Gito, who had not so much passive valour at the first blow, set up such an out-cry that the known sound of his voice reach'd Tryphoena's ear; who in great disorder attended with her maids, that were all like her self surpriz'd at the voice, run to the sufferer.
But to return, to the happy Regions of the Lunar Continent, I was no sooner Landed there, and had lookt about me, but I was surpriz'd with the strange Alteration of the Climate and Country; and particularly a strange Salubrity and Fragrancy in the Air, which I felt so Nourishing, so Pleasant and Delightful, that tho' I could perceive some small Respiration, it was hardly discernable, and the least requisite for Life, supplied so long that the Bellows of Nature were hardly imployed.
Every body was surpriz'd at the uncourteous Behaviour of so otherwise accomplish'd a Cavalier, but none could possibly give the least guess at who it should be the succeeding Diversions soon put him out of every body's Thoughts but Zephalinda's; she well knew it could be none but Abdelhamar, and trembled lest he should have been discovered, fearing his concealing his Recovery, and his disrespectful Carriage towards her Father and her Husband, might have given room to Surmises prejudicial to her Honour: but when watching him with her Eyes, and seeing him get off unfollow'd, or observ'd, she then began afresh to pine at Fate, who could render Abdelhamar Conqueror in every Action that he undertook, and only vanquish'd when he fought in hopes of gaining her."
The Crolians themselves were surpriz'd at it, and so closely had the Author couch'd his Design, that they never saw the irony of the Stile, but began to look about them, to see which way they should fly to save themselves. The Author was all this while conceal'd, and the Paper had all the effect he wish'd for.
Enter Cinthio, from the Closet, pulls Charmante out, they not knowing each other. Cin. Oh, this perfidious Woman! No marvel she was so surpriz'd and angry at my Approach to Night. Cha. Doct. Enter Scaramouch with a Light, and seeing the two Lovers there, runs against his Master, puts out the Candle, and flings him down and falls over him.
For ever since the naming of Don Fabio he had been very attentive; but before, his Thoughts were wholly taken up with the Beauty of the Face he had seen, and from the time she had taken him by the Hand, a successive warmth and chillness had play'd about his Heart, and surpriz'd him with an unusual Transport.
'For shame fond youth thy sorrows hush And spurn the sex, he said: But while he spoke a rising blush His love-lorn guest betray'd. Surpriz'd he sees new beauties rise, Swift mantling to the view; Like colours o'er the morning skies, As bright, as transient too. The bashful look, the rising breast, Alternate spread alarms: The lovely stranger stands confest A maid in all her charms.
I have, and am a little surpriz'd at the suddenness of it; and I my self am the unlucky occasion of it, to break it off, I told my Father how scurvily Isabella treated me, he thereupon sends for old Francisco, tells him of my complaint, and instead of disengaging my self, I find my self more undone. Cla. What shall we do?
''Tis true, the Justice of publick Actions, either in Princes, or in States, is no such nice Thing, that any Body should be surpriz'd, to see the Government forfeit their Faith, and it seems the Solunarians are no more careful this way, than their Neighbours.
