SCENE II.

Don Sancho, Seriffa.
D. SAN.
Madam believe, I could not justifie
The love I did pretend, if in this businesse
I should preferre my passion before
Your honour and content, I heare your brother
The King has reconcil'd to you, it refts
I let him know how much he owes to justice.

SER.
But as you do it, spare my modesty,
I would not be an offer, but his choice.

D. SAN.
As you have given credit to my faith,
In this distrust not my discretion,
It is your honour which I seek, to which
I made my love submit, and can you think
I will not now preserve it, I am here
T'attend the King as sent for, and shall use
All opportunities to do you service,
Please but your Highnesse to retire.

SER.
Bequeathing to thy care, the hopes of all
My future happinesse.

Exit.
D. SAN.
Your Highnesse servant.
