Full speech
King of Natoliam, let us treat of peace, We all are glutted with the Christians blood, And have a greater foe to fight against, Proud Tamburlaine, that now in Asia, Near Guyrons head does set his conquering feet, And means to fire Turkey as he goes: Gainst him my Lord must you address your power. Yet stout Orcanes, Prorex of the world, Since Tamburlaine hath mustered all his men, Marching from Cairon northward with his camp, To Alexandria, and the frontier towns, Meanung to make a conquest of our land: 'Tis requisite to parley for a peace With Sigismond the king of Hungary: And save our forces for the hight assaults Proud Tamburlaine intends Natoliam. Kings of Natoliam and of Hungary, We came from Turkey to confirm a league, And not to dare eeh other to the field: A friendly parley might become you both. And now come we to make his sinews shake, With greater power than erst his pride hath felt, And hundred kings by scores will bid him arms, And hundred thousands subjects to each score: Which if a shower of wounding thunderbolts Should break out off the bowels of the clouds And fallen as thick as hail upon our heads, In partial aid of that proud Scythian, Yet should our courages and steeled crests, And numbers more than infinite of men, Be able to withstand and conquer him. Hell and confusion light upon their heads, That with such treason seek our overthrow, And cares so little for their prophet Christ. See here the perjured traitor Hungary, Bloody and breathless for his villainy. 'Tis but the fortune of the wars my Lord, Whose power is often proved a miracle.
