- THE RAPE OF LVCRECE
They thinke not but that cucric eye can fee.
The fame difgracc which they theinfclues behold :
And therefore would ihey ftill in darkenefTe be,
To haue their Ynfcenefinnc rcmaine vntold.
For they their guilt with weeping will vnfold,
And graue like water that doth catc in ftcele,
Vppon my cheeks, what hclpclcflc Ihame I feclc.
Here lliee cxclaimes againft repofe and reft,
And bids her eyes hereafter dill be blindc,
Shee wakes her heart by beating on her breft,
A nd bids it leape from thence, where it maie findc
Some purer chefl, to clofe fo pure a minde.
Frantickc with grietc thus breaths fliee forth her
Againft the vnfecne fecrecie of night. (fpitc,
O comfort killing night, image of Hell,
Dim regidcr, and notarie of Ihame,
Blacke ftage for tragedies, and murthers fell,
Vafi: fin-concealing Chaos, nourfe of blame.
Blinde muffled bawd^darke harbcr for defame,
Grim caue of death, whifpring con(pirator,
V Vith clofe-tong'd treafon & the rauiilicr.
II. 750—770
