SCENE XV.

Fulvia
alone.
Too cruel Fortune! persecute me still,
And raise new troubles to disturb my peace:
Incense Honoria, kindle jealousy
In Cæsar's breast, and render Ætius wretched;
Deprive me of a father's fostering care,
But never shalt thou rob me of my love:
For spite of thee, thy rigour shall exalt
The glorious triumph of my constant heart.
332

While zephyr breathes a gentle breeze,
And calms to peace the ruffled seas,
Each vessel flies with prosperous gales,
Each happy pilot careless sails.
The proof of courage is to abide
The roaring billows' adverse force;
To stem the rough tempestuous tide,
Nor wander from the destin'd course.

[Exit.
