Tremelio's force saved thousands from the foe.

AMADINE.

The shepherd's force would have saved thousands more.

MOUSE.

Aye, shipsticks, nothing else.

KING.

Segasto, cease to accuse the shepherd, His worthiness deserves a recompense, All we are bound to do the shepherd good:

Shepherd, whereas it was my sentence, thou shouldst die, So shall my sentence stand, for thou shalt die.

SEGASTO.

Thanks to your majesty.

KING.

But soft, Segasto, not for this offence.--

Long maist thou live, and when the sisters shall decree to cut in twain the twisted thread of life, Then let him die: for this I set thee free:

And for thy valour I will honour thee.

MUCEDORUS.

Thanks to your majesty.

KING.

Come, daughter, let us now depart, to honour the worthy valour of the shepherd with our rewards.

[Exeunt.]

MOUSE.

O master, hear you, you have made a fresh hand now you would be slow, you; why, what will you do now? you have lost me a good occupation by the means. Faith, master, now I cannot hang the shepherd, I pray you, let me take the pains to hang you: it is but half an hour's exercise.

SEGASTO.

You are still in your knavery, but sith a I cannot have his life I will procure his banishment for ever.

Come one, sirra.

MOUSE.
