O, I hug thee sort, the valianst spirit ere trod the Spanish court, Here let the rising of our hot blood set. My liege two nobler spirits never met. Until we meet in purple, when our swords, Agreed, right valiant prince: Then Portugal this is thy resolute answer. So return: it's so, we have bethought us what Tribute is, how poor that Monarch shoes, Who for his throne a yearly pension owes: And what our predecessors lost to Spain, We have fresh spirits that can renew it again. Then I unclasp the purple leaves of war, Many a new wound must gasp, through an old scar: So Portugal I leave thee. ourself in person will see thee safe aboard: Come son, come Lords, In stead of tribute we must pay our swords. Remember Don andrea that we meet. Up hither sailing in a crimson fleet. Do you affect my Sister. Affect, above affection: for her breast, Is my lives treasure, O entire Is the condition of my hot desire. Then this must be your plot, You know Andrea's gone ambassador, On whom my Sister Bellimperia, Casts her affection: you are in stature like him, Speech alike, and had you but his vestment On your back, there's no one living but would Swear 'twere he: therefore, sly policy must Be your guide, I have a suit just Of Andrea's, colours, proportioned in all parts, Nay 'twas his own: this suit within my closet, Shall you wear, and so disguised woe, sue, and Then at last. What. Obtain my love. This falls out rare, In this disguise I may both wed, bed, and board her. You may you may? besides, within these few days he'll return. Till this be acted I in passion burn. All falls out for the purpose, all hits jump, The date of his embassage nigh expired, Gives strength unto our plot. True, true, all to the purpose. Moreover, I will buzz Andrea's Landing; which once but crept into the vulgar mouths, Is hurried here, and there, and sworn for troth, Think 'tis your love makes me create this guise, And willing hope to see your virtue rise. Lorenzo's bounty I do more enfold, Than the greatest mind of Indians' brightest gold. Come let us in, the next time you shall show, All Don andrea, not alcario. Come pull the table this way, so 'tis well: Come write horatio write, This speedy letter must away tonight. What fold paper that way, to a noble man, to Don andrea Spain's ambassador? Fie I am a ashamed to see it, Hast thou worn gowns in the University, Lost logic, sucked Philosophy, Eat Cues, drunk Cées, and cannot give A letter the right courtier's crest: O there's a kind of state, In every thing save in a Cuckold's pate, Fie, fie, horatio, what is your pen foul. No Father cleaner than Lorenzo's soul, That's dipped in ink made of an envious gall, else had my pen no cause to write at all.
