I pray make me the hostage; I am content

With any treatment, might I come to see

Your city of Fez, and from your southward folk

Learn their opinion of the Libyan coast,

Which some aver is circled by one sea

From where we stand to Suez.

K.And so it were,

I care no more than doth a caterpillar:

What could that serve? If thou’rt a man of peace,

The fitter then for our ambassador.
