le now beleeve
Nothing of all his forg'd predictions.
My kinde and honour'd father, well reviv'd!
I have beene frighted with your death and mine,
And told my mistresse hand should be my death, 90
If I obeyed this summons.

_Mont._ I beleev'd
Your love had bin much clearer then to give
Any such doubt a thought, for she is cleare,
And having freed her husbands jealousie
(Of which her much abus'd hand here is witnesse) 95
She prayes, for urgent cause, your instant presence.

_Buss._ Why, then, your Prince of Spirits may be call'd
The Prince of lyers.

_Mont._ Holy Writ so calls him.

_Buss._ What! writ in bloud!

_Mont._ I, 'tis the ink of lovers.

_Buss._ O, 'tis a sacred witnesse of her love. 100
So much elixer of her bloud as this,
Dropt in the lightest dame, would make her firme
As heat to fire; and, like to all the signes,
Commands the life confinde in all my veines.
O, how it multiplies my bloud with spirit, 105
And makes me apt t'encounter death and hell.
But come, kinde father; you fetch me to heaven,
And to that end your holy weed was given. _Exeunt._
