The Works of Christopher Marlowe

Tamburlaine Part 1


Act: 4 Scene: 1
So might your highnesse, had you time to sore
Your fighting men, and raise your royall hoste.
But Tamburlaine, byexpedition
Advantage takes of your unreadinesse.

Act: 4 Scene: 3
Great Emperours of Egypt and Arabia ,
The number of your hostes united is,
A hundred and fifty thousand horse,
Two hundred thousand foot, brave men at armes,
Couragious and full of hardinesse:
As frolike as the hunters in the chace
Of savage beastes amid the desert woods.
