lose ye? _Cel_. At the Sack of _Antioch_, Where my good Unckle di'd, and I was taken, By a mean Souldier taken: by this Prince, This noble Prince, redeem'd from him again, Where ever since I have remain'd his Servant. _Sel_. My joys are now too full: welcome _Enanthe_, Mine own, my dearest, and my best _Enanthe_. _Dem_. And mine too desperate. _Sel_. You shall not think so, This is a peace indeed. _Ant_. I hope it shall be, And ask it first. _Cel_. Most Royal Sir, ye have it. _Dem_. I once more beg it thus. _Sel_. You must not be deny'd, Sir. _Cel_. By me, I am sure he must not: sure he shall not; Kneeling I give it too; kneeling I take it; And from this hour, no envious spight e're part us. _All_.

Let them speak then have power to stop a storm: I never lov'd to feel a House so warm: But for the Play if you dare credit me, I think it well: All new things you shall see, And these disposed to all the mirth that may; And short enough we hope: and such a Play You were wont to like: sit nobly then, and see: If it miscarry, pray look not for me._ * * * * * Epilogue, Spoke by the _Lieutenant_. _I am not cur'd yet throughly; for believe I feel another passion that
