Both ent'ring next, there sitting down, He draws
Fresh, milder Beer which Heat dispell'd, the Cause
Of droughty Thirst; retired then to Chair,
Set Countenance, as something would Declare
Which mark'd by Them, Fernanthe gave close Sign
They yet should Stay, with his Discourse combine.
Orsamnes asking him, How long did Dwell,
So Hermit-like, in that Reserved Cell.
