MEANDER。 Then�察 �noble soldiers�察 �to entrap these thieves That live
confounded in disorder'd troops�察�If wealth or riches may prevail with them�察�
We have our camels laden all with gold�察�Which you that be but common
soldiers Shall fling in every corner of the field�察�And�察�while the base´born
Tartars take it up�察 �You�察 �fighting more for honour than for gold�察 �Shall
massacre those greedy´minded slaves�察�And�察 �when their scatter'd army is
subdu'd�察�And you march on their slaughter'd carcasses�察�Share equally the
gold that bought their lives�察�And live like gentlemen in Persia。 Strike up
the drum�察�and march courageously�此�Fortune herself doth sit upon our
crests。
MYCETES。 He tells you true�察�my masters�察�so he does。 Drums�察�why
sound ye not when Meander speaks�拭。�Exeunt�察�drums sounding。�А�

TAMBURLAINE THE GREAT
SCENE III。
Enter COSROE�察 �TAMBURLAINE�察�THERIDAMAS�察 �TECHELLES�察�
USUMCASANE�察�and ORTYGIUS�察�with others。
COSROE。 Now�察�worthy Tamburlaine�察�have I repos'd In thy approved
fortunes all my hope。 What think'st thou�察�man�察�shall come of our attempts�拭�
For�察�even as from assured oracle�察�I take thy doom for satisfaction。
TAMBURLAINE。 And so mistake you not a whit�察�my lord�察�For fates
and oracles ��of�А�heaven have sworn To royalize the deeds of Tamburlaine�察�
And make them blest that share in his attempts�此�And doubt you not but�察�if
you favour me�察�And let my fortunes and my valour sway To some
direction in your martial deeds�察�The world will strive with hosts of
men´at´arms To swarm unto the ensign I support。 The host of Xerxes�察�
which by fame is said To drink the mighty Parthian Araris�察 �Was but a
handful to that we will have�此�Our quivering lances�察�shaking in the air�察�And
bullets�察 �like Jove's dreadful thunderbolts�察 �Enroll'd in flames and fiery
smouldering mists�察�Shall threat the gods more than Cyclopian wars�察�And
with our sun´bright armour�察 �as we march�察 �We'll chase the stars from
heaven�察�and dim their eyes That stand and muse at our admired arms。
THERIDAMAS。 You see�察�my lord�察�what working words he hath�察�But�察�
when you see his actions top his speech�察�Your speech will stay�察�or so
extol his worth As I shall be commended and excus'd For turning my poor
charge to his direction�此�And these his two renowmed friends�察�my lord�察�
Would make one thirst and strive to be retain'd In such a great degree
of amity。
TECHELLES。 With duty and with amity we yield Our utmost
service to the fair Cosroe。
COSROE。 Which I esteem as portion of my crown。 Usumcasane and
Techelles both�察�When she that rules in Rhamnus' golden gates�察�
And makes a passage for all prosperous arms�察 �Shall make me solely
emperor of Asia�察�Then shall your meeds and valours be advanc'd To
rooms of honour and nobility。
TAMBURLAINE。 Then haste�察 �Cosroe�察�to be king alone�察�That I with
these my friends and all my men May triumph in our long´expected fate。

TAMBURLAINE THE GREAT
The king�察�your brother�察�is now hard at hand�此�Meet with the fool�察�and rid
your royal shoulders Of such a burden as outweighs the sands And all the
craggy rocks of Caspia。
Enter a MESSENGER。
MESSENGER。 My lord�察 �We have discovered the enemy Ready to
charge you with a mighty army。
COSROE。 Come�察�Tamburlaine�察�now whet thy winged sword�察�And lift
thy lofty arm into the clouds�察�That it may reach the king of Persia's
crown�察�And set it safe on my victorious head。
TAMBURLAINE。 See where it is�察 �the keenest curtle´axe That e'er
made passage thorough Persian arms� �These are the wings shall make it
fly as swift As doth the lightning or the breath of heaven�察 �And kill as
sure as it swiftly flies。
COSROE。 Thy words assure me of kind success�此�Go�察�valiant soldier�察�
go before�察�and charge The fainting army of that foolish king。
TAMBURLAINE。 Usumcasane and Techelles�察�come�此�We are enow to
scare the enemy�察�And more than needs to make an emperor。 ��Exeunt to the
battle。�А�

SCENE IV。
Enter MYCETES with his crown in his hand。
MYCETES。 Accurs'd be he that first invented war� �They knew not�察�ah�察�
they knew not�察�simple men�察�How those were hit by pelting cannon´
shot Stand staggering like a quivering aspen´leaf Fearing the force of
Boreas' boisterous blasts� �In what a lamentable case were I�察�If nature had
not given me wisdom's lore� �For kings are clouts that every man shoots at�察�
Our crown the pin that thousands seek to cleave�此 �Therefore in
policy I think it good To hide it close�察�a goodly stratagem�察�And far from
any man that is a fool�此�So shall not I be known�察�or if I be�察�They cannot
take away my crown from me。 Here will I hide it in this simple hole。
Enter TAMBURLAINE。
TAMBURLAINE。 What�察 �fearful coward�察 �straggling from the camp�察�
When kings themselves are present in the field�拭�
MYCETES。 Thou liest。
TAMBURLAINE。 Base villain�察�darest thou give me the lie�拭�
MYCETES。 Away� �I am the king�察�go�察�touch me not。 Thou break'st the
law of arms�察�unless thou kneel�察�And cry me ;mercy�察�noble king� ─�
TAMBURLAINE。 Are you the witty king of Persia�拭�
MYCETES。 Ay�察�marry�察�am I�此�have you any suit to me�拭�
TAMBURLAINE。 I would entreat you to speak but three wise words。
MYCETES。 So I can when I see my time。
TAMBURLAINE。 Is this your crown�拭�
MYCETES。 Ay�此�didst thou ever see a fairer�拭�
TAMBURLAINE。 You will not sell it�察�will you�拭�
MYCETES。 Such another word�察�and I will have thee executed。 Come�察�
give it me。
TAMBURLAINE。 No�察�I took it prisoner。
MYCETES。 You lie�察�I gave it you。
TAMBURLAINE。 Then 'tis mine。
MYCETES。 No�察�I mean I let you keep it。
TAMBURLAINE。 Well�察�I mean you shall have it again。 Here�察�take it
for a while�此�I lend it thee�察�Till I may see thee hemm'd with armed men�察�

Then shalt thou see me pull it from thy head�此 �Thou art no match for
mighty Tamburlaine。 ��Exit。�А�
MYCETES。 O gods�察�is this Tamburlaine the thief�拭�I marvel much he
stole it not away。 ��Trumpets within sound to the battle�此�he runs out。�А�

ORTYGIUS�察 �THERIDAMAS�察 �TECHELLES�察 �USUMCASANE�察 �with
others。
TAMBURLAINE。 Hold thee�察 �Cosroe�察 �wear two imperial crowns�察�
Think thee invested now as royally�察 �Even by the mighty hand of
Tamburlaine�察�As if as many kings as could encompass thee With greatest
pomp had crown'd thee emperor。
COSROE。 So do I�察 �thrice´renowmed man´at´arms�察 �And none
shall keep the crown but Tamburlaine�此�Thee do I make my regent of Persia�察�
And general´lieutenant of my armies。 Meander�察 �you�察 �that were our
brother's guide�察�And chiefest counsellor in all his acts�察�Since he is
yielded to the stroke of war�察�On your submission we with thanks excus
