Mounseiur Barnavelt, I am sorry that a man of your great wisdom And those rare parts that make ye lov'd and honourd, In every Princes Court highly esteemd of, Should loose so much in point of good and vertue Now in the time you ought to fix your faith fast, The creadit of your age, carelessly loose it, I dare not say, ambitiously that your best frends, And those that ever thought on your example, Dare not with comon safetie now salute ye.

Oh, pray, forbeare the roome. Fer. Fy, Fy! two Brothers. Two Eaglets of one noble Aery, Pecke out each others eyes! Welcome from France! How does your honourd father? Man. Well, my Lord: I left him late in Paris. Hen. So, so; in Paris! Hath he 3 bodyes? Lorraine, Burgundy, & Paris!

If they had equall powre to man their wills And hope, to fling their miseries upon us, I that nere feard an Army in the feild, A body of most choice and excellent Soldiers And led by Captaines honourd for experience: Can I feare them or shake at their poore whispers?

What noble eye Will looke upon my Children strooke with miserie And say 'you had a father that I honourd; For his sake be my Brothers and my Sisters. Wife. There cannot be such crueltie. Bar.

I shall cry out fire if you doe; I had rather have some discourse to keepe me warm still. De. Or how the whole world was troubled with the wind Collick. Sis. No more Earthquakes, I beseech you. Some frends of myne lost a great deale of land the last terme, and for ought I know tis never like to be recover'd. Why, all these verses you have honourd me to heare were translated out of French. De.

You have something, then, to speake of our weomen when y'are in England. Pike. This Box, with a gold chaine in't for my Wife & some pretty things for my Children, given me by your honourd Lady would else cry out on me.

Farre be it from your thought, my honourd Lord, To wrest the hazardous fortune of the warre Into the bloudyer censure of the Law. Was it my fault that in the first assault The Canoniers were slayne, whereby our strength, Our mayne offensive strength, was quite defeated And our defensive part so much enfeebled That possibility to subsist was lost, Or by resistance to preserve one life? Ten.

The Prince likewise is necessitated alwayes to live with the same people, but can doe well enough without the same great men; he being able to create new ones, and destroy them again every day, and to take from them, and give them credit as he pleases: and to cleare this part, I say, that great men ought to be considerd two wayes principally, that is, if they take thy proceedings so much to heart, as to engage their fortunes wholly in thine, in case they lye not alwayes catching at spoyle, they ought to be well honourd and esteem'd: those that bind themselves not to thy fortune, are to be considerd also two wayes; either they doe it for lack of courage, and naturall want of spirit, and then shouldst thou serve thy selfe of them, and of them especially that are men of good advice; for if thy affaires prosper, thou dost thy selfe honour thereby; if crost, thou needst not feare them: but when they oblige not themselves to thee of purpose, and upon occasion of ambition, it is a signe they think more of themselves than of thee: and of these the Prince ought to beware, and account of them as his discoverd enemyes: for alwayes in thy adversity they will give a hand too to ruine thee.

Francisco Bustamente, late Captaine of the Castle, Stand forth accusd of Treason gainst his Maiesty. Bust. It is a language I not understand And but that by the rule of loyalty Unto my king and country I am made Attendant to the Law, & in this honourd Presence, the Governour & Teniente, Under whose jurisdiction I hold place, I would not beare nor heare it. Fer.

Fer. 3 hellish sins, Robbery, Rape & Murther. Hen. I'me guilty of all Three; his soul's as white And cleare from murther as this holy man From killing mee. Pedro. Hen. Man. But I comforted With the most heavenly apparition Of my deare honourd father. Fer. Take thou comfort By two more apparitions, of a father And a lost daughter, yet heere found for thee. Man.
