you Those fears you and your good Aunt put upon me, To make you sport, you had given a little hint, A touch or so, to tell me I was mortal, And by a mortal woman? _Ana._ Pray you no more. _Cler._ If I had loos'd that virgin Zone, observe me, I would have hired the best of all our Poets To have sung so much, and so well in the honour Of that nights joy, that _Ovids_ afternoon, Nor his _Corinna_ should again be mention'd. _Ana._ I do repent, and wish I had. _Cler._ That's comfort, But now-- _2 Gent._ Another that will have it offer'd, Compel it to be offer'd, shall enjoy it. _Cler._ A rogue, a ruffian. _2 Gent._ As you love your throat,-- _1 Gent._ Away with them. _Ana._ O _Cleremont_! _Lam._ O _Dinant_! _Din._ I can but add your sorrows to my sorrows, Your fears to my fears. _Cler._ To your wishes mine, This slave may prove unable to perform, Till I perform the task that I was born for. _Ana._ Amen, amen. _1 Gent._ Drag the slaves hence, for you A while I'le lock you up here, study all ways You can to please me, or the deed being done, You are but dead. _2 Gen._ This strong Vault shall contain you, There think how many for your maidenhead Have pin'd away, and be prepar'd to lose it With penitence. _1 Gent._ No humane help can save you. _Ladyes._ Help, help! _2 Gent._ You cry in vain, rocks cannot hear you. _Actus Quintus.
