Chorus of Huntsmen. Chor. of Shepheardes with Siluio.Chor. Hunt.
O glorious child of great Alcides race,
That Monsters kilst, and Wild-bestes dost deface.
Cho. Sh.
O glorious child, who Erimantus Boore
Hast ouerthrowne, vnconquerable thought:
Behold his head, that seemes to breath out death,
Helpe Shepheardes helpe to celebrate his name,
And with solemnitie his deedes to grace.
Cho. Hu.
O glorious child of great Alcides race,
That Monsters kilst, and Wild-bestes dost deface.
Cho. Sh.
O glorious child, by whom the fertile plaines,
Depriu'd of tillage, haue their good regain:
Now may the Plough-man goe securesie, and
Sow both his Seede, and reape his Haruest in:
These ougly teeth can now no more them chace.
Cho. Hu.
O glorious child of great Alcides race,
That monsters shilst, and wild Beastes dost deface.
Cho. Sh.
O glorious child, how thou dost couple still
Pittie with fortitude. Cinthia behold
Thy humble Siluioes, vow; behold this head,
That here and here in thy despight is armd
With white and crooked tuskes, enuying thy hornes.
Thou puissant Goddesse, since thou didst direct
His shaft: the price of his great victorie
Is due to thee: hee famous by thy grace.
Cho. Hun.
O glorious child of great Alcides race,
That monsters kilst, and wild Beastes dost deface.
