your self torment Peleus Chiron How shall I find content Chiron Pursue your hopes and onward go Peleus Is' t possible I should do so When on my heart a beauty lies That is descended from the Skies A beauty that 's all moving and immense That hath o're me such an omnipotence Moreover I two Rivals have No less then Gods who me outbrave For Neptune with his Trident and great Jove Are my competitors for Thetis love Chiron Peleus Why do you thus your self torment Peleus Chiron Where is it I should find content Chiron Then follow your fair hopes and onward go Peleus How is it possible I should do so Chiron Listen to me gray hairs do but in vain Attempt young beauties they will them disdain Though they be Gods Neptune is rich in yeers As well as Treasure Thetis will him jeer For Jove besides his age his rapes and wiles How he so many Ladies did beguile Will make her shun him but if you desire To compass your designes and quench your fire Behold those Magies that with charmed flight Will guide you safely to Prometheus sight Who being bold and wise is th' only man Who in this Enterprise you pleasure can He is no friend to Jove who him torments With such eternal pangs therefore he will To help you exercise his utmost skil Wherefore take my advice and hence away To India through the air cut out your way Delay is alwayes dangerous to Lovers He ne're obtain'd his ends who hums and hovers Peleus This Aiery journey I will undertake But though herein Fortune my friend I make Yet are my hopes but smal I have a hint That Thetis's cruel and her heart is flint Chiron When modest beauties to excuses fall You must not presently it rigor call The heart oft-times desires what lips deny For a huge distance doth betwixt them lye Peleus Could it unto my Love-sick thoughts appear That what you say hereto is true and clear Those pangs I suffer in my brest Would turn to case delight and rest But fall what will my fate portends I still will glory in my ends Which an unmeasurable joy distils And my so high-swoln heart with comfort fils Chiron Peleus Let a true Lover never lose His hope or courage when he wooes The more his suff'rance is the more Sweetness is kept for him in store In Cupids gentle kingdom nothing is Impossible but one may gain his wish Chiron Go on then happily for who doth know But that your constancy may tell you so Peleus On on then to my Magies I will go The Second Scene Thetis Neptune a Quire of Tritons and Meremaids with a Quire of Corral-Fishers The Quire of Tritons and Meremaids At such a splendid glorious show What heart but would turn fire and tow A Pomp so rare a sight so fair Is able to perfume the air Nor Morn nor Sun did ever view So bright and ravishing a hue At such a splendid glorious show What heart but would turn fire and tow Neptune There is no fence I find Love will invade my mind In these moist fields my Rivers run in vain To quench my fire or tepifie my pain Though I in midst of waters lye Yet do I melt dissolve and fry But Thetis you at last will find it true To be more fool unto your self then you Are cruel unto me Will you refuse The richest of the Gods Him who doth use To give those gems that beauties do adorn Thence where the Queen of Love her self was born Thetis Aurora commonly doth rise Cheerful and smiling to our eyes But suddenly we oftentimes do see She fals a weeping upon flower and tree If you desire the cause I should unfold It is because her Consort is so old Neptune Thetis Be not deceiv'd though I be gray My waters still are green and so they may Be wholsomer then Springs which by and by ' Pon the least drowth grow shallower and dry Youth is unstable heady rash but age Is constant cautious provident and sage Thetis I do confess that you discourse and reason Like a quaint Amorist although the season Of Love in you be past It was for Love The Heavens made Youth for which the Gods above Have journeyed down to earth no other age Is fit a Female beauty to engage Neptune Perfidious thing I plainly now do find Thou art unto another more inclin'd Come winds and tempests and with my lament Your blasts unite Come come incontinent Let hispid blust'ring Boreas from the North Bring all the Haracanes and Whirlwinds forth Blow off and banish from my Kingdom quite This impious Girle so full of hate and spite Revenge the quarrel of your King And with your vengeance Justice bring Shall she in my Dominions dwel Who hath inflam'd my heart with fire from hel Chorus Ingrateful rash and foolish Nymph canst thou Slight thus the greatest of the gods below The grief will be thine own When thou art wiser growne Neglected Amorists may learn from hence Against blind Cupids arrowes a true fence Disdain of beauty a revenge may be Though not of love th' expected remedy The third Scene Thetis Juno Jupiter A Quire of the furies of Jealousie Thetis Now that the fury of the wind Hath left so sweet a calm behind Now that the storm is gone I pray let me alone To vent unto my self my moan Oh me I find that ambushes are laid To take me and entrap poor silly maid What will become of thee my heart Th' art like to suffer many a smart Oh me Oh me Poor heart what will become of thee Thy chastity Love studies to surprize He 's sly and cunning though not alwayes wise He Armour hath of every sort For to assault a female Fort He prayes complains and pines He menaceth and whines Now if another God should joyn With him who can me then essoyn Oh me Oh me Poor heart what will become of thee Jupiter What can blest heaven me avail If still of my desire I fail Celestial joies if they to sorrow turne Far worse then all Tartarean tortures burn O Thetis thou alone Hast made me quit my Throne Thou giv'st him law Who Gods doth aw● It is my destiny and luck By thee for to be deadly struck And that which is the greatest wonder Thy beauti 's stronger then my thunder But come O come my Fair increase my blisse And let 's cohabit both in Pardise Thetis O no Not so Jupiter Come and be partner of my Throne Which Hymen offers thee alone That Empire Love hath thee design'd Come come my Fair be not unkind Thetis O no Not so The heavens forbid I should be said Poor innocent and silly maid For to be such a Rebel as to wrong Her bed who train'd me all along From my first cradle I had rather dy A thousand deaths and scorch in Tartary Jupiter If you will use such slight Apologies To him who can command both lair and Skies To cleer your error and my pain asswage I
