What hee rewrate agayne,[1161] I wote not I, From _Carras_ I to _Lunae’s_ temple went: And for because it neare the campe did lye, To sacrifice with fewe was mine intent: For why to towne from thence retourne I ment, And so from thence to th’campe[1162] likewise agayne I might [mee thought] retyre, without a greater trayne. 49. Amongst the which, one _Martiall_ of my garde, Whose brother (not conuinste, accusde) I slewe, Thus wise my captiue corps did watch to warde, (For when therefore conuenient time hee knewe, While I aparte me gate for nature’s due, And bade the rest aside a space departe) Hee came and stabde mee stifly through the harte. 50. _Seuerus_ seruaunts I corrupted ofte, Them feeid to make their Lorde my syre away; With _Getae’s_ men the like attempts I wrought, To bane their lord, and brother mine to slay: How I the _Alexandrians_ did betray, And _Parthians_ eke, before to you I tolde, Deseruing death for those a thousand folde. 51. But sith those faithfull seruaunts I did kill, Which would not sley their noble lordes for golde, I worthy was to haue a gard so ill, As shoulde to perce my hatefull harte bee bolde: The justice great of _Ioua_ here beholde, Uniustly who so seekes to slay the [iust and] good, The sword at length shall take his false and traytours bloud.[1163] END OF THE FIRST PART.
