The Works of Christopher Marlowe

Tamburlaine Part 1


Act: 3 Scene: 1
Renowmed Emperour, and mighty Generall,
What if you sent the Bassoes of your guard,
To charge him to remaine in Asia
Or els to threaten death and deadly armes,
As from the mouth of mighty Bajazeth.
What thinks your greatnes best to be atchiev'd
In pursuit of the Cities overthrow?

Act: 3 Scene: 3
What meanes the mighty Turkish Emperor
To talk with one so base as Tamburlaine ?
