Sleep that mortal sense deceives, Crown thine Eyes, and ease thy pain, Maist thou soon be well again.
_Clor. Satyr_, bring the Shepherd near, Try him if his mind be clear.
_Sat_. Shepherd come.
_Daph_. My thoughts are pure.
_Sat_. The better trial to endure.
_Clor_. In this flame his finger thrust, Which will burn him if he lust;But if not, away will turn, As loth unspotted flesh to burn:See, it gives back, let him go, Farewel mortal, keep thee so.
_Sat_. Stay fair _Nymph_, flye not so fast, We... must try if you be chaste:Here's a hand that quakes for fear, Sure she will not prove so clear.
_Clor. _ Hold her finger to the flame, That will yield her praise or shame.
_Sat. _ To her doom she dares not stand, But plucks away her tender hand, And the Taper darting sendsHis hot beams at her fingers ends:O thou art foul within, and hastA mind, if nothing else, unchaste.
_Alex. _ Is not that _Cloe?_ 'tis my Love, 'tis she!_Cloe_, fair _Cloe_.
_Clo. _ My Alexis.
_Alex. _ He.
_Clo. _ Let me embrace thee.
