I well perceive (my friends) says he, ye are
Attendants to this Lord, whose pleasant aire,
And stately Pallace, makes me bold to be
His Orator, desiring libertie
A while to be his Guest, I'le therefore stay
To wait his favourable answer; Nay
Reply'd the Servants, you may please, my Lord,
T' approach, we know his goodness will afford
A lib'ral wellcome; 'tis well known, that he
Is not a niggard of his Courtesie.
Therefore be pleas'd t' approach without delay,
And we'le be bold (my Lord) to lead the way;
Away they went; At last they drawing near
Unto the house, Kalander did appear
Nobly attended, which Dimagoras spy'd,
And soon dis-Coach'd himself, and thus aply'd
Himself unto him; If my unhandsome Fate,
My Lord, says he, makes me unfortunate
In my obtaining favour from your hands
For my presumption, here your servant stands
To wait your will; With that, Kalander stayd
The Current of his Language, and thus sayd.
