ONe of the crucified bodies taken down! And the Sentinel not to be herd off? Make out; hast, search about for him; does none of you know him? nor his name? For whom serves he? you look well to your watch ma sters. You're eloquent. Abroad I say, let me have him. Exeunt. This negligence will by the Governor be wholly cast on me, he hereby will suggest to the Viceroy, that the City guards are very caresly attended. He loves me not I know; because of late I knew him but of mean condition; but now by Fortune's injudicious hand, guided by bribing Courtiers, he is raised to this high seat of honour. Nor blushes he, to see him self and uanc't over the heads of ten times higher worths; but takes it all forsooth, to his merits; and looks (as all upstarts do) for most huge observance. Well, my mind must stoop to his high place, and learn within it self to sever him from that, and to adore Authority the Goddess, how ever born by and un worthy beast; and let the Beasts dull apprehension take the honour done to Isis, done to himself. I must fit fast, and be sure to give no hold to these fault-hunting enemies. Exit. BRing him away; you must have patience Sir: If you can say ought to quit you of those presumptions that lie heavy on you, you shall be herd. If not, 'tis not your braves, nor your affecting looks can carry it. We must acquit our duties. You take me right. 'Twill not be so put off friend Lycus, I could wish your soul as free from taint of this foul fact; as mine from any such unworthy practice. First Sir, I'll bear you to Lysander's Tomb, to confront the murdered body; and see what evidence the wounds will yield against you. You're gallant Sir. Well Sir, perhaps I may, if this conclusion take not; weel try what operation lies in torture, to pull confession from you. How's that? I'll think ont hereafter. Mean time I have other em ploiment for you. No hast Sir; heel soon be here without your summons. Where found you him? Well said, guard him safe, burr for the Corpse. Mischief in this act hath a deep bottom; and requires more time to found it. But you Sir, it seems, are a Soldier of the newest stamp. Know you what 'tis to forsake your stand? There's one of the bodies in your charge stolen away; how answer you that? See here comes the Governor. Room for a strange Governor. The perfect draught of a most brainless, imperious upstarted. Oh desert! where Wertenberg thou, when this wooden dagger was guilded oh ver with the Title of Governor? Is't Lycus you mean my Lord? My Lord, this is the Sentinel you speak of.
Plot summary
Plot — The Widow's Tears
Renouncing Fortune and devoting himself instead to the goddess Confidence, Tharsalio intends to woo the widowed Countess Eudora. His wooing technique is grossly sexual, and he also quarrels with a rival, Rebus. Rebuffed and mocked by his family, he seeks out Arsace and bribes her to advise Eudora not to marry him, but when he returns to her and throws out Rebus, he is rejected a second time. Finally, however, she accepts him, and their wedding is marked by a masque. ===== PAGE 180 ===== Lysander is concerned about his wife Cynthia’s constancy, and plans to test it by faking his own death: with the help of Lycus he undertakes a journey and sends back a report that he has been murdered by mountain bandits. His body is interred in the family monument; Cynthia and her waiting-woman go to live in the tomb in order to be near him. Lysander returns incognito, disguised as a soldier assigned as the sentinel of the cemetery. He successfully seduces Cynthia, but she insists that their liaison be conducted privately to avoid compromising her reputation. Tharsalio sees them kissing inside the tomb and takes revenge on the ‘sentinel’ by stealing one of the crucified bodies he is supposed to be watching. When this is discovered, Cynthia suggests disinterring Lysander’s body and substituting it for the stolen one. Lysander goes to fetch a crowbar, removes his disguise, and meets Tharsalio, who deduces what is happening and informs Cynthia. She is thus able to pretend that she knew who the ‘sentinel’ was all along. Lycus is arrested for Lysander’s murder, and the tomb is opened to test whether his presence will make the corpse’s wounds bleed; but the coffin proves to be empty, and the ‘sentinel’ is found hiding in the tomb. Both men are sent for trial by the Governor, recently appointed with a hard-line law-and-order policy. Eudora intervenes to explain the truth, and Lycus is released; after Tharsalio replaces the stolen body, so is Lysander. Tharsalio allows him to believe that Cynthia was never tempted to infidelity.
