968Ki. Whose liues my Lady?

969Co. My thrice loning liege,

970Your Queene, and Salisbury my wedded husband,

971Who liuing haue that tytle in our loue,

972That we cannot bestow but by their death,

973Ki: Thy opposition is beyond our Law,

974Co. So is your desire, if the law

975Can hinder you to execute the one,

976Let it forbid you to attempt the other:

977I Cannot thinke you loue me as you say,

978Vnlesse you do make good what you haue sworne.

979 No mor, ethy husband and the Queene shall dye,

980Fairer thou art by farre, then Hero was,

981Beardles Leander not so strong as I:

982He swome an easie curraunt for his loue,

983But I will throng a hellie spout of bloud,

984To arryue at Cestus where my Hero lyes.

985Co: Nay youle do more, youle make the Ryuer to,

986With their hart bloods, that keepe our loue asunder,

987Of which my husband, and your wife are twayne.

988Ki. Thy beauty makes them guilty of their death,

989And giues in euidence that they shall dye,

990Vpon which verdict I their Iudge condemne them.

991Co: O periurde beautie, more corrupted Iudge:

992When to the great Starre-chamber ore our heads,

993The vniuersell Sessions cals to count,

994This packing euill, we both shall tremble for it.

995Ki. What saies my faire loue, is she resolute?

996Co. Resolute to be dissolude, and therefote this,

997Keepe but thy word great king, and I am thine,

998Stand where thou dost, ile part a little from thee

999And see how I will yeeld me to thy hands:

1000Here by my side doth hang my wedding knifes,

1001Take thou the one, and with it kill thy Queene

1002And learne by me to finde her where she lies
