The REVELS follow.

Which ended, the fleet is discovered, while the three cornets play.

Johp. 'Tis time, your eyes should be refresh'd at length

With something new, a part of Neptune's strength,
See yond', his fleet, ready to go or come,
Or fetch the riches of the Ocean home,
So to secure him, both in peace and wars,
Till not one ship alone, but all be stars.

Then the last

SONG.

Pro. Although we wish the glory still might last
Of such a night, and for the causes past :
Yet now, great lord of waters, and of isles,
Give Proteus leave to turn unto his wiles.
Por. And whilst young Albion doth thy labours ease,
Dispatch Portunus to the ports.

Sar.

And Saron to the seas, To meet old Nereus, with his fifty girls, From aged Indus laden home with pearls, And orient gums, to burn unto thy name. Cho. And may thy subjects' hearts be all on flame, Whilst thou dost keep the earth in firm estate, And 'mongst the winds dost suffer no debate; But both at sea, and land, our powers increase, With health, and all the golden gifts of peace.

LOVE'S TRIUMPH THROUGH

CALLIPOLIS.

PERFORMED IN A MASQUE AT COURT, 1630. By HIS MAJESTY, WITH THE LORDS AND

GENTLEMEN ASSISTING.

The Inventors, BEN JONSON; INIGO JONES.

In this, which was the Queen's Masque, the King was a performer; in that which follows, (the King's Masque,) she returned the compliment. It does not appear that either Love's Triumph, or Chloridia, which follows it, was given to the press by Jonson: the latter is not dated, but was printed for the same bookseller, Thomas Walkley, as the former.

LOVE'S TRIUMPH.

TO MAKE THE SPECTATORS UNDERSTANDERS.

HEREAS, all Representations, especially those of this nature in court, public spectacles, either have been, or ought to be, the mirrors of man's life, whose ends, for the excellence of their exhibitors (as being the donatives of great princes to their people) ought always to carry a mixture of profit with them, no less than delight; we, the inventors, being commanded from the KING to think on something worthy of his majesty's putting in act, with a selected company of his lords and gentlemen, called to the assistance; for the honour of his court, and the dignity of that heroic love, and regal respect born by him to his unmatchable lady and spouse, the queen's majesty, after some debate of cogitation with ourselves, resolved on this following argument.

First, that a person, boni ominis, of a good character, as Euphemus, sent down from heaven to Callipolis, which is understood the city of Beauty or Goodness, should come in; and, finding her majesty there enthroned, declare unto her, that Love, who was wont to be respected as a special deity in court,
