Lay thy bow of pearl apart,

And thy crystal shining quiver;
Give unto the flying heart

Space to breathe, how short soever :
Thou that mak'st a day of night,
Goddess excellently bright.

GREEK VERSE.

Not so, my lord, the gods of Rome forefend,
I should be author to dishonour you
But, on mine honour, dare I undertake
For good lord Titus' innocence in all,

Whose fury, not dissembled, speaks his griefs.
Then, at my suit look graciously on him;
Lose not so noble a friend on vain suppose,
Nor with sour looks afflict his gentle heart.
My lord, be ruled by me, be won at last;
Dissemble all your griefs and discontents:
You are but newly planted in your
throne;
Lest then, the people, and patricians too,
Upon a just survey, take Titus' part,
And so supplant you for ingratitude,
Which Rome reputes to be a heinous sin,
Yield at intreats.
