Faust. These gracious words, most royall Carolus, For proofe whereof, if so your Grace be pleas'd, 1070 To cast his Magicke charmes, that shall pierce through 1075 The Ebon gates of euer-burning hell, And hale the stubborne Furies from their caues, To_compasse whatsoere your grace commands.

Doctor, an your Diuels come not away quickly, you shall haue me asleepe presently: zounds I could eate my selfe for anger, to thinke I haue beene such an Asse all this while, to stand gaping after the diuels Gouernor, and can see nothing. Faust. Ile make you feele something anon, if my Art faile me not. My Lord, I must forewarne your Maiesty, That when my Spirits present the royall shapes 1100 Your grace demand no questions of the King, But in dumbe silence let them come and goe. Emp. Be it as Faustus please, we are content. Ben.

Zounds Doctor, is this your villany? Faust. O say not so sir: the Doctor has no skill, No Art, no cunning, to present these Lords, 1145 1150 In bold Acteons shape to turne a Stagge.
