[_Ex_. Abd. _one way_, Leon. Osm. _and the rest another_. SCENE III. _A Prison_. _Discovers_ Philip _chain’d to a Post, and over against him the_ Cardinal _and_ Alonzo _in Chains_. _Phil_. Oh, all ye cruel Powers! is’t not enough I am depriv’d of Empire, and of Honour? Have my bright Name stol’n from me, with my Crown! Divested of all Power! all Liberty! And here am chain’d like the sad Andromede, To wait Destruction from the dreadful Monster! Is not all this enough, without being damn’d, To have thee, Cardinal, in my full view? If I cou’d reach my Eyes, I’d be reveng’d On the officious and accursed Lights, For guiding so much torment to my Soul. _Card_. My much wrong’d Prince! you need not wish to kill By ways more certain, than by upbraiding me With my too credulous, shameful past misdeeds. _Phil_. If that wou’d kill, I’d weary out my Tongue With an eternal repetition of thy Treachery;-- Nay, and it shou’d forget all other Language, But Traitor! Cardinal! which I wou’d repeat, Till I had made my self as raging mad, As the wild Sea, when all the Winds are up; And in that Storm, I might forget my Grief. _Card_.

I’ll be as gentle as a Love-sick Youth, When his dear Conqu’ress sighs a Hope into him, If thou wilt kill me!--Pity me and kill me. _Zar_. I hope to see your own Hand do that Office. _Phil_. Oh, thou wert brave indeed, If thou wou’dst lend me but the use of one. _Zar_. You’ll want a Dagger then. _Phil_. By Heaven, no, I’d run it down my Throat, Or strike my pointed Fingers through my Breast. _Zar_. Ha, ha, ha, what pity ‘tis you want a Hand. _Enter_ Osmin. _Phil. Osmin_, sure thou wilt be so kind to kill me! Thou hadst a Soul was humane. _Osm_. Indeed I will not, Sir, you are my King. [_Unbinds him_. _Phil_. What mean’st thou? _Osm_. To set you free, my Prince. _Phil_. Thou art some Angel sure, in that dark Cloud. _Zar_. What mean’st thou, Traitor? _Osm_. Wait till your Eyes inform you. _Card_. Good Gods! what mean’st thou? _Osm_. Sir, arm your Hand with this. [_Gives_ Phil. _a Sword, goes to undo_ Alonzo. _Zar_. Thou art half-damn’d for this! I’ll to my Prince--
