These habits then my Lord will bring you thither, methinks your Grace becomes them really well, now you are a Person most Sacrosanct, twice holy, made so by your Majesty and order. 'tis time that you were going, the guide is ready to attend you to the place from whence you must seem to come, I with a private guard will wait you at the Princess lodgings for fear of any sudden danger. My Lord, I shall ever owe my life to you, as much as if you had saved it, and that I lived wholly by your gift, but here can be no danger where she wishes safety. When this is past, then for the great work, this is but a flourish to recreate the Senses in respect of that, it now grows toward an end, and heavier like many things at first light in themselves, and hardly to be caught for every air, being condensed and thickened to a bottom, do press the shoulders and make the veins groan under. Aratus? How now friends, methinks your looks are lively, how succeeds your undertakings? Too well to fail a minute of the time. All the places we named, are sided with us, and those parts which Pallantus heretofore commanded are ready to sacrifice their new Lords to any that can but say he knew their old. Why this is the life of every action, and makes it pleasant, when fortune is no enemy to industry, nor turns her wisdom into folly, makes not that a ruin which was a well ordered safety, when they both consent the burden's light, and labour but a serious sport. The young Prince is come, but we have given command to keep him close, lest his face discover what his fortune is, a Gentleman at the first sight started at him, and called him the Prince's Picture. You must look to that. The time now grows precious, we must weigh each dram, and till this be over, count all lost we spend in sleep or eating: come, every man to his charge. I doubt not on the day, to have a Prince help us to set the Crown upon our King. But these are things for the following age, we are hedged in beyond all fear, if loyalty may prove destructive, there is yet some danger. Because you see a calm enwrap all round About ye, you conceive 'twill be As lasting as 'tis pleasing. Tempests, sir, May contradict you even whiles you think so, Evils are silent now, not done away, They couch and lie in wait. Sedition walks With claws bowed in, and a close mouth, which only She keeps for opportunity of prey. Your ruin yet appears not and you think Because it lurks, you are safe, He that will be truly secure must find A peace on the destruction of all things That can impeach it: enemies reconciled Are like wild beasts brought up to hand, they have More advantage given them to be cruel.

My Lord, I shall ever owe my life to you, as much as if you had sau'd it, and that I liv'd wholly by your guift, but here can be no danger where she wishes safety. When this is past, then for the great worke, this is but a florish to recreate the Sences inrespect of that, it now growes toward an end, and heavier like many things at first light in themselves, and hardly to bee caught for every aire, being condensed and thickned to a bottome, doe presse the shoulders and make the vaines groane under. Aratus? How now friends, mee thinkes your lookes are lively, how succeeds your undertakings? Too well to faile a minute of the time. All the places we named, are sided with us, and those parts which Pallantus heretofore commanded are ready to sacrifice their new Lords to any that can but say hee knew their old. Why this is the life of every action, and makes it pleasant, when fortune is no enemie to industry, nor turnes her wisdome into folly, makes not that a ruine which was a well ordered safety, when they both consent the burthen's light, and labour but a serious sport. The young Prince is come, but wee have given command to keepe him close, least his face discover what his fortune is, a Gentleman at the first sight started at him, and calld him the Prince's Picture. You must looke to that. The time now growes pretious, we must waigh each dram, and till this be over, count all lost wee spend in sleepe or eating: come, every man to his charge. I doubt not on the day, to have a Prince helpe us to set the Crowne upon our King. But these are things for the following age, wee are hedg'd in beyond all feare, if loyalty may prove distructive, there is yet some danger. Because you see a calme enwrap all round About yee, you conceive 'twillbe As lasting as tis pleasing. Tempests, sir, May contradict you even whiles you think so, Evills are silent now, not done away, They couch and lyein waite. Sedition walkes With clawes bowd in, and a close mouth, which onely Shee keeps for opportunity of prey. Your ruine yet appeares not and you thinke Because it lurkes, you are safe, Hee that will be truly secure must found A peace on the distruction of all things That can impeach it: enemies reconcild Are like wilde beasts brought up to hand, they have More advantage given them to be cruell.
