With restless rage I wander through these woods, No creature here but feareth Bremo's force, Man, woman, child, beast and bird, And every thing that doth approach my sight, Are forced to fall if Bremo once but frown.
Come, cudgel, come, my partner in my spoils, For here I see this day it will not be;But when it falls that I encounter any, One pat sufficeth for to work my will.
What, comes not one? then let's begone;
A time will serve when we shall better speed.
[Exit.]
ACT II. SCENE IV. Arragon. a Room of State in the Court.
[Enter the King, Segasto, the Shepherd, and the Clown, with others.]
KING.
Shepherd, thou hast heard thin accusers;
Murther is laid to thy charge.
What canst thou say? thou hast deserved death.
MUCEDORUS.
Dread sovereign, I must needs confess, I slew this captain in mine own defence, Not of any malice, but by chance;But mine accuser hath a further meaning.
SEGASTO.
Words will not here prevail, I seek for justice, & justice craves his death.
KING.
Shepherd, thine own confession hath condemned thee.
Sirra, take him away, 7 do him to execution straight.
MOUSE.
So he shall, I warrant him; but do you hear, master King, he is kin to a monkey, his neck is bigger than his head.
SEGASTO.
