Duke. Merchant of Syracufe, plead no

I am not partial to infringe our laws:
The enmity, and difcord, which of late

Sprung from the ranc'rous outrage of your Duke,
To merchants, our well dealing countrymen,

Have feal'd his rigorous ftatutes with their bloods)
Excludes all pity from our threatning looks.
For, fince the mortal and inteftine jars
'Twixt thy feditious countrymen and us,
It hath in folemn fynods been decreed,
Both by the Syracufians and ourselves,
