triumph      through     Persepolis。     ��Exeunt     all   except    TAMBURLAINE�察�

THERIDAMAS�察�TECHELLES�察�and USUMCASANE。�А�

     TAMBURLAINE。 And ride in triumph through Persepolis� �Is it not 

brave   to   be   a   king�察  �Techelles�拭  �Usumcasane   and   Theridamas�察  �Is   it   not 

passing brave to be a king�察�And ride in triumph through Persepolis�拭�

     TECHELLES。 O�察�my lord�察�it is sweet and full of pomp� �

     USUMCASANE。 To be a king is half to be a god。 

     THERIDAMAS。            A   god   is  not  so  glorious    as  a  king�此  �I  think  the 

pleasure they enjoy in heaven�察�Cannot compare with kingly joys in 

earth�察  �To   wear   a   crown   enchas'd   with   pearl   and   gold�察  �Whose   virtues 

carry   with   it   life   and   death�察  �To   ask   and   have�察  �command   and   be   obey'd�察�

When      looks   breed    love�察 �with   looks    to  gain   the  prize�察 �Such    power 

attractive shines in princes' eyes。 

     TAMBURLAINE。 Why�察�say�察�Theridamas�察�wilt thou be a king�拭�

     THERIDAMAS。 Nay�察�though I praise it�察�I can live without it。 

     TAMBURLAINE。 What say my other friends�拭�will you be kings�拭�

     TECHELLES。 I�察�if I could�察�with all my heart�察�my lord。 

     TAMBURLAINE。 Why�察�that's well said�察�Techelles�此�so would I�察�And 

so would you�察�my masters�察�would you not�拭�

     USUMCASANE。 What�察�then�察�my lord�拭�

     TAMBURLAINE。 Why�察�then�察�Casane�察�shall we wish for aught 

The   world   affords   in   greatest   novelty�察  �And   rest   attemptless�察  �faint�察  �and 

destitute�拭�Methinks we should not。 I am strongly mov'd�察�That if I should 

desire   the   Persian   crown�察  �I   could   attain   it   with   a   wondrous   ease�此  �And 

would     not   all   our  soldiers   soon  consent�察  �If  we   should    aim   at  such  a 

dignity�拭�

     THERIDAMAS。 I know they would with our persuasions。 

     TAMBURLAINE。   Why�察  �then�察  �Theridamas�察  �I'll   first   assay   To   get   the 

Persian   kingdom  to   myself�察  �Then   thou   for   Parthia�察  �they  for   Scythia   and 

Media�察�And�察�if I prosper�察�all shall be as sure As if the Turk�察�the Pope�察�Afric�察�

and Greece�察�Came creeping to us with their crowns a´piece。 

     TECHELLES。   Then   shall   we   send   to   this   triumphing   king�察�And   bid 

him battle for his novel crown�拭�

    USUMCASANE。 Nay�察�quickly�察�then�察�before his room be hot。 

     TAMBURLAINE。 'Twill prove a pretty jest�察�in faith�察�my friends。 

     THERIDAMAS。 A jest to charge on twenty thousand men� �I judge the 

purchase more important far。 

     TAMBURLAINE。             Judge    by   thyself�察  �Theridamas�察     �not   me�察   �For 

presently Techelles here shall haste To bid him battle ere he pass too far�察�

And lose more labour than the gain will quite�此�Then shalt thou see 

this     Scythian    Tamburlaine      Make    but   a  jest  to  win  the  Persian 

crown。   Techelles�察  �take   a   thousand   horse   with   thee�察  �And   bid   him   turn 

him back to war with us�察�That only made him king to make us sport�此�

We   will   not   steal   upon   him   cowardly�察  �But   give   him   warning   and 

more     warriors�此   �Haste    thee�察  �Techelles�察   �we   will   follow    thee。   ��Exit 

TECHELLES。�А�What saith Theridamas�拭�

     THERIDAMAS。 Go on�察�for me。 ��Exeunt。�А�

       Enter COSROE�察�MEANDER�察�ORTYGIUS�察�and MENAPHON�察�with 

SOLDIERS。 

     COSROE。 What means this devilish shepherd�察�to aspire With such  a 

giantly presumption�察�To cast up hills against the face of heaven�察�And dare 

the force of angry Jupiter�拭�But�察�as he thrust them underneath the hills�察�And 

press'd   out   fire   from   their   burning   jaws�察  �So   will   I   send   this   monstrous 

slave to hell�察�Where flames shall ever feed upon his soul。 

     MEANDER。 Some powers divine�察�or else infernal�察�mix'd Their angry 

seeds   at   his   conception�察  �For   he   was   never   sprung   of   human   race�察�

Since   with   the   spirit   of   his   fearful   pride�察  �He   dares   so   doubtlessly 

resolve of rule�察�And by profession be ambitious。 

     ORTYGIUS。   What   god�察  �or   fiend�察  �or   spirit   of   the   earth�察  �Or   monster 

turned to a manly shape�察�Or of what mould or mettle he be made�察�What 

star or fate soever govern him�察�Let us put on our meet encountering 

minds�察  �And�察  �in   detesting   such   a   devilish   thief�察  �In   love   of   honour   and 

defence of right�察  �Be arm'd against   the hate   of such a   foe�察�Whether   from 

earth�察�or hell�察�or heaven he grow。 

     COSROE。 Nobly resolv'd�察�my good Ortygius�察�And�察�since we all have 

suck'd   one   wholesome   air�察  �And   with   the   same   proportion   of   elements 

Resolve�察�I hope we are resembled�察�Vowing our loves to equal death 

and life。 Let's cheer our soldiers to encounter him�察�That grievous image of 

ingratitude�察�That fiery thirster after sovereignty�察�And burn him in the fury 

of that flame That none can quench but blood and empery。 Resolve�察�my 

lords and loving soldiers�察�now To save your king and country from decay。 

Then strike up�察�drum�察�and all the stars that make The loathsome circle of 

my     dated   life�察 �Direct   my   weapon     to  his   barbarous    heart�察  �That   thus 

opposeth him against the gods�察�And scorns the powers that govern Persia� �

       Alarms     of    battle   within。    Then     enter    COSROE         wounded�察�

TAMBURLAINE�察�THERIDAMAS�察�TECHELLES�察�USUMCASANE�察�with 

others。 

     COSROE。 Barbarous and bloody Tamburlaine�察�Thus to deprive 

me of my crown and life� �Treacherous and false Theridamas�察�Even at the 

morning   of   my  happy  state�察  �Scarce   being   seated   in   my  royal   throne�察�To 

work     my   downfall    and  untimely    end�   �An   uncouth    pain   torments   my 

grieved soul�察�And death arrests the organ of my voice�察�Who�察�entering at 

the breach thy sword hath made�察�Sacks every vein and artier of my 

heart。 Bloody and insatiate Tamburlaine� �

     TAMBURLAINE。 The thirst of reign and sweetness of a crown�察�That 

caus'd the eldest son of heavenly Ops To thrust his doting father from his 

chair�察�And   place   himself   in   the   empyreal   heaven�察  �Mov'd   me   to   manage 

arms against thy  state。 What better precedent than   mighty Jove�拭  �Nature�察�

that    fram'd   us   of   four   elements     Warring    within    our   breasts    for 

regiment�察      �Doth   teach   us  all  to  have  aspiring   minds�此  �Our   souls�察�

whose faculties can comprehend The wondrous architecture of the world�察�

And     measure     every   wandering     planet's   course�察  �Still  climbing     after 

knowledge infinite�察�And always moving as the restless spheres�察�Will us to 

wear ourselves�察�and never rest�察�Until we reach the ripest fruit of all�察�

That perfect bliss and sole felicity�察�The sweet fruition of an earthly crown。 

     THERIDAMAS。 And that made me to join with Tamburlaine�察�For he 

is gross and like the massy earth That moves not upwards�察�nor by princely 

deeds Doth mean to soar above the highest sort。 

     TECHELLES。 And   that   made   us�察  �the   friends of Tamburlaine�察�To   lift 

our swords against the Persian king。 

    USUMCASANE。             For  as�察 �when    Jove   did  thrust  old   Saturn   down�察�

Neptune and Dis gain'd each of them a crown�察�So do we hope to reign in 

Asia�察�If Tamburlaine be plac'd in Persia。 

     COSROE。 The strangest men that ever nature made� �I know not how 

to take their tyrannies。 My bloodless body waxeth chill and cold�察�And with 

my blood my life slides through my wound�察�My soul begins to take her

flight to hell�察�And summons all my senses to depart�此�The heat and moisture�察�

which   did   feed   each   other�察  �For   want   of   nourishment   to   feed   them   both�察�

Are       dry   and    cold�察  �and   now    doth   ghastly    Death    With    greedy 

talents gripe my bleeding heart�察�And like a harpy tires on my 

life。   Theridamas   and   Tamburlaine�察  �I   die�此  �And   fearful   vengeance   light 

upon   you   both�   。�Dies。TAMBURLAINE   takes   COSROE'S   crown�察  �and 

puts it on his own head。�А�

     TAMBURLAINE。  Not   all the   curses   which the   Furies   breathe 

Shall make me leave so rich a prize as this。 Theridamas�察�Techelles�察�and the 

rest�察�Who think you now is king of Persia�拭�

     ALL。 Tamburlaine� �Tamburlaine� �

     TAMBURLAINE。 Though Mars himself�察�the angry god of arms�察�And 

all   the   earthly   potentates   conspire   To   dispossess   me   of   this   diadem�察�Yet 

will I wear it in despite of them�察�As great commander of this eastern world�察�

If you but say that Tamburlaine shall reign。 

     ALL。 Long live Tamburlaine�察�and reign in Asia� �

gods     had   held   a  parliament�察   �And    all  pronounc'd     me    king   of  Persia。
