_Arn._ Another smile,
Another trick of fortune to betray us!
_Hip._ Why does your Lordship use me so unnobly?
Against my will to take away my bond-woman?
_Gov._ She was no lawful prize, therefore no bond-woman:
She's of that Country we hold friendship with,
And ever did, and therefore to be used
With entertainment, fair and courteous.
The breach of League in us gives foul example,
Therefore you must be pleas'd to think this honest;
Did you know what she was?
_Leop._ Not till this instant;
For had I known her, she had been no prisoner.
_Gov._ There, take the Maid, she is at her own dispose now,
And if there be ought else to do your honour
Any poor service in--
_Clod._ I am vowed your servant.
_Arn._ Your Father's here too, that's our only comfort,
And in a Country now, we stand free people,
Where _Clodio_ has no power, be comforted.
_Zen._ I fear some trick yet.
_Arn._ Be not so dejected.
_Gover._ You must not be displeas'd; so farewel Lady.
Come Gentlemen; Captain, you must with me too,
I have a little business.
_Leop._ I attend your Lordship:
Now my way's free, and my hope's Lord again.
[_Exeunt all but_ Hip.
