PHILASTER.

EnterPhilasterandPharamond.

Cle. My Lord is come.

King. My Son!Blest be the time that I have leave to callSuch vertue mine; now thou art in mine arms,Me thinks I have a salve unto my breastFor all the stings that dwell there, streams of griefThat I have wrought thee, and as much of joyThat I repent it, issue from mine eyes:Let them appease thee, take thy right; take her,She is thy right too, and forget to urgeMy vexed soul with that I did before.

Phi. Sir, [it is] blotted from my memory,Past and forgotten: For you Prince ofSpain,Whom I have thus redeem'd, you have full leaveTo make an honourable voyage home.And if you would go furnish'd to your RealmWith fair provision, I do see a LadyMe thinks would gladly bear you company:How like you this piece?

Meg. Sir, he likes it well,For he hath tried it, and found it worthHis princely liking; we were ta'ne a bed,I know your meaning, I am not the firstThat Nature taught to seek a fellow forth:Can shame remain perpetually in me,And not in others? or have Princes salvesTo cure ill names that meaner people want?

Phi. What mean you?

Meg. You must get another ship To clear the Princess and the boy together.

Di. How now!

Meg. Others took me, and I took her and himAt that all women may be ta'ne sometimes:Ship us all four my Lord, we can endureWeather and wind alike.

King. Clear thou thy self, or know not me for Father.

Are. This earth, How false it is? what means is left for meTo clear my self? It lies in your belief,My Lords believe me, and let all things elseStruggle together to dishonour me.

Bell. O stop your ears great King, that I may speakAs freedom would, then I will call this LadyAs base as be her actions, hear me Sir,Believe [y]our hated bloud when it rebelsAgainst your reason sooner than this Lady.

Meg. By this good light he bears it hansomely.

Phi. This Lady? I will sooner trust the windWith Feathers, or the troubled Sea with Pearl,Than her with any thing; believe her not!Why think you, if I did believe her words;I would outlive 'em: honour cannot takeRevenge on you, then what were to be knownBut death?

King. Forget her Sir, since all is knitBetween us: but I must request of youOne favour, and will sadly be denied.

Phi. Command what ere it be.

King. Swear to be true to what you promise.

Phi. By the powers above, Let it not be the death of her or him, And it is granted.

King. Bear away the boyTo Torture, I will have her clear'd or buried.

Phi. O let me call my words back, worthy Sir,Ask something else, bury my life and rightIn one poor grave, but do not take away mylife and fame at once.King. Away with him, it stands irrevocable.

Phi. Turn all your eyes on me, here stands a manThe falsest and the basest of this world:Set swords against this breast some honest man,For I have liv'd till I am pitied,My former deeds are hateful, but this lastIs pitifull, for I unwillinglyHave given the dear preserver of my life

[Offers to kill himself.]

Unto his Torture: is it in the powerOf flesh and blood, to carry this and live?

Are. Dear Sir be patient yet, or stay that hand.

King. Sirs, strip that boy.

Di. Come Sir, your tender flesh will try your constancie.

Bell. O kill me gentlemen.

Di. No, help Sirs.

Bell. Will you Torture me?

King. Hast there, why stay you?

Bell. Then I shall not break my vow, You know just gods, though I discover all.

King. How's that? Will he confess?

Di. Sir, so he says.

King. Speak then.

Bell. Great King if you commandThis Lord to talk with me alone, my tongueUrg'd by my heart, shall utter all the thoughtsMy youth hath known, and stranger things than theseYou hear not often.

King. Walk aside with him.

Di. Why speak'st thou not?

Bell. Know you this face my Lord?

Di. No.

Bell. Have you not seen it, nor the like?

Di. Yes, I have seen the like, but readilyI know not where.

Bell. I have been often toldIn Court, of oneEuphrasia,a LadyAnd Daughter to you; betwixt whom and me(They that would flatter my bad face would swear)There was such strange resemblance, that we twoCould not be known asunder, drest alike.

Di. By Heaven and so there is.

Bell. For her fair sake,Who now doth spend the spring time of her lifeIn holy Pilgrimage, move to the King,That I may scape this Torture.

Di. But thou speak'stAs likeEuphrasiaas thou dost look,How came it to thy knowledge that shelives in Pilgrimage?

Bell. I know it not my Lord,But I have heard it, and do scarce believe it.

Di. Oh my shame, is't possible? Draw near,That I may gaze upon thee, art thou she?Or else her Murderer? where wert thou born?

Bell. InSiracusa.

Di. What's thy name?

Bell. Euphrasia.

Di. O 'tis just, 'tis she now, I do know thee, Ohthat thou hadst diedAnd I had never seen thee nor my shame,How shall I own thee? shall this tongue of mineE're call thee Daughter more?

Bell. Would I had died indeed, I wish it too,And so I must have done by vow, e're publishedWhat I have told, but that there was no meansTo hide it longer, yet I joy in this,The Princess is all clear.

King. What have you done?

Di. All is discovered.

Phi. Why then hold you me?

Di. All is discovered, pray you let me go. [He offers to stab himself_.]

King. Stay him.

Are. What is discovered?

Di. Why my shame, it is a woman, let her speak the rest.

Phi. How! that again.

Di. It is a woman.

Phi. Blest be you powers that favour innocence.

King. Lay hold upon that Lady.

Phi. It is a woman Sir, hark Gentlemen!It is a woman.ArethusatakeMy soul into thy breast, that would be goneWith joy: it is a woman, thou art fair,

And vertuous still to ages, in despight of malice.

King. Speak you, where lies his shame?

Bell. I am his Daughter.

Phi. The Gods are just.

Di. I dare accuse none, but before you twoThe vertue of our age, I bend my kneeFor mercy.

Phi. Take it freely; for I know,Though what thou didst were undiscreetly done,'Twas meant well.

Are. And for me,I have a power to pardon sins as oftAs any man has power to wrong me.

Cle. Noble and worthy.

Phi. ButBellario,(For I must call thee still so) tell me whyThou didst conceal thy Sex, it was a fault,A faultBellario, though thy other deedsOf truth outweigh'd it: All these JealousiesHad flown to nothing, if thou hadst discovered,What now we know.

Bell. My Father would oft speakYour worth and vertue, and as I did growMore and more apprehensive, I did thirstTo see the man so rais'd, but yet all thisWas but a Maiden longing to be lostAs soon as found, till sitting in my window,Printing my thoughts in Lawne, I saw a GodI thought (but it was you) enter our Gates,My bloud flew out, and back again as fastAs I had puft it forth, and suck't it inLike breath, then was I call'd away in hastTo entertain you. Never was a manHeav'd from a Sheep-coat to a Scepter rais'dSo high in thoughts as I, you left a kissUpon these lips then, which I mean to keepFrom you for ever, I did hear you talkFar above singing; after you were gone,I grew acquainted with my heart, and search'dWhat stir'd it so, Alas I found it love,Yet far from lust, for could I have but liv'dIn presence of you, I had had my end,For this I did delude my noble FatherWith a feign'd Pilgrimage, and drest my selfIn habit of a boy, and, for I knewMy birth no match for you, I was past hopeOf having you. And understanding wellThat when I made discovery of my Sex,I could not stay with you, I made a vowBy all the most religious things a MaidCould call together, never to be known,Whilst there was hope to hide me from mens eyes,For other than I seem'd; that I might everAbide with you, then sate I by the FountWhere first you took me up.

King. Search out a matchWithin our Kingdom where and when thou wilt,And I will pay thy Dowry, and thy selfWilt well deserve him.

Bell. Never Sir will IMarry, it is a thing within my vow,But if I may have leave to serve the Princess,To see the vertues of her Lord and her,I shall have hope to live.

Are. IPhilaster,Cannot be jealous, though you had a LadyDrest like a Page to serve you, nor will ISuspect her living here: come live with me,Live free, as I do, she that loves my Lord,Curst be the wife that hates her.

Phi. I grieve such vertues should be laid in earthWithout an Heir; hear me my Royal Father,Wrong not the freedom of our souls so much,To think to take revenge of that base woman,Her malice cannot hurt us: set her freeAs she was born, saving from shame and sin.

King. Set her at liberty, but leave the Court,This is no place for such: youPharamondShall have free passage, and a conduct homeWorthy so great a Prince, when you come there,Remember 'twas your faults that lost you her,And not my purpos'd will.

Pha. I do confess,Renowned Sir.

King. Last joyn your hands in one, enjoyPhilasterThis Kingdom which is yours, and after meWhat ever I call mine, my blessing on you,All happy hours be at your Marriage joyes,That you may grow your selves over all Lands,And live to see your plenteous branches springWhere ever there is Sun. Let Princes learnBy this to rule the passions of their blood,For what Heaven wills, can never be withstood.

[Exeunt Omnes.

This edition contains, on the title-page, a wood-cut representing 'The Princes' (The Princess) and 'A Cuntrie Gentellman' seated on the ground, and 'Phielaster' leaving them. See the scene in Act IV (ante, p. 125).

This edition contains on the title-page a small device of fleurs-de-lis.

On the back of the title-page (which contains the device of a crown) is a list of books printed or sold by William Leake. (H) Philaster | or, | Love lies a Bleeding: | Acted at the Globe, and Blackfriers, By his Majesties servants. | The Authors being Francis Beaumont, and John Fletcher, Gent. | The sixth Impression. | London, | Printed for William Leake, and are to be sold at his shop at the | signe of the Crown in Fleet street, between the two | Temple Gates.

This edition, conjecturally dated 1660 in the British Museum Catalogue, contains, on the back of the title-page and at the foot of the list of persons represented, lists of books printed or sold by William Leake at the Crown in Fleet Street.

A The first few pages and the last few pages of the play as printed in A vary so completely from the other texts that it has been necessary to print them separately. Seepost, pp. 401—3, 413—17.

B contains the following Address to the Reader:

'To the Reader.

'Courteous Reader.Philaster, andAnthusahis love, have laine so long a bleeding, by reason of some dangerous and gaping wounds, which they received in the first Impression, that it is wondered how they could goe abroad so long, or travaile so farre as they have done. Although they were hurt neither by me, nor the Printer; yet I knowing and finding by experience, how many well-wishers they have abroad, have adventured to bind up their wounds, & to enable them to visite upon better tearmes, such friends of theirs, as were pleased to take knowledge of them, so mained [? maimed] and deformed, as they at the first were; and if they were then gracious in your sight, assuredly they will now finde double favour, being reformed, and set forth suteable, to their birth, and breeding.

By your serviceable Friend,

Thomas Walkley.'

C prefixes to the play the following Address repeated with variations of spelling in the five later quartos:

'The Stationer, To the Understanding Gentrie.

'This play so affectionatly taken, and approoved by the Seeing Auditors, or Hearing Spectators, (of which sort, I take, or conceive you to bee the greatest part) hath received (as appeares by the copious vent of two [D and E three; F, G and H four] Editions,) no lesse acceptance with improovement of you likewise the Readers, albeit the first Impression swarm'd with Errors, prooving it selfe like pure Gold, which the more it hath beene tried and refined, the better is esteemed; the best Poems of this kind, in the first presentation, resemble [D—H resembling] that all tempting Minerall newly digged up, the Actors being onely the labouring Miners, but you the skilfull Triers and Refiners: Now considering [D—H consider] how currant this hath passed, under the infallible stampe of your judicious censure, and applause, and (like a gainefull Office in this Age) eagerly sought for, not onely by those that have heard & seene it, [F—Homitheard and] but by others that have meerely heard thereof: here you behold me acting the Merchant-adventurers part, yet as well for their satisfaction, as mine owne benefit, and if my hopes (which I hope, shall never lye like this LOVE A BLEEDING,) doe fairely arrive at their intended Haven, I shall then be ready to lade a new Bottome, and [D—Homitand] set foorth againe, to game the good-will both of you and them.

_Enter at severall doores _Lord Lyon, Trasiline,followes him,Clerimonmeetes them.

TRASILINE.Well ore tane my Lord.

LYON. Noble friend welcome, and see who encountersus, honourable goodClerimon.

CLE. My good LordLyon, most happily met worthyTrasiline, Come gallants, what's the newes, the season affoords us variety, the novilsts of our time runnes on heapes, to glut their itching eares with airie sounds, trotting to'th burse; and in the Temple walke with greater zeale to heare a novall lye, than a pyous Anthum tho chanted by Cherubins.

TRANS. True Sir:and holds set counsels, to vent their braine sicke opinionswith presagements what all states shall designe.

CLE. Thats as their intelligence serves.

LYON. And that shall serve as long as invention lastes, there dreames they relate, as spoke from Oracles, or if the gods should hold a synod, and make them their secritaries, they will divine and prophecie too: but come and speake your thoughts of the intended marriage with the Spanish Prince. He is come you see, and bravely entertainde.

TRAS. Hee is so, but not married yet.

CLE. But like to be, and shall have in dowry with thePrincesse this Kingdome ofCycele.

LEON. Soft and faire, there is more will forbid the baines, then say amen to the marriage: though the King usurped the Kingdome during the non-age of the PrincePhylaster, hee must not thinke to bereave him of it quite; hee is now come to yeares to claime the Crowne.

TRA. And lose his head i' the asking.

LEON. A diadem worn by a headlesse King wold be wonderous,Phylasteris too weake in power.

CLE. He hath many friends.

LEON. And few helpers.

TRA. The people love him.

LEON. I grant it, that the King knowes too well,And makes this Contract to make his faction strong:Whats a giddy-headed multitude,That's not Disciplinde nor trainde up in Armes,To be trusted unto? No, he that willBandy for a Monarchic, must provideBrave marshall troopes with resolution armde,To stand the shock of bloudy doubtfull warre,Not danted though disastrous Fate doth frowne,And spit all spightfull fury in their face:Defying horror in her ugliest forme,And growes more valiant, the more danger threats;Or let leane famine her affliction send,Whose pining plagues a second hel doth bring,Thei'le hold their courage in her height of spleene,Till valour win plenty to supply them,What thinke ye, would yer feast-hunting CitizensIndure this?

TRA. No sir, a faire march a mile out of town that their wives maybring them their dinners, is the hottest service that theyare trained up to.

CLE. I could wish their experience answered their loves,Then should the much too much wrongdPhylaster,Possesse his right in spight of Don and the divell.

TRA. My heart is with your wishes.

LEON. And so is mine,And so should all that loves their true borne Prince,Then let us joyne our Forces with our mindes,In whats our power to right this wronged Lord,And watch advantage as best may fit the timeTo stir the murmuring people up,Who is already possest with his wrongs,And easily would in rebellion rise,Which full well the King doth both know and feare,But first our service wee'le proffer to the Prince,And set our projects as he accepts of us;But husht, the King is comming.
