SCENE I.
Enter Ate as before. Jason leading Creon's Daughter. Medea
following, a Garland in her Hand, and putting it on
Creon's Daughter's Head, setteth it on Fire, and then killing
Jason and her, departs.
Ate.
Non tam Trinacriis exæstuat Ætna cavernis,
Læsæ furtivo quam cor mulieris amore.
Medea seeing Jason leave her Love,
And chuse the Daughter of the Theban King,
Went to her devilish Charms to work Revenge;
And raising up the triple Hecate,
-- 3313 --
With all the rout of the condemned Fiends,
Framed a Garland by her magick Skill,
With which she wrought Jason and Creon's Ill.
So Guendeline seeing her self misus'd,
And Humber's Paramour possess her place,
Flies to the Dukedom of Cornubia,
And with her Brother stout Thrasimachus,
Gathering a Power of Cornish Soldiers,
Gives Battel to her Husband and his Host,
Nigh to the River of great Mercia:
The Chances of this dismal Massacre,
That which ensueth shortly will unfold.
[Exit.
