SCENE VII.
Orontes and Cassandane.ORONTES.
Auspicious voice! I bless thee. Cassandane,
Fly to Melampus—Thou before hast seen him,
And, to diffuse felicity around,
With sweetest fraud deceiv'd him.
CASSANDANE.
Gracious lord,
I was instructed by the good Enchantress;
82
That, had Melampus to thy ears divulg'd me,
Thou wouldst have slighted Pherendates' daughter.
ORONTES.
They to the proffer'd blessing had been shut.
Too just reproach! Go, tell Melampus all;
Dwell on the dear narration, till thou gain'st
That matchless hero's pardon for my fault.
I will conduct Medea to his arms.
