Querer por solo Querer: To Love only to Love.
THE SECOND ACT.
After the foregoing Song, loud Musick, and let Claridiana descend alone, by a pair of stairs on the right hand, and let it be quite another Scene.
Cla.
IN what a War, Father unjust,
Hast thou plung'd me? for what cause
Didst thou confine my choice to Laws
So Heterogeneal to my gust?
What satisfaction to thy dust
Can it be, I so should wed?
Who put that fancy in thine head?
That I should not be capabel
To chuse for my own self, as well,
As thou for me, after thou'rt dead?
