all And a reward I give in generall. _Fred_. Then take her, you deserve her were shee better, Making your Crown and life to be her Debter. _Duke_. Welcome a thousand times, welcome, sweete wife, Never more deare then now I have saved[205] thy life. _Valen_. This more then kindnesse I turne backe to you, Doubling my chast vow to bee ever true. _Fred_. Then here the warres end, here[206] our fightings marde, Yet by your leave Ile stand upon my Guard. _Duke_. Take any course you please, Citie or Towne, My royall word Ile keepe by this my Crowne. _Fred_. Then thus Ile take my leave. _Duke_. Since we must part, Farewell, my Sonne, all farewell with my heart. [_Exeunt Fred, and his [sic]_. _Mon_. Twas well, my Lord, 'twas a good policie, To gaine your bride: I hope your grace did not meane To be thus overrulde, by a proud Sonne. _Duke_. Why, thinke you he intends some treachery? _Mon_.

What thinkes my love of _Frederickes_ reconcilment? _Valen_. That he has spirit enough, to be a traytor. But I am beholding to him for a life And he may brag he gave your grace a wife. A [O?] good old man, he could not choose but feele For shame some small remorse to see you kneele. Pray God he gave me not into your hand That he might be the ruine of your land. _Duke_. Thinkes my love so? but, brothers, what's your censure? _Hat_. I am no Polititian. _Alfred_. Neither I: Wee are both content to live quietly. _Duke_. Hee may be a villaine tho' he be my Sonne. _Mon_. Why not? and worke your ruine like a foe. Had he meant well, why did he leave you so? Your noble heart was free from all deceipt, But hee's retirde to doe some dangerous feate.
