be your Father by my age, which is
falne on me in my old Mrs service; he would have used me better.
_Y. M_. Dost weepe, old Crocodile? looke dost see this sword.
_Alex_. Oh, I beseech you, sir; goe to; what meane you?
_Y. M_. No harme to thee; this was my Fathers once,
My honord Father; this did never view
The glaring Sunn but in a noble cause,
And then returnd home blushing with red spoyles,
Which sung his fame and conquest. Goe, intreat
My Mother be as pleasant as she was
That night my Father got me. I am going, say,
Most cheerfully to finish her comaund.
_Alex_. Heaven prosper you. Ha!
_Enter Thurston_.
_Thu_. Freind, I was looking for you.
_Y. M_. And you have found me, Villaine.
_Thu_. What meane you?
_Y. M_. If thou darst follow me I will conduct thee
Unto the seate of death.
_Thu_. Dare! Ile goe with thee, hand in hand; goe on.
[_Exeunt ambo_.
_Alex_. Goe, goe to and goe to, I say and I sait; here wilbe some
revenge. If the Gent[leman] fall my lady has promist me a farme of
100 pounds a yeare; goe to, then. Now, if her sonn be slayne, heres
then this purse of gold and this rich Jewell which she sent to him.
By this wee see, whoever has the worst,
The fox fares well, but better when hees curst.[121]
Goe to and goe to then.
[_Exit_.
_Actus Quintus_.
(SCENE 1.)
_Enter Lady Marlowe sola_.
_Lady_. Twas[122] here about; these are the poplars, this
The yewe he named. How prettily thees trees
Bow, as each meant to Consecrate a branch
To the drownd lovers! and, methinks, the streame
Pitt[y]ing their herse should want all funerall rights,
Snatches the virgin lillies from his bankes
To strow their watry sepulcher. Who would
Desire an easier wafting to their death
Then through this River? what a pleasing sound
Its liquid fingers, harping on the stones,
Yeilds to th'admiring eare!
_Enter Thorowgood, Clariana, and Magdalen_.
_Mag_. This way she went, Ime sure. She has deliv[er']d
So many strang distractions that I feare
Sheele act some wilfull violence on her selfe
If we prevent it not.
_Cla_. Yonder is somebody among the Trees
Hard by the River: alasse, tis shee!
_Tho_. Come softly; if she heare our footing, her disp[aire
May] anticipate our diligence.
_Lady_. Tempt me not, frailty: I disdaine revolt
From ought the awfull violence of my will
Has once[123] determind
