Ori. [Weeping.] There breaks the noblest heart that ever burn'd

In flames of love, for ever to be mourn'd.

Ama. Lavish to him, you wrong an equal flame;
Had he been lov'd, my heart had done the fame.
Flor. Oh emperor! all ages must agree,
Such, but more happy, fhou'd all lovers be.
Urg. [To Oriana ]

No lover now throughout the world remains,
But Amadis, deferving of your chains.
Remove that mournful object from the fight.

[Carry of the body.
Ere yon bright beams are shadow'd o'er with night.
The stubborn king shall license your delight ;
The torch, already bright with nuptial fire,
Shall bring you to the bridegroom you defire;
And honour, which fo long has kept in doubt,
Be better pleas'd to yield, than to hold out.

[Flourish of all the mufic. The ftage fills with fingers and dancers in the habits of heroes and heroines.

Urganda conducts Amadis, Oriana, etc. to a seat during the following entertainment.

First voice.

Make room for the combat, make room ¿

Sound the trumpet and drum ;
A fairer than Venus prepares
To encounter a greater than Mars.

The gods of defire take part in the fray,

And love fits like Jove, to decide the great day.

Make room for the combat, make room;

Sound the trumpet and drum.

Second voice.

Give the word to begin,

Let the combatants in,

The challenger enters all glorious;

But love has decreed

Tho' beauty may bleed,

Yet beauty fhall still be victorious.

Chorus.

Make room for the combat, make room;

Sound the trumpet and drum.

[Here two parties enter from the opposite fides of the theatre,

arm'd at all points, marching in warlike order. And then dance feveral Pyrric or martial dances, with fwords and bucklers. Which ended, the fingers again advance. To be fung.

Help! help! th' unpractis'd conqu’ror cries ;

He faints, he falls; help! help! ah me ! he dies ;
Gently he tries to raise his head,

And weeps, alas! to think him dead.

Sound, found a charge,- -'tis war again;

Again he fights, again is flain;

Again, again, help! help! She cries,

He faints, he falls, help! help! ah me! he dies.
Dance of heroes and heroines.

Then fingers again come forward.
To be fung.

Happy pair,

Free from care,
Enjoy the blessing

Of sweet poffeffing;
Free from care,

Happy pair.

Love inviting,

Souls uniting;
Defiring,
Expiring;
Enjoy the bleffing

Of fweet poffeffing;

Free from care,

Happy pair.

Another dance of heroes and heroines.

Then a full Chorus of all the voices and inftruments.

Be true, all ye lovers, whate'er you endure ;

Tho' cruel the pain is, how fweet is the cure!

In the hour of poffeffing,

So divine is the bleffing,

That one moment's obtaining,

Pays an age of complaining.

Be true, all ye lovers, whate'er you endure,

Tho' cruel the pain is how fweet is the cure!

[Here follows variety of dances, with which the entertainment concluding, Amadis, Oriana, etc. rife and come forward.

Ama. So Phoebus mounts triumphant in the skies,
The clouds difperfe, and gloomy horror flies;
Darkness gives place to the victorious light,
And all around is gay, and all around is bright.
Ori. Our present joys are sweeter for past pain ;
To love and heav'n, by fuff'ring we attain.

Urg. Whate'er the virtuous and the just endure,
Slow the reward may be, but always fure.

[Atriumphant flourish of all the inftruments, with which the play concludes.

The end of the fifth A.

EPILOGUE.

By the Right Honourable JOSEPH ADDISON, Efq;

WHEN ORPHEUS tun'd his pipe with pleasing woe,

Rivers forgot to run, and winds to blow ;

While liftning forefts cover'd, as he play'd,
The foft musician in a moving shade.

That this night's ftrains the fame fuccefs may find,
The force of magic is to beauty join'd :
Where founding Strings, and artful voices fail,
The charming rod, and mutter'd spells prevail.
Let fage URGAN DA wave the circling wand
On barren mountains, or a waste of fand,
The defart fmiles, the woods begin to grow,
The birds to warble, and the springs to flow.

The fame dull fights in the fame landskip mixt,
Scenes of ftill life, and points for ever fixt,
A tedious pleasure on the mind beftow,
And pall the fenfe with one continu'd show :
But as our two magicians try their skill,
The vifion varies, tho' the place ftands still;
While the fame Spot its gaudy form renews,
Shifting the profpect to a thousand views.
Thus (without unity of place tranfgrefs'd)
Th enchanter turns the critic to a jeft.

But how foe'er to please your wand'ring eyes,
Bright objects disappear, and brighter rife:
There's none can make
While from that circle

amends for loft delight,

*

we divert your fight.

* The ladies.

THE END.
