MOONEN
Well, see that ye be not slow
To come when I call, else will my wrath be great.
Emma besought Moonen so hardly that she might hear the play that he thereto consented, though sorely against his will as ye have heard. And the play began thus;
MASKEROON

Because He showeth to the vile human race
More of His pity and of His grace
