SCENE. VI.

Augusta
alone.
A faithful Friend!
A chaste and virtuous Wife!
Is this the Lover has so often vow'd
Eternal Constancy to me?
Is this the Wife so generally fam'd
For exemplary Goodness?
How is my Brother and my self abus'd!
But he shall know, and I'll revenge their Infidelity.
Vengeance! Vengeance! swift overtake 'em,
May they never more be blest!
May the Gods as wretched make them,
As they've render'd me distress'd.
[Exit.
