Enter Galatea, Erminia, Pisaro, Aminta. Gal. And hast thou found him? Ease my misery. Pis. I have, and done as you commanded me.

Can you or he do so? Alcan. I do not say I can; but tell me then, Where be the Virtues of this mighty Man, That he should brave it over all the rest? Pis.
Madam, I have so lately 'scap'd a scouring, That I wish you would take it for a mark Of my Passion to disobey you; For he is in a damn'd humour. Am. He's out of it by this, I warrant you; But do not tell him that Pisaro lives. Fal. Pis.
