Why by lot, or God wots, or as it came to pass, And so it was, the first verse of the godly Ballet Will tell you all: for look you where my abridgement comes: Welcome masters, welcome all, What my old friend, thy face is vallanced Since I saw thee last, comest thou to beard me in Denmark? My young lady and mistress, burlady but your Ladyship is grown by the altitude of a chopine higher than you were: Pray God sir your voice, like a piece of uncurrent Gold, be not cracked in the ring: come on masters, we'll even to't, like French Falconers, Fly at any thing we see, come, a taste of your Quality, a speech, a passionate speech. What speech my good lord? I heard thee speak a speech once, But it was never acted: or if it were, Never above twice, for as I remember, It pleased not the vulgar, it was caviar To the million: but to me And others, that received it in the like kind, Cried in the top of their judgements, an excellent play, Set down with as great modesty as cunning: One said there was no salads in the lines to make them savoury, But called it an honest method, as wholesome as sweet. Come, a speech in it I chief remember Was Aeneas tale to Dido, And then especially where he talks of Prince's slaughter, If it live in thy memory begin at this line, Let me see. The rugged Pyrrus, like th'arganian beast: No 'tis not so, it begins with Pirrus: O I have it. The rugged Pirrus, he whose sable arms, Black as his purpose did the night resemble, When he lay couched in the ominous horse, Hath now his black and grim complexion smeered With Heraldry more dismal, head to foot, Now is he total guise, horridely tricked With blood offathers, mothers, daughters, sons, Backed and imparched in calagulate gore, Rifted in earth and fire, old grandsire Priam seeks: So go on. Afore God, my Lord, well spoke, and with good accent. A none he finds him striking too short at Greeks, His a 〈…〉 d rebellious to his Arm, Lies where it falls, unable to resist. Pyrrus at Priam drives, but all in rage, striketh wide, but with the whiff and wind Of his fell sword, th'unnerved father falls. Enough my friend, 'tis too long. It shall to the Barbers with your beard: A pox, he's for a jig, or a tale of bawdry, Or else he sleeps, come on to Hecuba, come. But who O who had seen the mobled Queen? Mobled Queen is good, faith very good. All in the alarm and fear of death rose up, And o'er her weak and all ore-teeming loins, a blanket And a kercher on that head, where late the diadem stood, Who this had seen with tongue envenomed speech, Would treason have pronounced, For if the gods themselves had seen her then, When she saw Pirrus with malicious strokes, Mincing her husbands limbs, It would have made milk the burning eyes of heaven, And passion in the gods.

Why by lot, or God wot, or as it came to passe, And so it was, the first verse of the godly Ballet Wil tel you all: for look you where my abridgement comes: Welcome maisters, welcome all, What my olde friend, thy face is vallanced Since I saw thee last, com'st thou to beard me in Denmarke? My yong lady and mistris, burlady but your Ladiship is growne by the altitude of a chopine higher than you were: Pray God sir your voyce, like a peece of vncurrant Golde, be not crack't in the ring: come on maisters, Weele euen too't, like French Falconers, Flie at any thing we see, come, a taste of your Quallitie, a speech, a passionate speech. What speech my good lord? I heard thee speake a speech once, But it was neuer acted: or if it were, Neuer aboue twice, for as I remember, It pleased not the vulgar, it was cauiary To the million: but to me And others, that receiued it in the like kinde, Cried in the toppe of their iudgements, an excellent play, Set downe with as great modestie as cunning: One said there was no sallets in the lines to make thē sauory, But called it an honest methode, as wholesome as sweete. Come, a speech in it I chiefly remember Was Aeneas tale to Dido, And then especially where he talkes of Princes slaughter, If it liue in thy memory beginne at this line, Let me see. The rugged Pyrrus, like th'arganian beast: No t'is not so, it begins with Pirrus: O I haue it. The rugged Pirrus, he whose sable armes, Blacke as his purpose did the night resemble, When he lay couched in the ominous horse, Hath now his blacke and grimme complexion smeered With Heraldry more dismall, head to foote, Now is he totall guise, horridely tricked With blood offathers, mothers, daughters, sonnes, Back't and imparched in calagulate gore, Rifted in earth and fire, olde grandsire Pryam seekes: So goe on. Afore God, my Lord, well spoke, and with good accent. A none he finds him striking too short at Greeks, His ad rebellious to his Arme, Lies where it falles, vnable to resist. Pyrrus at Pryam driues, but all in rage, Strikes wide, but with the whiffe and winde Of his fell sword, th'unnerued father falles. Enough my friend, t'is too long. It shall to the Barbers with your beard: A pox, hee's for a Iigge, or a tale of bawdry, Or else he sleepes, come on to Hecuba, come. But who O who had seene the mobled Queene? Mobled Queene is good, faith very good. All in the alarum and feare of death rose vp, And o're her weake and all ore-teeming loynes, a blancket And a kercher on that head, where late the diademe stoode, Who this had seene with tongue inuenom'd speech, Would treason haue pronounced, For if the gods themselues had seene her then, When she saw Pirrus with malitious strokes, Mincing her husbandes limbs, It would haue made milch the burning eyes of heauen, And passion in the gods.
