Erastus.
Why, then, to thee or unto any else
I here protest by heav'ns unto you all,
That never was there man more true or just,
Or in his deeds more loyal and upright,
Or more loving or more innocent,
Than I have been to gracious Soliman,
Since first I set my feet on Turkish land.

But bright Perseda's beauty stops my tongue.

Marshal.
Why, sirs, why face to face express you not
The treasons you reveal'd to Soliman?
