The Maske concluding with a stately measure, of the Gods and Planets, Cupid (they all standing about him bending) the Epilogue thus concludes.

Now royall Princes let me turne to you, Daigne from loves mouth to take this nights adieu. Thinke all these Planets that on earth here move, (Shadowes of these celestiall ones above) Breath on you their best influences: Vulcan, Hee Shall henceforth take charge of your Armorie. Iuno the marriage Queene, shall blesse your bed, The Sunne shall take the bright beames from his head, To increase your glorious luster, and the Moone Attend on you, to make your midnight noone. Cores with plenty shall in rich your store, And Mercury shall flie from shore to shore Vpon your errands: prove your happy ranger, Homebred to espy, and foresee forraigne danger. Venus with sweets, and I, with love will charme you, And after all these Jove with power shall arme you. I'have kept you waking long: good night, 'tis late. Many such birth-dayes may you celebrate.
