_Mel_. I am but poor in words, but credit me young man, Thy Mother could no more but weep, for joy to see thee After long absence; all the wounds I have, Fetch not so much away, nor all the cryes Of Widowed Mothers: but this is peace; And what was War? _Amin_. Pardon thou holy God Of Marriage bed, and frown not, I am forc't In answer of such noble tears as those, To weep upon my Wedding day. _Mel_. I fear thou art grown too sick; for I hear A Lady mourns for thee, men say to death, Forsaken of thee, on what terms I know not. _Amin_. She had my promise, but the King forbad it, And made me make this worthy change, thy Sister Accompanied with graces above her, With whom I long to lose my lusty youth, And grow old in her arms. _Mel_. Be prosperous. [_Enter Messenger_. _Messen_. My Lord, the Maskers rage for you. _Lys_. We are gone. _Cleon, Strata, Diphilus_. _Amin_. Wee'l all attend you, we shall trouble you With our solemnities. _Mel_. Not so _Amintor_. But if you laugh at my rude carriage In peace, I'le do as much for you in War When you come thither: yet I have a Mistress To bring to your delights; rough though I am, I have a Mistress, and she has a heart, She saies, but trust me, it is stone, no better, There is no place that I can challenge in't. But you stand still, and here my way lies. [_Exit_. _Enter Calianax with Diagoras_. _Cal_. _Diagoras_, look to the doors better for shame, you let in all the world, and anon the King will rail at me; why very well said, by _Jove_ the King will have the show i'th' Court. _Diag_. Why do you swear so my Lord? You know he'l have it here. _Cal_. By this light if he be wise he will not. _Diag_. And if he will not be wise, you are forsworn. _Cal_. One may wear his heart out with swearing, and get thanks on no side, I'le be gone, look to't who will. _Diag_. My Lord, I will never keep them out. Pray stay, your looks will terrifie them. _Cal_. My looks terrifie them, you Coxcombly Ass you! I'le be judg'd by all the company whether thou hast not a worse face than I-- _Diag_. I mean, because they know you and your Office.
