Dev. Get up upon my backe.

Miles. O Lord, here's even a goodly marvel, when a man rides to hell on the devil's back!

Exeunt: [the Devil] roaring.

[Scene Sixteenth. At Court.]

Enter the Emperour with a pointlesse sword; next the King of Castile carrying a sword with a point; Lacy carrying the globe; Edward; Warraine carrying a rod of gold with a dove on it;[1571] Ermsby with a crowne and sceptre; the Queene; [Princess Elinor] with the faire Maide of Fresingfield on her left hand; Henry; Bacon; with other Lords attending.

Edward. Great potentates, earth's miracles for state,

Think that Prince Edward humbles at your feet,

And, for these favours, on his martial sword

He vows perpetuall homage to yourselves,

Yeelding these honours unto Ellinour. 5
