Jup. Hate not, the best and fairest of your kind!

Nor can you hate your lover, though you would:

Your tears, that fall so gently, are but grief:

There may be anger; but there must be love.

The dove, that murmurs at her mate's neglect,

But counterfeits a coyness, to be courted.

Alcm. Courtship from thee, and after such affronts!

Jup. Is this that everlasting love you vowed

Last night, when I was circled in your arms?

Remember what you swore.
