Radiant!

V:2:2 2ND GUEST.
Recalls old days.

V:2:3 3RD GUEST.
The Queen herself
Ne'er revelled it so high!

V:2:4 4TH GUEST.
The Infanta beams
Like some bright star!

V:2:5 5TH GUEST.
And brighter for the cloud
A moment screened her.

V:2:6 6TH GUEST.
Is it true 'tis over
Between the Count Sidonia and the Lara?

V:2:7 1ST GUEST.
A musty tale. The fair Alarcos wins him.
Where's she to-night?

V:2:8 2ND GUEST.
All on the watch to view
Her entrance to our world.

V:2:9 3RD GUEST.
The Count is here.

V:2:10 4TH GUEST.
Where?

V:2:11 3RD GUEST.
With the King; at least a moment since.

V:2:12 2ND GUEST.
They say she's ravishing.

V:2:13 4TH GUEST.
Beyond belief!

V:2:14 3RD GUEST.
The King affects him much.

V:2:15 5TH GUEST.
He's all in all.

V:2:16 6TH GUEST.
Yon Knight of Calatrava, who is he?

V:2:17 1ST GUEST.
Young Mendola.

V:2:18 2ND GUEST.
What he so rich?

V:2:19 1ST GUEST.
The same.

V:2:20 2ND GUEST.
The Lara smiles on him.

V:2:21 1ST GUEST.
No worthier quarry

V:2:22 3RD GUEST.
Who has the vacant Mastership?

V:2:23 4TH GUEST.
I'll back
The Count of Leon.

V:2:24 3RD GUEST.
Likely; he stands well
With the Lord Admiral.

[They move away.]

[The Counts of SIDONIA and LEON come forward.]

V:2:25 LEON.
Doubt as you like,
Credulity will come, and in good season.

V:2:26 SIDO.
She is not here that would confirm your tale.

V:2:27 LEON.
'Tis history, my Sidonia. Strange events
Have happened, strange
