2692The stony girthes of Citties: me thy puple,

2693Yongest follower of thy Drom, instruct this day

2694With military skill, that to thy lawde

2695I may advance my Streamer, and by thee,

2696Be stil'd the Lord o'th day, give me great Mars

2697Some token of thy pleasure.

2701O Great Corrector of enormous times,

2702Shaker of ore-rank States, thou grand decider

2703Of dustie, and old tytles, that healst with blood

2704The earth when it is sicke, and curst the world

2705O'th pluresie of people; I doe take

2706Thy signes auspiciously, and in thy name

2707To my designe; march boldly, let us goe. Exeunt.

2710Pal. Our stars must glister with new fire, or be

2711To daie extinct; our argument is love,

2713Victory too, then blend your spirits with mine,

2714You, whose free noblenesse doe make my cause

2715Your personall hazard; to the goddesse Venus

2716Commend we our proceeding, and implore

2717Her power unto our partie. Here they kneele as formerly.

2718Haile Soveraigne Queene of secrets, who hast power

2719To call the feircest Tyrant from his rage;

2720And weepe unto a Girle; that ha'st the might

2721Even with an ey-glance, to choke Marsis Drom

2722And turne th'allarme to whispers, that canst make

2723A Criple florish with his Crutch, and cure him

2724Before Apollo; that may'st force the King

2725To be his subjects vassaile, and induce

2726Stale gravitie to daunce, the pould Bachelour

2727Whose youth like wanton Boyes through Bonfyres

2728Have skipt thy flame, at seaventy, thou canst catch

2729And make him to the scorne of his hoarse throate
