Scen. 2.

The Masque, wherein all the Vertues dance together.
Medio.
You have seene all my daughters, Gentlemen,
90

Chuse you wives hence; you that are Batchelors
Can finde no better; And the married too
May wed 'em, yet not wrong their former wives.
Two may have the same wife, and the same man
May wed two Vertues, yet no Bigamie:
He that weds most is chastest; These are all
The daughters of my wombe; I have five more,
The happy Issue of my Intellect,
And thence syrnam'd the intellectuall Vertues.
They now attend not on their Mothers train,
We hope they Act in each spectators braine!
I have a Neece besides, a beauteous one
My daughters deare companion—louely Friendship
A royall Nymph; her we present not to,
It is a vertue we expect from you.

Exit cum Choro contantium.
