I am resolv'd I will not to the Camp, A secret inclination does persuade me To visit my Erminia to night. Pis. Comes it from Love or Jealousy? Alcip. The first, good faith, Pisaro; thou'rt so fearful You shall to th'Camp before, And I'll be with you early in the Morning. Pis. Give me your hand, and promise to be calm. Alcip. Pis. I will not trust you though. SCENE III. The Court Gallery.
Yet now should even her best belov'd, the Prince, With all his Youth, his Beauties and Desires, Fall at her Feet, and tell his tale of Love, She hardly would return his amorous Smiles, Or pay his meeting Kisses back again; Is not that fine, Pisaro? Pis. Sir, 'tis no time to talk in, come with me, For here's no safety for a Murderer. Alcip. I will not go, alas I seek no Safety. Pis.
'Twill be unkind both to your self and me. SCENE VII. The Court Gallery. Enter Philander and Alcander with a Light. Alcan. He's gone, whoe'er he be. Phi. It could not be Alcippus. Alcan. I rather fear Pisaro, But we soon enough shall know: Who's this? Enter Erminia in her Night-gown, and lsillia with Lights. Er. Methought I heard Alcippus and the Prince Before the cry of Murder.
I all things said that might his Griefs beguile, And brought him to the sweetness of a Smile. To all I said he lent a willing ear, And my reproaches too at last did hear. Gal. Pisaro, 'twas the office of a Friend, And thou'st perform'd it to a generous end: Go on and prosper in this new design, And when thou'st done, the glory shall be thine. SCENE II. The Bedchamber of Alcippus.
Dress all your Looks, and be as gay As Virgins in the Month of May; Deck up that Face where Sorrow grows, And let your Smiles adorn your brows; Recal your wonted Sweetness home, And let your Eyes all Love become: For what the Gods have willed and said, Thou hast no power to evade. What they decree none can withstand, You must obey what they command. Enter Pisaro. Pis.
Alcip. So now, my Heart, I have redeem'd thee nobly, Sit down and pause a while But why so still and tame, is one poor Murder Enough to satisfy thy storm of Passion? If it were just, it ought not here to end; If not I've done too much My Lord, Pisaro Alcip. Pisaro, Oh, that Name has wakened me, A Name till now had never Terror in't! I will not speak with him. Enter Pisaro. Pis.
Have you forgot your Apparition, Sir? Alcip. Oh, 'twas an idle lying one, Pisaro, And came but to intrap me. To them Galatea, Aminta, and Olinda. Gal. Ah, Brother, why so cruel to your Sister? Phi. Here, Galatea, punish my misfortune, For yet I want the will to injure thee. Heaven knows what provocations I receiv'd E'er I would draw a Sword on him you lov'd. Gal.
On the wedding night the bride confesses her love for Philander and refuses to admit Alcippus to her love. The dauphin at the same time serenades Erminia at her chamber door, but Pisaro, a friend to Alcippus, meeting him, there is a scuffle during which Alcander, the prince's companion, wounds the intruder. The noise rouses Erminia who issues from her room and encounters Philander.
SCENE I. The apartments of Alcippus. Enter Alcippus and Pisaro. Pis. 'Tis much, my Lord, you'll not be satisfy'd. Alcip. Friendship's too near a-kin to Love, Pisaro, To leave me any Peace, whilst in your Eyes I read Reserves, which 'tis not kind to hide; Come, prithee tell me what the quarrel was, And who 'twas with; thou shalt, my dear Pisaro. Pis.
Alcip. When she can love to a discovery, It shows her Passion eminent and high; But I am married to a Maid that hates me: What help for that, Pisaro? And thou hast something too to say of her, What was't? for now thou hast undone me quite. Pis.
