The Works of Christopher Marlowe

Dr. Faustus (B Text)


Act: 4 Scene: 7
Thanks Master Doctor, for these pleasant sights.
Nor know I how sufficiently to recompense your great de-
serts in erecting that enchanted castle in the air, the
sight whereof so delighted me,
as nothing in the world could please me more.
This makes me wonder more than all the rest, that
at this time of the year, when every tree is barren of his
fruit, from whence you had these ripe grapes.
What rude disturbers have we at the gate ?
Go, pacify their fury. Set it ope,
And then demand of them what they would have.
What would they have?
Will you, sir? Commit the rascals.
Do as thou wilt, Faustus. I give thee leave.
With all my heart, kind Doctor, please thyself,
Our servants, and our courts at thy command.
O horrible! Had the Doctor three legs?
So are we madam, which we will recompense
With all the love and kindness that we may.
His artful sport drives all sad thoughts away. Exeunt.
