_Tro._ O virtuous fight, When right with right wars who shall be most right![1663] True swains in love shall in the world to come[1664] 165 Approve their truths by Troilus: when their rhymes,[1665] Full of protest, of oath and big compare, Want similes, truth tired with iteration,[1666] 'As true as steel, as plantage to the moon,[1667] As sun to day, as turtle to her mate, 170 As iron to adamant, as earth to the centre,' Yet, after all comparisons of truth,[1668] As truth's authentic author to be cited,[1669] 'As true as Troilus' shall crown up the verse[1670] And sanctify the numbers. _Cres._ Prophet may you be! 175 If I be false, or swerve a hair from truth, When time is old and hath forgot itself,[1671] When waterdrops have worn the stones of Troy, And blind oblivion swallow'd cities up, And mighty states characterless are grated 180 To dusty nothing, yet let memory, From false to false, among false maids in love, Upbraid my falsehood! when they've said 'as false[1672] As air, as water, wind, or sandy earth,[1673] As fox to lamb, or wolf to heifer's calf,[1674] 185 Pard to the hind, or stepdame to her son,' 'Yea,' let them say, to stick the heart of falsehood, 'As false as Cressid.' _Pan._ Go to, a bargain made: seal it, seal it; I'll be the witness. Here I hold your hand; here my cousin's. If ever[1675] 190 you prove false one to another, since I have taken such pains[1676] to bring you together, let all pitiful goers-between be called to the world's end after my name; call them all Pandars; let all constant men be Troiluses, all false women Cressids,[1677] and all brokers-between Pandars! Say 'amen.' 195 _Tro._ Amen. _Cres._ Amen. _Pan._ Amen. Whereupon I will show you a chamber[1678] with a bed; which bed, because it shall not speak of your[1678] pretty encounters, press it to death: away![1679] 200 [_Exeunt Tro. and Cres._ And Cupid grant all tongue-tied maidens here Bed, chamber, Pandar to provide this gear! [_Exit._[1680] SCENE III. _The Grecian camp._ _Flourish. Enter_ AGAMEMNON, ULYSSES, DIOMEDES, NESTOR, AJAX, MENELAUS, _and_ CALCHAS.[1681]
