
former
vertues
,
and
impoysoneth
the
good
sauour
of
all
the
forpassed
life
.
These
two
Patients
being
executed
,
whylst
men
were
preparing
of
rych
and
accustomable
Funerals
,
they
were
broughte
into
the
base
Court
of
the
Pallas
,
to
the
ende
all
the
world
should
see
and
beholde
the
cause
of
their
death
,
that
yet
renewed
the
teares
and
complaynts
of
men
,
as
well
for
the
one
as
for
the
other
,
bewayling
the
one
for
hys
worthynesse
,
the
other
for
her
curtesye
,
and
them
both
for
their
great
bewtye
,
and
youth
,
wherein
they
were
,
for
as
yet
,
the
more
aged
of
them
,
had
not
attayned
the
age
of
two
and
twenty
yeares
.
After
this
the
Marques
caused
to
bee
prepared
a
rych
and
sumptuous
furnyture
for
their
funerals
,
and
with
such
pompe
as
their
greatnesse
did
requyre
,
their
bodyes
were
broughte
to
be
buryed
in
the
couent
of
Saynt
Frances
,
and
there
was
erected
a
Tomb
to
be
the
common
bed
of
the
bodyes
of
them
,
whose
hartes
had
bene
surely
conioyned
togythers
,
when
they
were
alyue
,
so
these
two
myserable
creatures
had
a
small
ease
,
for
the
induring
of
so
great
a
punishment
,
and
for
all
the
contentment
and
satisfaction
of
their
desyres
,
they
had
this
only
good
,
that
by
one
kynd
of
death
,
they
both
should
ende
,
and
haue
their
bones
enioy
one
Sepulcure
togither
.
Here
it
is
good
to
be
aduysed
,
how
and
wyth
what
counsels
men
ought
to
forsee
thinges
,
and
their
accurrenses
,
before
they
be
executed
,
here
maye
you
gather
also
what
is
the
nature
and
condition
of
synne
,
which
once
ingrafted
in
the
harts
of
men
,
spreadeth
his
rootes
so
broade
,
that
by
great
payne
it
cannot
be
exterped
,
but
by
the
disolucyon
and
death
of
the
subiect
,
whereby
they
are
cheefe
cause
of
their
owne
ruyne
.
A
good
example
certaynelye
for
the
youth
of
this
age
,
which
without
aduysement
of
the
daungers
that
the
flesh
&
the
Prynce
of
this
worlde
doe
prepare
for
them
,
to
their
great
shame
,
vse
pryuate
companye
wyth
them
,
that
be
of
their
kyndred
,
wythout
aduysemente
that
the
moste
sage
haue
once
fayled
in
these
doinges
,
and
haue
perpetrated
the
thinges
that
are
vnworthy
to
be
thought
,
and
punishable
only
by
death
in
them
that
commytte
them
