_Allen_. Yee timorous thoughts that guide my giddy steps In unknowne pathes of dreadfull wildernesse, Why traitor-like do you conspire to holde My pained heart twixt feare and jealousie? My too much care hath brought me carelesly, Into this woody savadge labyrinth, And I can finde no way to issue out; Feare hath so dazeled all my better part, That reason hath forgot discreations art. But in good time, see where is company.-- Kinde Gentlemen, if you, unlike my selfe, Are not incumbred with the circling wayes Of this erronious winding wildernesse, I pray you to direct me foorth this wood And showe the pathe that leades to _Padua_. _Duke_. We all are _Paduans_, and we all intend To passe forthwith with speed to _Padua_. _Allen_. I will attend upon you presently. [_See the bodyes_. _Duke_. Come then away:--but, gentlemen beholde, A bloody sight, and murtherous spectacle! 2 _Mur_. Oh, God, forgive me all my wickednesse And take me to eternall happinesse! _Duke_. Harke one of them hath some small sparke of life, To kindle knowledge of their sad mishaps. |
