supply,
And be above them all in dignitie. _Exit._

_Gui._ Why stand'st thou still thus, and applyest thine eares 100
And eyes to nothing?

_Cler._ Saw you nothing here?

_Gui._ Thou dream'st awake now; what was here to see?

_Cler._ My brothers spirit, urging his revenge.

_Gui._ Thy brothers spirit! pray thee mocke me not.

_Cler._ No, by my love and service.

_Gui._ Would he rise, 105
And not be thundring threates against the Guise?

_Cler._ You make amends for enmitie to him,
With tenne parts more love and desert of mee;
And as you make your hate to him no let
Of any love to mee, no more beares hee 110
(Since you to me supply it) hate to you.
Which reason and which justice is perform'd
In spirits tenne parts more then fleshy men;
To whose fore-sights our acts and thoughts lie open:
And therefore, since hee saw the treacherie 115
Late practis'd by my brother Baligny,
Hee would not honor his hand with the justice
(As hee esteemes it) of his blouds revenge,
To which my sister needes would have him sworne,
Before she would consent to marry him. 120

_Gui._ O Baligny!--who would beleeve there were
A man that (onely since his lookes are rais'd
Upwards, and have but sacred heaven in sight)
Could beare a minde so more then divellish?
As for the painted glory of the countenance, 125
Flitting in Kings, doth good for nought esteeme,
And the more ill hee does, the better seeme.

_Cler._ Wee easily may beleeve it, since we see
In this worlds practise few men better be.
Justice to live doth nought but justice neede, 130
But policie must still on mischiefe feede.
Untruth, for all his ends, truths name doth sue in;
None safely live but those that study ruine.
A good man happy is a common good;
Ill men advanc'd live of the common bloud. 135

_Gui._ But this thy brothers spirit startles mee,
These spirits seld or never hanting men
But some mishap ensues.

_Cler._ Ensue what can;
Tyrants may kill but never hurt a man;
All to his good makes, spight of death and hell. 140

_Enter Aumall._

_Aumale._ All the desert of good renowne your Highnesse!
