The Works of Christopher Marlowe

Dido


Act: 2 Scene: 1
I heare Aeneas voyce, but see him not,
For none of these can be our Generall.
He names Aeneas, let us kisse his feete.
Blest be the time I see Achates face.
Lovely Aeneas, these are Carthage walles,
And here Queene Dido weares th'imperiall Crowne,
Who for Troyes sake hath entertaind us all,
And clad us in these wealthie robes we weare.
Oft hath she askt us under whom we serv'd,
And when we told her she would weepe for griefe,
Thinking the sea had swallowed up thy ships,
And now she sees thee how will she rejoyce?
Looke where she comes: Aeneas view her well.
Renowmed Dido, tis our Generall:
Warlike Aeneas.
