That is the plague of heaven, earth, and hell! Thou bidd’st, Alecto: I pursue my charge. Let thy Cerastæ whistle in mine ears, And let the bells of Pluto ring revenge! One other speech penned by the same gentleman, and pronounced instead of Gorlois his last speech penned by Thomas Hughes, and set down in the second Scene of the fifth and last Act. Death hath his conquest, hell hath had his wish, Gorlois his vow, Alecto her desire; Sin hath his pay, and blood is quit with blood: Revenge in triumph bears the struggling hearts! Now, Gorlois, pierce the craggy rocks of hell, Through chinks whereof infernal sprites do glance, Return this answer to the furies’ court: That Cornwall trembles with the thought of war, And Tamar’s flood with drooping pace doth flow, For fear of touching Camel’s bloody stream. Britain, remember; write it on thy walls, Which neither time nor tyranny may raze, That rebels, traitors, and conspirators, The seminary of lewd Catiline, The bastard covey of Italian birds, Shall feel the flames of ever-flaming fire, Which are not quenched with a sea of tears. And since in thee some glorious star must shine, When many years and ages are expir’d, Whose beams shall clear the mist of miscontent, And make the damp of Pluto’s pit retire, Gorlois will never fray the Britons more: For Britain then becomes an angel’s land. Both devils and sprites must yield to angels’ power, Unto the goddess of the angels’ land. Vaunt, Britain, vaunt of her renowmed reign, Whose face deters the hags of hell from thee, Whose virtues hold the plagues of heaven from thee; Whose presence makes the earth fruitful to thee; And with foresight of her thrice-happy days, Britain, I leave thee to an endless praise. Besides these speeches there was also penned a Chorus for the first act, and another for the second act, by Master Francis Flower, which were pronounced accordingly. The dumb shows were partly devised by Master Christopher Yelverton, Master Francis Bacon, Master John Lancaster and others, partly by the said Master Flower, who with Master Penruddock and the said Master Lancaster, directed these proceedings at Court.
