A number of books lay on the little table books just suited to Maggie's taste. "There!" said he, rubbing his hands. "Don't thank me. It's all Erminia's doing. She gave me the list of books. I've not got all; but I think they'll be enough. Just write me one line, Maggie, to say I've done my best." Maggie wrote with tears in her eyes tears of love toward the generous Erminia.
On th'other side the Prince with dying looks Each motion watch'd of fair Erminia's eyes, Which she return'd as greedily again, And if one glance t' Alcippus she directed, He'd stare as if he meant to cut his throat for't. Well, Friend, thou hast a sure defence of me, My Love is yet below my Amity.
What, hast thou lost thy Wits? Fal. I had them not about me at the sight, I else had been undone: Alas, Erminia's dead, Murder'd, and dead. Alcan. It cannot be, thou ly'st. Fal. In a gay humour, but stone-dead and cold. Phi. Alcander, am I awake? or being so, Dost not perceive this senseless Flesh of mine Hardened into a cold benumbed Statue? He leads him out. Gal.
To move you, Sir, to spare Alcippus' Life. King. You are unjust, if you demand a Life Must fall a Sacrifice to Erminia's Ghost, That is a debt I have ingag'd to pay. Gal. Sir, if that Promise be already past, And that your Word be irrevocable, I vow I will not live a moment after him. King. How, Galatea! I'd rather hop'd you'd join'd Your Prayers with his. Gal.
Erminia's Spirit, in a glorious form. Pis. I do believe you. Alcip. Why, is't not strange? Pis. It would have been, had I not heard already She has this night appear'd to several Persons, In several Shapes; the first was to the Prince; And said so many pretty things for you, As has persuaded him to pardon you. Alcip. Oh Gods, what Fortune's mine!
