stuck with adornment, Fit for a Princes welcome; what new game Has Fortune now prepar'd to shew me happy? And then again to sink me? 'tis no illusion, Mine eyes are not deceiv'd, all these are reall; What wealth and state! _Zab._ Will you sit down and eat Sir? These carry little wonder, they are usual; But you shall see, if you be wise to observe it, That that will strike dead, strike with amazement, Then if you be a man: this fair health to you. _Ar._ What shall I see? I pledge ye Sir, I was never So buried in amazement-- _Zab._ You are so still: Drink freely. _Ar._ The very wines are admirable: Good Sir, give me leave to ask this question, For what great worthy man are these prepar'd?

[_Musick. Song._ _Ar._ Bewitching harmony! Sure I am turn'd into another Creature. _Enter_ Hippolyta.
