Scen. 8.

Chorus.
Song 1.

1.

Let sweet face'd Hymens nuptiall songs
Fill all, both hearts and years,
With grace to quell the mournful day
That brings in jealous fears.

2.

And no compendium of state
Drop envy to the hour,
That Bride and Bridegroom spend their time,
As in a pleasant bower.

3.

Strange factious doing in the Land,
Brings not a slavery
Unto the Magistrates of it,
By foul conspiracy.

4.

Isis flowry banks shews not fair
To that joyfull couple,
Nor Mulmutius half so stout
When his Sons did grapple.

5.

Then let the leader of all hope
Hollow triumphant fame,
And let bright Sol beraze the day
Of such a nuptiall train.

[Chorus.]
Song 2.

1.

Still am I forc'd to fly,
And be a traytor to my King,
Because her obstinacy
Doth force a horrid combating,
Lerenica
Doth bear the sway
Of all this troubled distract,
Causeth ruine
And undoing, oh most unseeming act.


2.

Celerinus shall inclose,
And know vermillion from white,
With his Bruzantia's foes,
And frame a field, them for to fight,
Make a battle
Which will rattle.
Sending thousands by the fact
Unto their home,
And their dark tombe, oh most unseeming act,
Wayliday, wayliday, wayliday, wayliday.
