SCENE I.

ALPHONSO.
Married! Then what a wretch art thou, ALPHONSO?
Just married!—Fates, I am your daily sport.
Born to be wretched, all my life has been
A train of strange mischances. Married! and to
My most detested foe!—Death! must this be?
It shall not, were all hell in arms to guard
This imp of treachery. My quick revenge
Shall burst this fiend-tied most unnatural knot,
And make all villains quake—

A SERVANT.
My Lady, Sir,
The Countess will attend you.

ALPHONSO.
'Tis well. I thank you.—
The Countess! Vengeance! Oh I shall run mad!—
My fluttering heart! She comes! I caught a glimpse
That charms and tortures me.
