SCENE IV.

The Camp.
Zoravinze, Sobieski, and two Joint Deputies, with their Train.
ZORAVINZE.
We must remit the Article of Decampment
To the Grand Signior's own Determination—
The Prospect of our famish'd Troops, may raise
New Difficulties to retard the Peace;
Excite our Enemies to fresh Resolves,
And finally complete our Overthrow—

SOBIESKI.
Our General Lubomirski this foreseeing,
Order'd the Cossacks to repass the River,
Where from the Mountains you behold their Tents;
And Osman's Camp resounds with our Retreat—
This Article will therefore prove no Bar—
What else they can demand, we shall accord.

ZORAVINZE.
That Artifice may save our Credit—

SOBIESKI.
Doubt it not—
