- # Pericles Prince of Tyre.
And what may make him blush in being known,
Heels stop the course by which it might be known,
With hostile forces heels ore-spread the land,
And with the stint of warre will looke so huge,
Amazement shall dribe courage from the state,
Our men be vanquish ere they doe resist,
And subjects punish that nere thought offence,
Which care of them, not pittie of my selfe,
Who once no more but as the tops of trees,
Which fence the rootes they grow by and defend them,
Makes both my bodie pine, and soule to languish,
And punish that before that he would punish.
## Enter all the Lords to Pericles.
1. Lord. Joy and all comfort in your sacred brett.
2. Lord. And keepe your mind till you returne to vs peacefull and comfortable.
**Hels.** Peace, peace, and glue experience tongue,
They doe abuse the King that flatter him,
For flatterie is the bellowes blowes vp sinne,
The thing the which is flattered, but a sparke,
To which that sparke giues heate, and stronger
Glowing, whereas reproofe obedient and in order,
Fits kings as they are men, for they may erre,
When figuier sooth here does proclaime peace,
He flatters you, makes warre vpon your life.
Prince paadon me, or strike me if you please,
I cannot be much lower then my knees.
**Per.** All leave vs else: but let your cares ore-looke,
What shipping, and what ladings in our hauen,
And then returne to vs, Hellicans thou hast,
Mooude vs, what scest thou in our lookes?
**Hels.** An angrie brow, dread Lord.
**Per.** If there be such a dart in Princes frowns,
How durst thy tongue moue anger to our face?
**Hels.** How dares the plants looke vp to heaven,
From
I. ii. 22—55
