JAQUES DE BOYS.  Let me have audience for a word or two.  I am the second son of old Sir Rowland,  That bring these tidings to this fair assembly.  Duke Frederick, hearing how that every day  Men of great worth resorted to this forest,  Address'd a mighty power; which were on foot,  In his own conduct, purposely to take  His brother here, and put him to the sword;  And to the skirts of this wild wood he came,  Where, meeting with an old religious man,  After some question with him, was converted  Both from his enterprise and from the world;  His crown bequeathing to his banish'd brother,  And all their lands restor'd to them again  That were with him exil'd. This to be true  I do engage my life.
