СКАЧАТЬ Command, into obedience. Feare, and Nicenesse

       (The Handmaides of all Women, or more truely

       Woman it pretty selfe) into a waggish courage,

       Ready in gybes, quicke-answer’d, sawcie, and

       As quarrellous as the Weazell: Nay, you must

       Forget that rarest Treasure of your Cheeke,

       Exposing it (but oh the harder heart,

       Alacke no remedy) to the greedy touch

       Of common-kissing Titan: and forget

       Your laboursome and dainty Trimmes, wherein

       You made great Iuno angry

       Imo. Nay be breefe?

       I see into thy end, and am almost

       A man already

       Pis. First, make your selfe but like one,

       Forethinking this. I haue already fit

       (‘Tis in my Cloake-bagge) Doublet, Hat, Hose, all

       That answer to them: Would you in their seruing,

       (And with what imitation you can borrow

       From youth of such a season) ‘fore Noble Lucius

       Present your selfe, desire his seruice: tell him

       Wherein you’re happy; which will make him know,

       If that his head haue eare in Musicke, doubtlesse

       With ioy he will imbrace you: for hee’s Honourable,

       And doubling that, most holy. Your meanes abroad:

       You haue me rich, and I will neuer faile

       Beginning, nor supplyment

       Imo. Thou art all the comfort

       The Gods will diet me with. Prythee away,

       There’s more to be consider’d: but wee’l euen

       All that good time will giue vs. This attempt,

       I am Souldier too, and will abide it with

       A Princes Courage. Away, I prythee

       Pis. Well Madam, we must take a short farewell,

       Least being mist, I be suspected of

       Your carriage from the Court. My Noble Mistris,

       Heere is a boxe, I had it from the Queene,

       What’s in’t is precious: If you are sicke at Sea,

       Or Stomacke-qualm’d at Land, a Dramme of this

       Will driue away distemper. To some shade,

       And fit you to your Manhood: may the Gods

       Direct you to the best

       Imo. Amen: I thanke thee.

       Exeunt.

      SCENE V.

       Enter Cymbeline, Queene, Cloten, Lucius, and Lords.

       Cym. Thus farre, and so farewell

       Luc. Thankes, Royall Sir:

       My Emperor hath wrote, I must from hence,

       And am right sorry, that I must report ye

       My Masters Enemy

       Cym. Our Subiects (Sir)

       Will not endure his yoake; and for our selfe

       To shew lesse Soueraignty then they, must needs

       Appeare vn-Kinglike

       Luc. So Sir: I desire of you

       A Conduct ouer Land, to Milford-Hauen.

       Madam, all ioy befall your Grace, and you

       Cym. My Lords, you are appointed for that Office:

       The due of Honor, in no point omit:

       So farewell Noble Lucius

       Luc. Your hand, my Lord

       Clot. Receiue it friendly: but from this time forth

       I weare it as your Enemy

       Luc. Sir, the Euent

       Is yet to name the winner. Fare you well

       Cym. Leaue not the worthy Lucius, good my Lords

       Till he haue crost the Seuern. Happines.

       Exit Lucius, &c

       Qu. He goes hence frowning: but it honours vs

       That we haue giuen him cause

       Clot. ‘Tis all the better,

       Your valiant Britaines haue their wishes in it

       Cym. Lucius hath wrote already to the Emperor

       How it goes heere. It fits vs therefore ripely

       Our Chariots, and our Horsemen be in readinesse:

       The Powres that he already hath in Gallia

       Will soone be drawne to head, from whence he moues

       His warre for Britaine

       Qu. ‘Tis not sleepy businesse,

       But must be look’d too speedily, and strongly

       Cym. Our expectation that it would be thus

       Hath made vs forward. But my gentle Queene,

       Where is our Daughter? She hath not appear’d

       Before the Roman, nor to vs hath tender’d

       The duty of the day. She looke vs like

       A thing more made of malice, then of duty,

       We haue noted it. Call her before vs, for

       We haue beene too slight in sufferance

       Qu. Royall Sir,

       Since the exile of Posthumus, most retyr’d

       Hath her life bin: the Cure whereof, my Lord,

       ‘Tis time must do. Beseech your Maiesty,
