SCENE II.
The Camp of Hengist.Enter Hengist and Horsus.
Heng.
Have Vortigern's brave sons yet ta'en their station?
Hor.
Yea, to our right the Briton's strength is form'd.
Heng.
Then bid them wait the enemies attack.
[Exit Hor.
Now, O ye Gods! prove but propitious to me,
And yield me but the victory this day:
A mightier force I've summon'd to this island,
And with them my fair daughter will arrive;
If then her beauty catch this vicious King,
E'en as mine own I'll hail this fertile land,
And these brave Britons by my arts and arms,
Bind to a foreign yoke.
[Exit.
