What news is it you bring?

ARI.
Of Cids good fortune,
And of the Rebels fate, he is hard by
Victorious and in health.

ARI.
He is not farre sir from the City walls,
Mean-while this Letter will confirme your Majesty,
Ith' truth of what I said.

K.
How am I ravish'd
And my soule burns with hot impatience
After this object which she so desires,
Go tell him that my thoughts are swift to see him,
Don Diego see that he be well received.
