M. M. (Matthew Mainwaring), 1561-1652.; Minshull, Richard.	1650 (1650)	Wing M295C; ESTC R19255	130,674	194

the Earth that then you will inherit him in all such 〈◊〉 and Goode as Fortune in your fortune and ability shall then 〈◊〉 behind you So shall you yeeld desert his due knowne 〈◊〉 and eterniz● your 〈◊〉 fame The hard give you 〈…〉 with your blessing comfort your gray 〈◊〉 and redouble with treble happinesse your aged dayes Your haplesse Son onely happy in being your Son but most unhappie in being himselfe Paris Sir Jaques having read the sad contents of his Sonnes resolved last fare-will fainted under the burden of his so unsupportable griefe but revived and comforted by La-nova that was himselfe to be comforted he● betooke himselfe unto his carefull bed where though his attached tongue could pay no tribute to his dumbe sorrow yet did his silent woes shew his speaking griefe Such was his woe that it was a woe to see his woe In so much that La-nova swol●● with his owne griefe was ready to burst to see his sorrow And therefore having neither temperance to cover the one nor a heart to looke upon the other bee returned to his erected Chappell where he pierc'● the very Heavens for the presemtation of his Friend and powred forth his Prayers for his returne This done he held himselfe undone in so mestinable a losse And after a long and sod meditating with himselfe hee fearefull 〈◊〉 went to 〈…〉 all their sorrowes might be compleat at once Her he found all persive and heavie as one presaging her further mishap and no sooner she saw him but that drawing forth the true portractiue of sorrow out of his carefull countenance she hastily yet fearefully demanded what newes The Heavens Madam sayd La-nova grant you patience and more comfortable newes Vienna agast gastly asked if Pari● then were dead Not dead he sayd and yet departed Departed 〈◊〉 said Vienna how whether or to whom from life to death or from me to a causlesse change If dead why live I then If alive why then dead to me Say say La-nova where lives or lyes my Paris Paris said La-nova lives in his sorrow and dyes in your griefe But where a●●usse I know not for mad in your affliction hee is gone in his fury to dye else-where for his fancy Vienna whose eyes over-flowed with teares and whose heart was wounded with his words stood like a second Ni●●● and then falling suddainly into a deadly trance she no sooner came to herselfe againe but that againe she lost her selfe But after her full recovery her remembrance then recording how all her nourished wees had begot many crosses that miserably fell upon her like halle-stones that strives to overtake one another she could not reframe but thus bewayled herselfe What fault of mine cruell and unkind hath caused thus thy causlesse slight Is this ah this and woe is me in this the hoped harvest of devoted Love Deserves my endured miseries this ingratefull guerdon O Paris Paris thy love comforted me in my cares but thy losse hath confounded me in my Love O that J had never sea●● thee whom yet J wish to see or seeing there had never affected thee whom ever I most affect My hap is hard that can neither have nor hope and the fault J find in my selfe followes wee still while death doth follow me All Lavirva what now avayles thy doubtfull diligence to dry Friend under the realous shew of thy 〈◊〉 sanctitude To what end now intends my pining imprisonment the due chastisement of my neglected duty Am J now become the onely Daughter of sorrow and the cashiered Childe of disgrace O happie Pertia thy dead sad woes are all buried in my long liv'd griefes and Heccubaes teares are all drowned in the 〈◊〉 of my sorrow Why then doe I live longer in dolour since my preordinate life is predestinate to a dolent death I will cruciare my esfamished Bodie and satiare the angry Fates with my mortall and tragicall end The end of my woe shall be the woefull and of my life and the life of my laments shall be the wounds of my death And therefore leave me La-nova leave me that at last I may honour the Carthagenian Queene by breathing out my lost These last wordes so sore appased La-nova that jealous of her weaknesse her enfeebled estate being unable to support her oppressing and confounding sorrowes hee much feared least overcome with griefe and passion shee should yeeld to mischiefe her misery To prevent which he buried for the time all his owne griefe in the heedfull care of he safety and closely wiping his bedewed eyes he began Pastor-like to Preach patience Faith Hope and Comfort to her sad dismayed Soule Let not said he I beseech your Excellence any sinister crosse chance or mundaine affaires overthrow or oppresse the lively force of your requisite Faith Nor lot any pusalimity weaken the wonted courage of your prudent minde but build your Faith and hope on him who as Roy royall rules and over-rules all chances and accidents that befalls humane Creatures Then embrace not a mischiefe to prevent an ill since God sends good for evill as he made light out of darkenosse Joseph was in prison before he could be Governor of Egypt and the Jsraelites were in bond age before they could come into Can●an You see your soare but not your salve Though with Job you lye now in ashes yet when with Job you be tryed there shall be no more sorrowes left to afflict you then there were sores left to torment him For as the power of God is above our capacities So doth his succors and comforts come quite

rewarded Grosses your Grace knowes are but touch-stones to try our pati●●ce and patience is both a vertue and the true Physitian of distresse And in managing of affection and affliction is the 〈◊〉 propse of discretion To overcome another is the guist of For●●●● but to vanquish our owne wills is the true proof● of wile courage and a glory proper to our selves I confesse said Vienna that Patience is a Vertue but a poore one and that Hope is a heavenly thing but long hopes consume patience and water a faire oft doth ●●ver quench fire at hand And when two 〈…〉 together Death may fall before Summer Yet 〈◊〉 sayd L●nova heales griefes by killing of tat●● ●ay Time shee replyed is rather a devourer of our exp●●●●tions then a Chyrurgion to heale our loares For all men takes pleasure to common

Sultan was slain instantly did rise and confusedly did run to the Pallace bearing all down before them in such a distract sort that the Turks Guard was glad to shut the Gares against them and to entreat the Sultan to shew himself out of the Casement unto them which so well appeased them that they quietly returned to their houses Then was inquisition made after the knowledge of the Sarazene apparell which was so base that all men wondered not only that he was there but how he came there His mangled body kept him unknown and his mean habit made him no appertenant to the Court. When no notice could be had neither of the one nor of the other the appeased Sultan sent for the Eunuches that attended his Emperess and caused two Mutes to strangle them in his sight After he caused all the dead bodies with the two beds and all their Apparell to be carryed forth of the City and to be burned all together and further gave in charge that the two Chambers should be converted into houses of base use and that no one under pain of death should after speak thereof Now Sirap who during these tempestuous storms lay at anchor in his own private Harbour as one that knew well that great men ever envying the glory and fortune of strangers would in these tumults be ready to stab at the bosome of merit and that Mischief the cursed Captain always of the unruly Commons might in a disturbed uproar indanger his safety hearing now that the sight of the Sultan had allayed the windy Allarum of his rumoured death and that the present murther of the Sultanesse with her Maid and unknown Paramor was the occasion of such disorder rising He grew jealous of the Cause suspicious of the Firour and timorous of his wend fare For though gliarded with innocency yet was he fearfull lest Mentiga had cast some scandalizing aspersion upon his unspoiled honesty In this fearfull doubt he kept himself within himself untill report had further manifested not only the manner of all their Deaths but the ignorance of the Cause This dispierced all Clouds of care and made him a perfect Judge both of the error and the event Then lifting up his erected heart he said O Vienna thy love I see now hath given me a second life and my constant loyalty hath kept me from the grave Instice hath preserved the guiltless and righteousness hath found mercy in judgement Now praised be my God my strong defence For he hath covered me under the wings of his protection and kept me from the death of the wicked He hath cast down lightning and burnt up the Daughters of Babell that I might be safe in their suddain destruction The storm is past and these cloudy occurrants threaten another tempest The Sea cannot be so calm in Summer but that it may swell again with the rage of wrathfull winter There is more wisedom in prerenting then in redressing a mischief Security lives not in tyranny For though the Tyger hide his clawes yet in the end will he shew his Rapine Revenge hath now smoothed the Sultans angry brow and Time hath given some peace to his displeasure The tide serves me and my prophane aboad with the heathen is displeasing to the heavens My captived Lord calls me away and Vienna says I am too slow my mark is set and I levell streight I will comend my aim and therewithall casting off all further deliberation he went to the Court to take his leave of Solimon who seeing him stand upon his departure after some private conference and protestations that he would crown his return with highest honours advancement he vouchsafed graciously to embrace him and so bad him farewell The next morning Sirap having before caused all things to be in readinesse the winds summoning him to Sea he took shipping and sayling by the Islands scituate in part of the Mediteranean Sea he landed at Sidon a Port Town in Syria and there taking Horse he posted through the Country and part of the Desarts of Arabia and so came to Babylon Where we will leave him to look into France and see how Vienna brookes her continued thraldome which was not so grievous unto her as the tormenting suppose of Sir Paris losse Great was her sorrow in fear of him and many her bernoanings for not hearing from him Insomuch that La-nova seeing the increase of her growing cares thus sadly spake unto her Madam these ruthlesse Walls neither melt with your tears nor yet shake nor shrink with your sighes Comfort dwels not in restraint nor lives remedy in Lamentations Though your Father be absent yet hath he left a jealous Keeper You may ever weep and bewayl your estate and ly still in the bed of sorrow If you never seek after redresse you shall over find your self a Prisoner You know the scorer way I made to relieve you If so you please I will convey you through the same to some private place where Metamorphosed we will either hunt in quest after Sir Paris or you shall rest unknown in some Forraign Nation till either my travell shall gain knowledge of his aboad or that the death of the Dolphin shall leave you for your right to the tryell of your friends Then cast off these mortif●ing dumps and leave now your sorrow to the Governors as a pawn for your return and let us stand upon our fortunes hope lives in industry and my adventures shall ever wayt on your pleasure This kind offer did move her much but could not remove her at all Liberty she said was sweet to that life that might take the pleasures of this life But to a dejected heart whose banisht content could promise no wished delight there a close prison was better then a glorious Pallace To travail she said to my Paris would be more pleasing then painfull to Vienna but not knowing where he is I might perhaps extravagantly go further from him then I am that a●n already further off then I would b●● here for his love was I made a Prisoner and here wil I still rest a Prisoner for his love If he be living and loving here shall I soonest hear from him and if he be neither in Love nor in life here will I end both my Love and life Onely take thanks for thy loving care and kind respect and be still a true friend to Paris that Vienna may ever have comfort in La-nova Upon this conclusion he parted and Isabella strewed the rusl●●es over the private way that gave him entrance But no sooner was it done but that one of the Keepers Gentlemen that seemeel ever most serviceable unto her came in whom the devillish Dolphinis had before fashioned to her purpose for she wrought upon his wants as knowing well that poverty betrayeth vertue and that wealth bewitcheth wit Corruption having made him her creature she had instructed him how to traine Vienna to her destruction for nought but death could satisfie her disdainfull fear Her

any such adventure Poltron seeing it would not otherwise bee yeelded though unwilling thereunto and like Sinnes Sollicitour moved that Izabella would play the Pedlar and he would become a Tinker with his Budget on his back a leathern couloured Apron before him a Hammer under his Girdle and a Brazen ladle in one of his hands And thus with his face besmeared would he go a pretty way before them as none of their company and yet guide them in the way So gallant a Bonelace-seller so proud a Pedlet and so stout a Tinker all France will not pattern But thus it must be if you Madam will have your desire Nor may you scorn that means that promiseth assurance of Liberty and hope of better hap The Gods to have their wils disdained not the shape of beasts and we must with the cunning Fowler cloath our selves in Feathers if we will deceive wily birds It is a Soare no sinne to betray Tyranny but a shift no shame to get Liberty These guilefull enticing words of his and the betraying instructions of the deepe deceitefull Dolphinis were without any semblance of other reach so smoothly and passionately delivered by this damnable and perfideous Villain that all his wily words were held as Oracles and the further he seemed to be from her the neerer still he touched her to the quick In so much that Vienna being blindly led in her over-affectionate desire beyond the limit of all due consideration yeelded to referre her self to his trust and to fashion themselves according to his direction Alasse Vienna where disloyall Treason threatens thy shipwrack and where remorcelesse murder is thy plot there assured danger must be thy Harbour and reproachfull destruction thy host Implacable malice pursues thee invisible fraud bettayes thee and too late repentance will I fear learn thee that they are most miserable that make themselves wretched examples to others But how should Love the child of Folly looke into a plot of pollicy when unseduced wit cannot see it nor untainted wisedome find it The appearance of Truth and the shew of Pitty and simplicity hath in all deceitfull Practises subverted Cities deposed Kings defrauded Subjects of their rights and taken away the guiltlesse lives of Innocents How then poor Princess couldst thou a voyd thy running upon the Sands though armies of objections did rise against thy doubtfull hazard yet cannot thy good though free intention make thee faulty though thy over-credulity in entertaining of conjectures made thee erre Thy chast thoughts shine still I see in thy vertue and thy vertue by divine providence must shield thee both from abusive shame and from unexpected slaughter But now Poltron had provided at Vienxa's cost all materiala and the Ladies disrobeing themselves hid their attyres and to cast a mist before the eyes of ignorance they clothed them to the purpose and at supper time the night being dark upon Poltrons watch-word who then stood centinell they came forth pulling the door after them For lock it Vienna would not because it should appear which way they came forth least upon further rearch they might find out La-nova's private way and so bring him into trouble who at the time was in Flanders enquiring after his lost friend The next morning their escape was discovered the City was searched Poltron mist and every way was full of inquisitors But that nights travell and their unsuspected disguise being the usuall habit of such wandring professours brought them safe unto a great wood that stood at the foot of a high hill in Langnedoc where he perswaded them the Hermit had his Cell At the entrance whereof Vienna stumbled the dull earth forbidding thereby her further passage and Izabella's eyes were suddenly for the time strucken blind as though the feet of the one were unwilling to bring their Mislris into perill and the eyes of the other were ashamed to see such intended villany But no presage can forestall desire love looks altogether after their own fancies consters all things acccording to her affections This helhound the Divels Agent seeing Vienna ready to fall stept to her and taking her by the arm in shew to support her led her into the thickest of the wood where suddenly as one transformed this seeming dove shewed himself a villture and like cruelty her self with imbossed mouth and staring eyes he drew his short sword that hung by his lustfull side and gashly swore that if either of them made any noise he would forthwith kill them both whereat the weak and wearied Ladies were so amazed that all their sences were sencelesse their tongues were bound to the peace by iustice fear they could not speak nor durst not cry Now Lust the execrable parent of murther seeing her abashed beauty shine like the sun through a Cloud had so fiered his fancy that where before it was but kindled by her looks now having her within his power it did violently burn by the touch Death must now forbear and attend his pleasure for his pleasure and nothing could satisfie this covetuous Fox but after the stealing of the grapes he meant to forrage the vine To effect which he turned Isabella's face to a tree and bound her arms round about the same and notwithstanding flatteringly promised them both their lives if Vienna would but consent to his wanton wil If not he then prodigally swore that in dispight of all he would gather the fruit now it was ripe and after leave their slain bodyes a prey unto the beasts of the field Vienna having recovered some spirit and seeing the present danger with elevated eys erected hands and bowed knees she besought him not to sport in her misery nor to spot his soul with the repenting pleasure of uncleannes Remember sayd she that I am a Princesse save but my honour as thou art my mothers son and I will freely forgive thee my death as I am my fathers daughter I seek not life but the honour of my life for my long liv'd grief makes me hate life and despise death but in the losse of my chiefest cherished care my curses shall poyson thy salvation and the wildfire of thy lust shall burn up all thy worldly welfare and make thee a speedy prey to speedy destruction O let then my Chast teares quench the flame of thy sinfull Concupiscence biast not the beauty of the Lilly in the bud deprive not the Rose of the fairness of the bloom nor brand not thy self with the cursed name of a hatefull villain The fiercest Lyon hath no cruelty to hurt a Royall Virgine Man was made to help not to hurt a silly maid and the Lord of Hosts hath countlesse Plagues to punish such ofenders Thy carnall regard is but momentary but thy shamse will be everlasting and thy punishment eternall For repentance follows fruition and the reward of sin is death Thus did she pray plead and entreat and thus would she have disswaded him from doing evill that never yet knew good but his unruly passion
