and thus my heart unfays That unkind thought, and clafps thee never more To part again. Oh ! what muft thou have borne, Pent in thefe murky cells, 'midft loathfome vice ! Tell me, why didft thou hide thyfelf fo long ? Why from my weeping eyes conceal thy beauty Beneath thefe dripping weeds and fervile garb ? JULIANA. How often have I long'd into thy arms To fpring, and tell thee all ! but well I knew Thy generous nature never would confent That I fhould dwell within this baleful dungeon : Yet o...ther fpots were as a dreary defart ; And thefe damp, low-brow'd rocks, cheer 'd by thy prefence, Seem'd fumptuous palaces. 54 THE MINE : LEOPOLD. Tranfcendent love ! JULIANA. One happy look of thine o'erpays an age Of doleful penance. COUNT MAURICE. Greatly haft thou fuffer'd ! But fhades of paft misfortune fhall fet off Our brighter days. Come, let us now afcend For we have much to fay, and my glad heart Swells with fuch raptures as it ne'er can utter. \_Ex, Enter the QUEEN, and ATTENDANT SPIRITS.
