The Works of Christopher Marlowe

Dr. Faustus (B Text)


Act: 3 Scene: 3
You princely legions of infernal rule,
How am I vexed by these villains charms?
From Constantinople have they brought me now,
Only for pleasure of these damned slaves.
To purge the rashness of this cursed deed,
First, be thou turned to this ugly shape,
For apish deeds transformed to an ape.
And so thou shalt: be thou transformed to a dog, and
carry him upon thy back. Away, be gone.
Now with the flames of ever-burning fire,
I'll wing myself and forth-with fly amain
Unto my Faustus to the great Turk's court. Exit.
