And shining stones upon their lofty crests�察�Now living idle in the walled 

towns�察    �Wanting    both    pay   and   martial   discipline�察  �Begin    in  troops   to 

threaten civil war�察�And openly exclaim against their king�此�Therefore�察�

to   stay   all  sudden    mutinies�察  �We    will   invest  your    highness    emperor�察�

Whereat the soldiers will conceive more joy Than did the Macedonians at 

the spoil Of great Darius and his wealthy host。 

     COSROE。 Well�察�since I see the state of Persia droop And languish in 

my brother's government�察�I willingly receive th' imperial crown�察�And vow 

to wear it for my country's good�察�In spite of them shall malice my estate。 

     ORTYGIUS。 And�察�in assurance of desir'd success�察�We here do crown 

thee monarch of the East Emperor of Asia and Persia�察�Great lord 

of Media and Armenia�察�Duke of Africa and Albania�察�Mesopotamia and of 

Parthia�察�East India and the late´discover'd isles�察�Chief lord of all the wide 

vast Euxine Sea�察�And of the ever´raging Caspian Lake。 

     ALL。 Long live Cosroe�察�mighty emperor� �

     COSROE。 And   Jove   may   never   let   me   longer   live   Than   I   may 

seek to gratify your love�察�And cause the soldiers that thus honour me To 

triumph   over   many   provinces�   �By   whose  desires   of   discipline   in   arms   I 

doubt not shortly but to reign sole king�察�And with the army of Theridamas 

��Whither     we   presently   will   fly�察 �my   lords�撮�  To   rest  secure   against   my 

brother's force。 

     ORTYGIUS。  We   knew�察  �my   lord�察  �before   we   brought   the   crown�察�

Intending your investion so near The residence of your despised brother�察�

The   lords   would   not   be   too   exasperate   To   injury   or   suppress

    COSROE。 I know it well�察�my lord�察�and thank you all。

                                      SCENE II。 



       Enter    TAMBURLAINE             leading    ZENOCRATE�察          �TECHELLES�察�

USUMCASANE�察            �AGYDAS�察      �MAGNETES�察         �LORDS�察     �and   SOLDIERS 

loaden with treasure。 

     TAMBURLAINE。   Come�察  �lady�察  �let   not   this   appal   your   thoughts�察  �The 

jewels and the treasure we have ta'en Shall be reserv'd�察�and you in better 

state Than if you were arriv'd in Syria�察�Even in the circle of your father's 

arms�察�The mighty Soldan of Aegyptia。 

     ZENOCRATE。 Ah�察  �shepherd�察  �pity   my   distressed   plight�   。�If�察  �as   thou 

seem'st�察�thou art so mean a man�撮� And seek not to enrich thy followers By 

lawless rapine from a silly maid�察�Who�察�travelling with these Median 

lords   To   Memphis�察  �from   my   uncle's   country   of   Media�察  �Where�察  �all   my 

youth�察 �I have   been   governed�察 �Have pass'd   the   army  of   the   mighty Turk�察�

Bearing   his   privy´signet   and   his   hand   To   safe´conduct   us   thorough 

Africa。 

     MAGNETES。   And�察  �since   we   have   arriv'd   in       Scythia�察  �Besides   rich 

presents     from   the   puissant   Cham�察    �We   have    his  highness'   letters   to 

command Aid and assistance�察�if we stand in need。 

     TAMBURLAINE。 But now   you see   these letters   and commands Are 

countermanded   by   a   greater   man�察�And   through   my   provinces   you   must 

expect Letters of conduct from my mightiness�察�If you intend to keep your 

treasure safe。 But�察�since I love to live at liberty�察�As easily may you get the 

Soldan's crown As any prizes out of my precinct�察�For they are friends that 

help to wean my state Till men and kingdoms help to strengthen it�察�And 

must   maintain   my  life   exempt   from  servitude。   But�察�tell   me�察  �madam�察 �is 

your grace betroth'd�拭�

     ZENOCRATE。 I am�察�my lord��for so you do import。 

     TAMBURLAINE。 I am a lord�察�for so my deeds shall prove�察�And yet a 

shepherd by my parentage。 But�察�lady�察�this fair face and heavenly hue Must 

grace his bed that conquers Asia�察�And means to be a terror to the world�察�

Measuring the limits of his empery By east and west�察�as Phoebus doth his 

course。 Lie here�察�ye weeds�察�that I disdain to wear� �This complete armour 

and   this   curtle´axe   Are   adjuncts   more   beseeming   Tamburlaine。       And�察�

madam�察�whatsoever you esteem Of this success�察�and loss unvalued�察�

Both may invest you empress of the East�察�And these that seem but   silly 

country   swains   May   have   the   leading   of   so   great   an   host As   with   their 

weight shall make the mountains quake�察�Even as when windy exhalations�察�

Fighting for passage�察�tilt within the earth。 

     TECHELLES。           As    princely    lions�察  �when     they   rouse    themselves�察�

Stretching their   paws�察  �and   threatening   herds   of   beasts�察 �So   in   his   armour 

looketh   Tamburlaine。   Methinks   I   see   kings   kneeling   at   his   feet�察�And   he 

with frowning brows and fiery looks Spurning their crowns from off their 

captive heads。 

     USUMCASANE。   And   making   thee   and   me�察  �Techelles�察  �kings�察  �That 

even to death will follow Tamburlaine。 

     TAMBURLAINE。 Nobly resolv'd�察�sweet friends and followers� �These 

lords    perhaps     do   scorn    our   estimates�察    �And    think    we   prattle   with 

distemper'd spirits�此�But�察�since they measure our deserts so mean�察�That in 

conceit bear empires on our spears�察�Affecting thoughts coequal with 

the   clouds�察  �They   shall   be   kept   our   forced   followers   Till   with   their   eyes 

they view us emperors。 

     ZENOCRATE。           The    gods�察  �defenders     of   the   innocent。    Will   never 

prosper your intended drifts�察�That thus oppress poor friendless passengers。 

Therefore at least admit us liberty�察�Even as thou hop'st to be eternized By 

living Asia's mighty emperor。 

     AGYDAS。   I   hope   our   lady's   treasure   and   our   own   May   serve   for 

ransom to our liberties�此�Return our mules and empty camels back�察�That we 

may travel into Syria�察�Where her betrothed lord�察�Alcidamus�察�Expects the 

arrival of her highness' person。 

     MAGNETES。 And   wheresoever   we   repose   ourselves�察�We   will   report 

but well of Tamburlaine。 

     TAMBURLAINE。   Disdains   Zenocrate   to   live   with   me�拭  �Or   you�察  �my 

lords�察�to be my followers�拭�Think you I weigh this treasure more than you�拭�

Not all the gold in India's wealthy arms Shall buy the meanest soldier in 

my   train。   Zenocrate�察  �lovelier   than   the   love   of   Jove�察  �Brighter   than   is   the 

silver    Rhodope�察      �Fairer   than   whitest   snow     on  Scythian    hills�察 �Thy 

person is more worth to Tamburlaine Than the possession of the Persian

garments shall be made of Median silk�察�Enchas'd with precious jewels of 

mine own�察�More rich and valurous than Zenocrate's�察�With milk´white
