Rub my head first then comb it, Fill me some wine Bernardo, Good my Lord cool yourself a little, Give me wine and let it be thy labour good Barnardo To call for music. Brother in this cup I commend the loves, Of all true Faventines our trusty friends, Hoping ere long to live again with them. I thank you brother, if our father Pope. Perform his promise we shall soon return. This wine was good yet tasteth of the cask, It hath a musty relish. Let's here this music, Holla within there. My Lord. I think it good after this little rubbing to repose my body I am some what heavy. I know the cause, And what Bernardo. Marry with much motion of your bodies my Lords, You must not be so vehement in play. I knew a noble French man at Anchona, Twenty years since at tennis took his death. With over heating of himself in play. More music there. My Lords are both asleep music depart. And leave them to their ease; alas sweet boys, Is it not pity that these noble branches, So sweetly knit in one, should never wake? I that am hard of heart sigh for their sake, My Lord. What news man? Both fast asleep. And both upon one bed? 'tis done. And chamber voided? All is performed my Lord. My blessing rest upon thee my Benardo. Depart now with those letters I delivered, To be conveyed to Florence leave me here. Slp both secure vpon your fatall bed, Now that the God of silence Morpheus, Hath with his signet of black horn sealed up, Your languid eye lids loaden with pale death, Sleep until you draw your latest breath, Poor harmless boys' strangers to sin and evil, Oh were my soul as innocent as yours! This office is of highest consequence, In friendship for I consider it, I sent you from a million of sorrows, Into the flowery fields of Paradise. Their to go habit in the groves of myrtle, To feed on Manna and to drink pure Nectar, A cup of everlasting happiness. Where such sweet music unconceivable, Shall entertain your senses in sweet comfort, As the delight thereof shall never die Astor what Astor speak awake Phillippo, Both fast asleep. Now Roderick betake thee to thy task, What? peace Astor begins to talk I will attend. Fair gracious Angel of eternal light, Which reachest out that hand of happiness. Hailing my spirit to that triumphant throne, Of endless comfort I adore thy grace. Oh golden light of never setting Sun, Hark brother Astor hark my soul is rapt, Into the joys of heaven with harmony.
