ARSACES.
Oh ! view me better.
Say, do I wear the gloomy ruflSan's frown ?
BETHAS.
Ha ! 'tis the gallant Prince, the brave Arsaces, And Bethas' Conqueror.
THE PRINCE OF PARTHIA 115 ARSACES.
And Bethas' friend, A name I'm proud to wear.
BETHAS.
Away — away — Mock with your jester to divert the court.
Fit Scene for sportive joys and froUc mirth ; Thinkst thou I lack that manly constancy Which braves misfortune, and remains unshaken ?
Are these, are these the emblems of thy friendship.
These rankli...ng chains, say, does it gall Uke these ?
No, let me taste the bitterness of sorrow.
For I am reconcil'd to wretchedness.
The Gods have empty'd all their mighty store.
Of hoarded Ills, upon my whiten'd age ; Now death — but, oh ! I court coy death in vain.
Like a cold maid, he scorns my fond complaining.
'Tis thou, insulting Prince, 'tis thou hast dragg'd My soul, just rising, down again to earth.
And clogg'd her wings with dull mortality, A hateful bondage ! Why — ARSACES.
A moment hear me — BETHAS.
