Party.Pursue, pursue.
[Flor. crosses the Stage following the Pursuit
Arcalaus enters fighting, and retreating before Amadis.
Arcab.Forbear, rash Mortal, give thy Frenzy o'er,
For know thou tempt'st a more than mortal Pow'r.
Amad.Think not my Sword shall give the least Reprieve,
Twere Cruelty to let such Monsters live.
Florestan re-enters retreating before another Party, is
seiz'd, disarm'd, and carry'd off.
Arcal.Yet pause, and be advis'd; avoid thy Fate;
Without thy Life, my Vengeance is compleat:
Behold thy Friend born to eternal Chains,
Remember Ardan now, and count thy Gains.
Amad.Like Ardan's be thy Fate, unpity'd fall.
Thus I'll at once revenge, and free 'em all.
Fight again, Arcalaus still retreating 'till off the Stage.
Instruments of Horror are heard under Ground, and in the
Air. Monsters and Damons rise from under the Stage,
whilst others fly down from above, crossing to and fro in
confusion: Clashing of Swords behind the Scenes: Thunder
and Lightning, during which Time the Stage is darken'd.
On the sudden a Flourish of all the Musick succeeds, the
Sky clears, and the Scene changes to a pleasant Prospect:
Amadis appears leaning on his Sword, surrounded by Shepherds
and Shepherdesses, who with Songs, Musick and Dances
perform the following Enchantment.
