Of virtuous honour to eternal Fate!

I'll beat the winds, and make the tides keep back!

Reign in the sea, that lovers have no wrack!

"Yes, tell the Earth, 'It is a murderer!

Hath slain Vitullia!' O Vitullia's dead!

I'll count blind Cupid for a conjurer,

And with wild horses will I rend his head!

I, with a pickaxe, will pluck out his brains!

Laugh at this boy! ease lovers of much pains!
