Scene 6.
Enter Manuel wounded.Man.
Oh cruel Witch! inhumane Sorceress!
I'm pepper'd now for all my wickedness:
Incarnate Devil! for my Ruine sent!
All Curses Men and Devils can invent,
And mine besides, fall on thy bloody Heart—
Enter Teresa with a Dagger in her hand, dragging in Leonella.
Ter.
Come! come along, I'll teach you a new Art
To couple; do ye roar in consort now?
Dry'd Dog! I was not good enough for you:
Would ye be yoak'd? I'll see ye yoak'd, I will,
You shall be joyn'd; what are you roaring still?
Silence! and hear your heavy Doom: Now Dame!
Now bold Hussey! was there no other Game?
64
Who shall be Mistriss now, of you or I.
Leon.
Dear Madam! O Heav'ns! hear what I can say—
Ter.
Noble Signior! pray bow your head this way,
See your Ven'son quarter'd, and when that's done,
With you I'll finish what I have begun.
Man.
My Royal Donna! dear Teresa hold!
I'll be thy Slave—
Ter.
Poor Fool! thou art too old:
In Prayers spend thy time, for 'tis but short,
Or curse me if thou wilt, I care not for't.
Have at thee—
Enter Larasco running in his Armour, and Perez following him in his Shroud.
Lar.
Oh a Ghost! a Ghost away!—
Perez.
No Ghost! I am no Ghost! good Neighbors stay—
All run off in a fright, Perez pursuing them.
