THe storm begins to cease, and this our miraculous deli∣verance calls for a hearty and speedy sacrifice; Let the Long-boat immediately search the wrack for the Princess Leu∣canthe.

What other Vessel's that? Some of the wrack swims still.

'Tis a Sicilian Galley by her Flag.

O Sir! look, they swim still in charity as a Sacrifice for our deliverance, if't be possible save 'em; the Youth strikes the Wa∣ters with unskilful Oars: O save, save the Innocent.

Be at peace, Madam, if it be in man I'll save 'em.

What do you mean?

To leap in.

'Tis desperate.

'Tis honest, nay 'tis honourable; and when can a young man dy better, or hope to have his end waited on with braver Mourners? Thou seest I have hunted from danger to danger all my life but to finde a name, or one to own me, and cannot compass it; therefore to chuse I'll leap into this danger; for from this glo∣rious end I may in story force one; and therefore leave to counsel, and leap in with me; and let us through this as a thousand other dangers together labour; then if I faint, Hipparchus may be by; and if Hipparchus faint, Am not I there? Farewell, if thou wilt not follow, Farewell for ever.

He's gone, Pausanes, Friend, steer thy Course to yonder fire, there I'll meet thee, and if't be possible, assist thy brave reso∣lution.

Ye Gods! What strange kinde of men are these?
