They were so struck with shame and sorrow at the sight, that they surrendered Alcander to him, and conducted him home with the utmost expressions of regret. Lycurgus thanked them for their care of his person, and dismissed them all except Alcander.
Ever while you live, you treat me too Well ever to hope. Enter Alcander, kneels, offers his Sword to Aminta. What new Masquerade's this? by Jove, Alcander Has more tricks than a dancing Bear. Am. What mean you by this present? Alcan. Kill me. Am. What have you done to merit it? Alcan. Do not ask, but do't. Am. I'll have a reason first. Alcan. I think I've kill'd Pisaro. Am. Fal.
Nay, prithee speak, Indeed I shall not be offended at it. Alcan. I know not why you should, Sir; She's where she ought, abed with young Alcippus. Phi. Thou speak'st thy real Thoughts. Alcan. Why should your Highness doubt it? Phi. By Heaven, there is no faith in Woman-kind; Alcander, dost thou know an honest Woman? Alcan. Many, Sir. Phi.
Coward, whom nothing but thy power makes strong; Whom Age and Malice bred t'affright the young; Here thou dost tyrannize to that degree, That nothing but my Death will set me free. Erm. and Isil. SCENE IV. Philander's Apartments. Enter Philander and Alcander. Phil. Urge it no more, your Reasons do displease me; I offer'd her a Crown with her Philander, And she was once pleas'd to accept of it.
If it's any other business, get it out of you, and then go off and take a swim with your old web-foot there!" Mr. Gammon concealed any emotion that the slur provoked. He came along to the table and tucked a paper under the Cap'n's nose. "There's what Squire Alcander Reeves wrote off for me, and told me to hand it to you. He said it would show you your duty." The selectman stared up at Mr.
They collected in a body against Lycurgus, and from ill words came to throwing stones, so that at length he was forced to run out of the market-place, and make to sanctuary to save his life; by good-hap he outran all excepting one Alcander, a young man otherwise not ill accomplished, but hasty and violent, who came up so close to him, that, when he turned to see who was near him, he struck him upon the face with his stick, and put out one of his eyes.
For cuffing Batson Reeves off the Widow Snell's door-step he had paid a fat fine, assessed for the benefit of the assaulted, along with liberal costs allowed to Squire Alcander Reeves. "They can't get any of my money that way," pursued the Cap'n. "I'd pay suthin' for the privilege of drawin' and quarterin' him, but a plain lickin' ain't much object. A lickin' does him good."
He, indeed, who forms his opinion of himself in solitude, without knowing the powers of other men, is very liable to error; but it was the felicity of Pope to rate himself at his real value. Most of his puerile productions were, by his maturer judgment, afterwards destroyed. "Alcander," the epic poem, was burnt by the persuasion of Atterbury. The tragedy was founded on the legend of St. Genevieve.
That's what against my will I must impart: But wish it please the Gods, when next we meet, We might as Friends, and not as Lovers greet. SCENE I. The Palace. Enter Galatea and Aminta, met by Philander and Alcander. Phi. So hasty, Sister! Gal. Brother, I am glad to meet you. Aminta has some welcome News for you. Am. My Lord!
I will not now dispute that vain reply, But force you to security. SCENE VII. The Palace. Enter Philander, Alcander, Galatea, Aminta, and Falatius. Fal. Ah, fly, Sir, fly from what I have to tell you. Alcan. What's the news? Fal. Ah, Sir, the dismal'st heavy news that e'er was told or heard. Gal. No matter, out with it. Fal. Erminia, Madam Phi. Erminia, what of her? Fal. Is dead, Sir. Alcan.
