discover them to your Father then they shall take away your Eagle and let you go thus as you have preserved me and mine I will preserve you and yours CHAP. VIII How Philonzo and Cruentius obtained a counterfeit Eagle in the City of the Mesemptronia and returning home met their youger Brother Innocentine and robb'd him of his Eagle and what after happened PHilonzo and Cruentius having spent most of their money at last agréed with some in the City to get him an Eagle which they pretented thy could do which was not long effecting for they got a very great Fowle the nearest they could like a Eagle and gilded his feathers and brought it to them which they with much joy accepted giving a large summe for it and forthwith departed the City but as they travelled it was their fortune to meet their Brother Innocentine carrying an Eagle in a filver cage at the sight whereof their Eagle trembled and dyed but without the least salute to their Brother they run upon him and would have killed him but he according to his advise had hid the King and ●●●cture in a private place about him which they discovered not but took away Cage and Eagle with full ●●●ent to kill him but he with many passionate expressions diverted their intentions promising them to become their Servant and never betray them to his Father they hearing these promises saved his life and so he became their Servant and they journeyed together at last comming home and carrying their Eagle in tritriumph they were joyfully entertained the King embracing the two eldest and commanding the youngest to be immediately put to death for those lies which his Brothers had related of him but Innocentine heartilie begg'd of his Father that he might not be put to death and so did his Brothers séemingly but that he might be made inseriour to the worst servant in the house to which the King though unwilling agréed this was poore Innocentine that deserved a just reward cast out of his Fathers favour for ever but it happened that not long after the Quéen of Green Ivyland hearing where her Eagle was came with a great Traine to Arigon and presented her self to the King who was absolutelie cured by the vertue of the Eagle the Queen receiving that vountiful entertainment which her estate required asked the King how many sonnes be had to which the King replied two she desired she might be allowed so great a savour as to sée them immediatelie they appeared so she called Philonzo and asked him if he was the man that made so gallant an attempt for her Eagle he replied it was his poore endeavour that obtained it pray sayes she let me sée some assurance did you leave me nothing nor take nothing from me no replied Philonzo then quoth the Quéen you are not the man after him was presented Cruentius who the Quéen in the like manner gréeted but he replied as Philonzo did that he took nothing from her nor left any thing with her The Quéen concealing her anger told the King that these misteries past her imaginations destred the King ingenioustie to tell her if he had no more sonnes Kenowned Quéen I must confess I had another sonne which now I own not I think he may be living amongst the mean servants of my house but for a sonne I own him not to which the Quéen replied she must needs see him alas replied the King I thinke him not worthy of my presence much more of so renowned a Quéen as your self but to satisste your requests he shall be called in the mean time the King departed whilst Innocentine approached the Quéens presence to whom the Quéen discourst as followes Are you the youngest Son of this Koyal King or no he replied with a blushing countenance no what are you his servant he replied no Friend you speake very misteriously discover they self then know incomparable Lady that my Father being incens'd against me condemned me to dye but by the request of my Brothers I was preserved and became a servant to the worst of my Fathers servants contenting my self with these poor babilliments which indéed were they as rich as could be imagined were too mean to be presented before so worthy a person as Madam you are and for my self I could tremble into ashes at the sight of so excellent a creature as your vertuous self but I shall remove so unworthy an object from your fight and crave license to depart no replied the Quéen you shall not I have a few questions to aske you my rudeness most unparalled Lady shall be as obedient to reply as your Grace shall be ready to demand although I am unworthy to be the least of your creatures The Quéen hearing him express himself with so much humilitie and excellencie of spéech the King forgetting that his Son was there came suddenlie into the presence of the Quéen and beholding his out-cast started backe the Quéen perceiving it desired the King to yield her so great a favour as to stay to hear her aske his Son two or thrée questions the King not using to deny the request of such persons sate down whilst the Quéen thus exprest her self to Innocentine Was it you that took my Eagle from me pray answer me without ceremonie To which he vowing himself replied Madam I did and what token left you with me or took from me Madam a lock of your hair where is it replied the Quéen next my heart Madam replyed Innocentine and here it is but what 〈◊〉 leave me said the Quéen a lock of mine replied Innocentine great Prince said the Quéen to the King and here it is but pray let your patience expect my further discourse with him come hither said the Quéen to vashful Innocentine doe you know this picture and this King yes Madam and I hope your greatness knows these shewing her the picture and the King which he had took from her come saies the Quéen give me the picture and instead of the shadow take the substance I am resolved renowned King not to depart till I have made him possessor of all I have admire it not for it is nothing but truth The King like a man transported at first thought the Quéen to be possest of a frenzie but after more serious debate found all truth which shée had related and presently sent for his two Sons Philonzo and Cruentine and commands their heads to be struck off but Innocentine seconded with his incomparable Lady perswaded his Father to save their lives and banish them which the King though unwillingly consented to after which he imbraced his Son and told him in requital of his great abuses he would settle his Kingdom upon him The Quéen joyful to sée the King imbrace his Son desired the King that hereafter he would please to own her as his obedient Daughter So Innocentine and the Quéen were shortly after married and departed into their own Countrey of Ivyland FINIS
