TEMPE
RESTOR'D
The
Argument
.
CIrce
by
her
alurements
inamored
a
young
Gent.
on
her
person
,
who
a
while
lived
with
her
in
all
sensuall
delights
vntill
vpon
some
iealosie
conceived
,
shee
gaue
him
to
drinke
of
an
inchanted
Cup
,
and
touching
him
with
her
golden
wand
transformd
him
into
a
Lyon
.
After
some
time
shee
remembring
her
former
loue
,
retransformed
him
into
his
former
shape
.
Which
he
reasuming
tooke
the
first
occasion
by
flight
to
quitt
the
place
and
comming
into
the
presence
of
his
Maiestie
,
whose
sight
frees
him
from
all
feare
he
relates
the
story
of
his
fortune
.
When
Circe
had
notice
of
her
Lovers
escape
it
,
put
her
into
a
furious
anger
and
then
into
a
lamentation
or
loue
passion
.
But
being
consolated
by
her
Nymphes
;
shee
commands
that
all
such
delights
be
prepared
as
may
sweeten
her
sorow
:
and
presently
all
the
voluntary
beasts
vnder
her
subiection
are
introduced
to
make
her
sport
.
After
which
the
way
being
first
prepared
by
Harmony
,
and
the
Influences
;
divine
Beautie
accompanied
with
foureteene
stars
of
a
happy
constellation
,
descends
to
the
Musicke
of
the
Spheares
and
ioyneth
with
heroicke
vertue
,
where
in
presence
of
loue
&
Cupid
,
Circe
knowing
the
designe
of
the
destinies
on
this
glorious
Enterview
,
voluntarily
delivers
her
golden
rod
to
MINERVA
.
So
all
the
inchantments
being
dissolued
.
TEMPE
which
for
a
time
had
beene
possest
by
the
voluntary
beasts
of
CIRCES
Court
;
is
restored
to
the
true
followers
of
the
MVSES
.
The
description
of
the
Sceane
.
IN
the
vpper
part
of
the
border
serving
for
ornament
to
the
SCENE
,
was
painted
a
faire
compartment
of
scrowles
and
quadratures
,
in
which
was
written
TEMPE
RESTAVRATVM
.
On
each
side
of
this
,
lay
a
figure
bigger
then
the
life
,
the
one
a
woman
with
wings
on
her
head
like
MERCVRIE
and
a
pen
in
her
hand
:
the
other
a
man
looking
downe
in
a
booke
lying
open
before
him
,
and
a
torch
lighted
in
his
hand
:
that
figur'd
Invention
;
this
Knowledge
.
Neere
to
these
were
children
holding
ougly
Maskes
before
their
faces
in
action
as
if
they
would
afright
them
;
others
riding
on
tame
beasts
and
some
blowing
such
wrethen
Trumps
as
make
confused
noyse
,
in
the
corners
sat
other
Children
hardning
of
darts
in
Lamps
.
But
Invention
&
Knowledge
seeme
not
to
be
diverted
from
their
study
by
these
childish
bugbears
.
In
the
midst
of
the
two
sides
of
this
border
in
short
neeces
sat
two
ougly
figures
,
the
one
a
woman
with
a
forked
tongue
,
and
snaky
lockes
,
and
the
vnder
part
of
a
Satyre
,
this
Hagge
held
in
her
hand
a
smiling
vizard
crown'd
with
Roses
,
and
was
figured
for
Envie
,
vnder
the
Maske
of
friendship
.
On
the
other
side
was
sitting
as
horrid
a
man
Satyre
with
a
wreath
of
poppy
on
his
head
,
and
a
Frog
sitting
on
the
fore
part
thereof
;
and
aboue
a
Batt
flying
,
this
represented
curions
Ignorance
.
The
rest
of
the
Border
was
fild
vp
with
severall
fancies
,
which
lest
I
should
be
too
long
in
the
description
of
the
frame
,
I
will
goe
to
the
picture
it selfe
,
and
indeed
these
showes
are
nothing
else
but
pictures
with
Light
and
Motion
.
A
Curtaine
being
drawne
vp
,
the
Lightsome
Scene
appear'd
,
shewing
a
delicious
place
by
nature
and
art
;
where
in
a
Valley
inviron'd
with
Hils
a farre
off
was
seated
,
a
prospect
of
curious
Arbours
of
various
formes
.
The
first
order
of
marble
Pillasters
.
Betweene
which
were
neeces
of
rocke
worke
and
Statues
;
some
spurting
water
received
into
vazes
beneath
them
,
and
others
standing
on
Pedestals
.
On
the
returnes
of
these
Pillasters
run
slender
Cornishments
.
From
which
was
raised
a
second
order
of
gratious
termes
with
womens
faces
which
beare
vp
the
ornaments
.
Vnder
this
to
a
leaning
height
was
a
Ballestrata
inricht
.
All
this
second
story
seem'd
of
silver
worke
mixt
with
fresh
Verdures
which
on
the
tops
of
these
arbours
covered
some
of
the
returnes
,
in
the
forme
of
tipes
with
tender
branches
dangling
downe
:
others
were
cover'd
flatt
and
had
flower
pots
of
gold
for
finishing
:
behind
these
appear'd
the
tops
of
slender
trees
,
whose
leaues
seem'de
to
moue
with
a
gentle
breath
comming
from
the
farre
off
Hills
.
Out
of
this
pleasant
place
comes
in
hast
,
a
yong
Gentleman
,
looking
often
backe
,
as
if
he
feared
a
pursuit
;
and
beeing
come
into
the
midst
of
the
roome
,
looking
still
distractedly
about
him
,
hee
wipes
his
face
with
an
handkercher
,
and
then
advanceth
towards
the
State
,
and
speakes
.
The
fugitive
Favourite
.
Was
I
a
Lyon
!
that
am
now
afraid
!
I
feare
no
danger
;
nor
I
feare
no
Death
;
But
to
be
Retransform'd
,
into
a
Beast
:
Which
while
I
was
,
although
I
must
confesse
,
I
was
the
Brauest
:
What
could
shee
doe
lesse
,
That
saw
me
Subiect
,
to
no
base
desire
:
Yet
was
there
in
me
,
a
Promethean
fire
,
That
made
me
covet
to
be
man
againe
,
Govern'd
by
Reason
,
and
not
rul'd
by
Sense
.
Therefore
I
shunne
this
place
of
Residence
,
And
flye
to
Vertue
:
in
whose
awfull
sight
,
She
dares
not
come
,
but
in
a
Maske
,
and
crouch
,
As
low
as
I
did
,
for
my
liberty
.
Her
Bowre
is
pleasant
,
and
her
Palace
Rich
;
Her
Fare
Delicious
;
and
her
Language
fine
;
But
shall
the
Soule
,
the
Minion
of
the
Gods
,
Stoope
to
her
Vassalls
?
Or
stand
by
and
sterue
,
While
they
sit
swelling
,
in
her
Chayre
of
State
?
T
is
not
her
Rod
,
her
Philters
,
nor
her
Herbes
,
(
Though
strong
in
Magicke
)
that
can
bound
mens
minds
;
And
make
them
Prisoners
,
where
there
is
no
wall
.
It
is
consent
that
makes
a
perfect
Slaue
:
And
Sloth
that
binds
us
to
Lusts
easie
Trades
,
Wherein
we
serue
out
our
youths
Prentiship
,
Thinking
at
last
,
Loue
should
enfranchize
vs
,
Whome
we
haue
neuer
,
either
seru'd
or
knowne
:
He
finds
no
helpe
,
that
vses
not
his
owne
.
The
further
part
of
the
Sceane
opening
,
there
appeares
seated
on
the
side
of
a
fruitfull
hill

a
sumptuous
Palace

with

grounds
;
the
upper
part
environ'd
with
walles
of
Marble
,
alongst
which

Cypresse

From
the

,
Circe
attended
by
the
Nayades
,
and
Dryades
comes
foorth
in
fury
,
for

of
the
young

her
Lover
;
and
hauing
traverst
the
stage
with
an
angry
looke

sings

Dissembling

now
I
see

Of

T'
was

,
thou
hadst

For
thou
hast
made
a
cruell
prey
of

And

And
he

gone
(

is
stolne
from

And
this
poore
Casket

Without

Haue

O
most
inhumane

Bring

And

For

Chorus
.
The
Musick
that
yee
heare
,
is
dull
,
But
that
ye
see
,
is
sweete
indeed
:
In
euery
Part
exact
,
and
full
,
From
whence
there
doth
an
Ayre
proceed
,
On
which
th'
Intelligences
feed
,
Where
faire
and
good
,
inseparably
conioynd
,
Create
a
Cupid
,
that
is
neuer
blind
.
Then
the
Scene
is
changed
into
an
orientall
skye
,
such
as
appeares
at
the
Sunne
rising
,
and
a farre
off
a
Landscipt
and
a
calme
Sea
which
did
terminate
the
Horizon
;
in
the
hither
part
was
a
Heaven
with
a
Citadell
,
and
opposite
to
that
,
were
broken
grounds
and
craggey
rocks
.
In
the
midst
of
the
ayre
the
eight
Spheares
in
rich
habites
were
seated
on
a
Cloud
,
which
in
a
circular
forme
was
on
each
side
continued
vnto
the
highest
part
of
the
Heaven
,
and
seem'd
to
haue
let
them
downe
as
in
a
Chaine
.
To
the
Musicke
of
these
Spheares
there
appear'd
two
other
Clouds
descending
,
&
in
them
were
discovered
eight
Stars
;
these
being
come
to
the
middle
Region
of
the
skie
,
another
greater
Cloud
came
downe
aboue
them
;
Which
by
little
and
little
descending
,
discovered
other
glistering
Stars
to
the
number
of
sixe
:
and
aboue
all
in
a
Chariot
of
gold-smithes
workes
richly
adorned
with
precious
Iemmes
,
sat
divine
Beauty
,
over
whose
head
,
appear'd
a
brightnesse
,
full
of
small
starres
that
inviron'd
the
top
of
the
Chariot
,
striking
a
light
round
about
it
.
The
eight
Stars
that
first
descended
being
by
this
time
past
the
Spheares
came
forth
,
and
the
Clouds
on
which
they
sat
with
a
swift
morion
returning
vp
againe
,
and
the
other
still
descending
shewed
a
pleasing
contention
betweene
them
as
they
past
.
When
divine
Beauty
and
her
attendants
were
lighted
,
that
great
Cloud
that
bare
them
flyes
vp
againe
,
leaving
the
Chariot
standing
on
the
Earth
.
This
sight
altogether
was
for
the
difficulty
of
the
Ingining
and
number
of
the
persons
the
greatest
that
hath
beene
seene
here
in
our
time
.
For
the
apparitions
of
such
as
came
downe
in
the
ayre
,
and
the
Chorus
standing
beneath
arrived
to
the
number
of
fifty
persons
all
richly
attired
,
shewing
the
magnificence
of
the
court
of
England
.
In
the
description
of
the
severall
habites
of
the
maine
Masques
and
Masquers
and
Chorus
with
all
the
persons
imployd
,
would
make
a
booke
alone
as
big
as
this
,
and
aske
more
time
in
setting
downe
then
can
bee
now
spared
;
onely
thus
much
the
Queenes
Maiesties
was
in
a
garment
of
watchet
Sattine
with
Stars
of
silver
imbrodered
and
imbost
from
the
ground
,
and
on
her
head
a
Crowne
of
Stars
mixt
with
some
small
falls
of
white
Feathers
.
And
the
Ladies
were
in
the
same
manner
.
The
stuffe
was
rich
and
the
forme
Noble
,
and
all
suting
to
the
Magnificence
of
so
great
a
Queene

The

Mr
Laneere
.
Heroicke
Vertue
,
is
that
kind
Of
Beautie
,
that
attracts
the
mind
,
And
men
should
most
implore
.
The
Spheres
.
Ianus
was
happy
that
could
see
,
Two
wayes
at
once
:
And
happier
he
That
round
about
him
kept
Watches
,
that
neuer
slept

Cho:
But
we
most
happy
,
that

,
Two
that
haue
turn'd
this
Age
to
Gold
,
Making
old
Saturns
Reigne
,
In
theirs
,
come
backe
againe

And
since
more
,
th'
obiect
,
then
the
sight
,
Makes
euery
seer
Blest
;
How
are
we
rauisht
with
delight
,
That
see
the
best
.
The
Maskers
dance
their
maine
Dance
,
which
done
,
and
the
Queene
seated
vnder
the
state
by
his
Maiestie
,
the
Scene
is
againe
changed
into
a
shady
wood
,
and
a
new
Heaven
appeares
differing
in
shape
and
colour
from
the
other
.
In
the
midst
of
which
Ioue
sitting
on
an
Eagle
is
seene
hovering
in
the
ayre
with
a
glory
beyond
him
.
And
at
that
instant
Cupid
from
another
part
of
the
Heaven
comes
flying
forth
,
and
hauing
past
the
Scene
,
turnes
soaring
about
like
a
bird
,
and
at
the
same
time
Pallas
,
Circe
and
her
foure
Nymphes
appeare
on
the
Stage
:
the
great
Chorus
consisting
of
fiue
and
thirty
Musitions
standing
below
to
assist
them
.
Cupid
:
It
is
but
Iustice
,
to
torment
a
heart
,
That
tortured
thousands
:
And
my
gentle
reigne
,
So
wrongd
with
acting
of
a
Tyrants
part
,
I
must
Restreyne
,
My
powre
abus'd
;
And
right
my
iniurd
Treyne
.
Iupiter
.
Thou
claim'st
her
Subiects
:
And
I
claime
the
Soyle
,
As
Soueraigne
Lord
:
The
Hecatomes
shee
brings
,
Though
great
Oblations
,
yet
deduc'd
from
Spoyle
,
Are
sordid
Things
:
And
sent
of
Earth
:
Vertue
pure
Incense
brings
.
Circe
:
The
Gods
,
more
freedome
did
allow
,
when
Ioue
turn'd
Io
to
a
Cow
.
Pallas
:
Are
mortall
Creatures
,
growne
so
proud
To
taxe
the
Skye
,
for
euery
Cloud
:
Circe
:
Man-Maide
,
bee
gone
!
Pallas
:
Though
I
could
turne
thee
,
to
a
Stone
I
le
begge
thy
peace
:
Iupiter
:
Deare
Daughter
cease
!
Circe
:
Cease
Dreadfull
Ioue
!
Finding
thy
Drift
,
My
Bounty
,
shall
prevent
thy
Guift
:
This
Machles
Payre
,
I
make
,
my
Heire
:
All
I
possesse
,
I
heere
,
Resigne
,
Thou
hast
thy
And
I
haue
Mine
.
Iupiter
:
Shee
giues
but
what
shee
can
not
keepe
.
Cupid
:
Then
was
the
wound
I
gaue
her
deepe
.
Both
:
T'
was
I
whose
power
none
can
withstand
,
That
open'd
both
her
heart
,
and
hand
.
The
Valediction
.
How
would
they
mourne
,
to
loose
yee
quite
!
That
are
so
loath
,
to
say
,
Goodnight
.
Yet
wee
may
pleade
,
in
our
Excuse
,
Should
you
,
these
Loanes
of
Loue
forsake
The
Gods
themselues
,
such
Sommes
would
take
And
pay
vs
,
vse
.
When
this
was
past
,
the
Eagle
with
love
flew
vp
,
and
Cupid
tooke
his
flight
through
the
Ayre
,
after
which
the
Heauens
close
.
Palas
and
Circe
returnes
into
the
Scene
with
the
Nymphes
,
and
Chorus
;
and
so
concluded
the
last
Intermedium
.
After
which
the
Queene
and
her
Ladies
began
the
Revels
,
with
the
King
and
his
Lords
,
which
continued
all
the
night
.
The
Allegory
.
In
the
young
Gentleman
,
who
Circe
had
first
enamored
on
her
Person
,
and
after
,
through
Iealousie
conceiued
,
Transformed
into
a
Lyon
.
And
againe
remembring
her
former
Love
,
retransform'd
into
his
former
shape
,
is
figured
an
incontinent
man
,
that
striving
with
his
affections
,
is
at
last
by
the
power
of
reason
perswaded
to
flye
from
those
Sensuall
desires
,
which
had
formerly
corrupted
his
Iudgement
.
Circe
here
signifies
desire
in
generall
,
the
which
hath
power
on
all
living
Creatures
,
and
beeing
mixt
of
the
Divine
and
Sensible
,
hath
divers
effects
,
Leading
some
to
Vertue
,
and
others
to
Vice
.
Shee
is
described
as
a
Queene
,
having
in
her
service
,
and
subiection
,
the
Nymphs
,
which
participate
of
Divinity
,
figuring
the
Vertues
,
and
the
bruite
Beasts
,
denoting
the
Vices
.
The
description
of
her
person
,
of
extraordinary
Beauty
,
and
sweetnesse
of
her
voyce
,
shewes
that
desire
is
moved
either
by
sight
or
hearing
,
to
loue
Vertue
,
or
the
contrary
,
and
the
Beautifull
aspect
of
her
inchaunted
Palace
,
glistering
with
gold
,
and
Precious
Ornaments
,
that
desire
cannot
bee
moued
without
apparance
of
Beauty
,
either
true
of
false
.
The
Dryades
,
and
Nayades
,
Nymphes
of
the
Woods
,
and
Waters
,
that
is
to
say
;
the
good
spirits
defused
through
all
the
Vniverse
,
are
servants
to
this
Queene
,
and
liue
with
her
in
all
Liberty
and
pleasure
whose
imployment
is
to
gather
the
most
exquisite
Herbes
,
and
Flowers
of
the
earth
for
the
service
of
their
Mistres
;
Figuring
the
Vertues
and
Sciences
,
by
which
the
desire
of
Mans
Spirits
are
prepared
and
disposed
to
good
,
the
beasts
,
in
part
transformed
,
who
contrary
to
their
Natures
,
make
her
sport
,
represents
vnto
vs
that
Sensuall
desire
makes
men
loose
their
Vertue
and
Valour
,
turning
Parasites
and
Slaues
to
their
Bruitish
affections
.
That
these
Intemperate
Beastes
of
Circes
Court
,
should
for
a
time
possesse
TEMPE
.
The
happie
retreat
of
the
Muses
and
their
followers
,
is
meant
,
the
inchantments
of
vitious
impostures
,
that
by
false
meanes
,
seeke
to
extirpate
the
true
Louers
of
Science
and
Vertue
,
to
whom
of
right
only
that
place
belongs
.
That
divine
Beauty
accompan'ed
with
a
troope
of
Stars
of
a
happy
Constellation
ioyning
with
Heiroicke
vertue
should
dissolue
the
inchantments
,
and
Circe
voluntarily
deliver
her
golden
rod
to
Minerva
,
is
meant
that
a
divine
Beame
comming
from
aboue
,
with
a
good
inclination
,
and
a
perfect
habit
of
vertue
made
,
by
the
Harmony
of
the
Irascible
and
concupiscible
parts
obedient
to
the
rationall
and
highest
part
of
the
soule
.
Making
man
onely
a
mind
vsing
the
body
and
affections
as
instruments
;
which
being
his
true
perfection
,
brings
him
to
all
the
happinesse
which
can
bee
inioyed
heere
below
.
In
Heiroicke
vertue
is
figured
the
Kings
Maiestie
,
who
therein
transcends
as
farre
common
men
,
as
they
are
aboue
Beasts
,
he
truly
being
the
prototipe
to
all
the
Kingdomes
vnder
his
Monarchie
,
of
Religion
,
Iustice
,
and
all
the
Vertues
ioyned
together
.
So
that
Corporeall
Beauty
,
consisting
in
simetry
,
colour
,
and
certaine
vnexpressable
Graces
,
shining
in
the
Queenes
Maiestie
,
may
draw
vs
to
the
contemplation
of
the
Beauty
of
the
soule
,
vnto
which
it
hath
Analogy
.
All
