The Works of Christopher Marlowe

Dr. Faustus (B Text)


Act: 1 Scene: 2
I wonder what's become of Faustus that was wont
To make our schools ring, with sic probo.Enter Wagner.
How now, sirrah! Where's thy master?
O Faustus, then I fear it which I have long suspected:
That thou art fallen into that damned art
For which they two are infamous through the world.
I fear me, nothing will reclaim him now.

Act: 5 Scene: 1
Master Doctor Faustus, since our conference about
fair ladies, which was the beautifullest in all the world, we
have determined with ourselves that Helen of Greece was
the admirablest lady that ever lived. Therefore, Master Doctor, if
you will do us so much favor as to let us see that peerless
dame of Greece, whom all the world admires for majesty, we
should think ourselves much beholding unto you.
Now we have seen the pride of nature's work,
We'll take our leaves, and for this blessed sight
Happy and blest be Faustus evermore. Exeunt Scholars.

Act: 5 Scene: 2
Now worthy Faustus, me thinks your looks are changed.
O my dearFaustus, what imports this fear?
Who, Faustus?
O, God forbid.
Why did not Faustus tell us of this before, that divines
might have prayed for thee?
Tempt not God, sweet friend, but let us into the next
room, and pray for him.
Faustus, farewell. Exeunt Scholars.

Act: 5 Scene: 3
Come ,gentlemen, let us go visit Faustus,
For such a dreadful night was never seen,
Since first the world's creation did begin.
Such fearful shrieks and cries were never heard.
Pray heaven the Doctor have escaped the danger.
