Du. O she that hath a heart of that fine frame To pay this debt of loue but to a brother, How will she loue, when the rich golden shaft Hath kill'd the flocke of all affections else That liue in her. When Liuer, Braine, and Heart, These soueraigne thrones, are all supply'd and fill'd Her sweete perfections with one selfe king: Away before me, to sweet beds of Flowres, Loue-thoughts lye rich, when canopy'd with bowres. Exeunt. Scena Secunda. Enter Viola, a Captaine, and Saylors. Vio. What Country (Friends) is this? Cap. This is Illyria Ladie Vio. And what should I do in Illyria?
