VI.

Lamingtowne, Philpott, and Robyne.
Lam.
Thou sayest, man, that thou would'st go with me,
And bear a part in all my men's emprise;
Think well upon the dangers of the sea,
And guess if that will not thee recradize,
When through the skies the levin-brandè flies,
And levins sparkle in the whited oundes,
Seeming to rise at lepestones to the skies,
And not contented be with its set bounds.
Then rolls the bark and tosses to and fro;
Such dreary scenes as this will cast thy blood, I trow.
