Opis

_Enter Dion, Cleremont, and Thrasiline. Cler. Here's not Lords nor Ladies. Dion. Credit me Gentlemen, I wonder at it. They receiv'd strict charge from the King to attend here: Besides it was boldly published, that no Officer should forbid any Gentlemen that desire to attend and hear. Cle. Can you guess the cause? Di. Sir, it is plain about the Spanish Prince, that's come to marry our Kingdoms Heir, and be our Soveraign. Thra. Many (that will seem to know much) say, she looks not on him like a Maid in Love. Di. O Sir, the multitude (that seldom know any thing but their own opinions) speak that they would have; but the Prince, before his own approach, receiv'd so many confident messages from the State, that I think she's resolv'd to be rul'd. Cle. Sir, it is thought, with her he shall enjoy both these Kingdoms of Cicilie and Calabria. Di. Sir, it is (without controversie) so meant. But 'twill be a troublesome labour for him to enjoy both these Kingdoms, with safetie, the right Heir to one of them living, and living so vertuously, especially the people admiring the bravery of his mind, and lamenting his injuries. Cle. Who, Philaster?
