continent to Spain； And both contributary to my crown： The Emperor shall
not live but by my leave； Nor any potentate of Germany。 Now that I have
obtain'd what I desir'd； I'll live in speculation of this art； Till
Mephistophilis return again。 ＇Exit。＇
Enter WAGNER and CLOWN。
WAGNER。 Come hither； sirrah boy。
CLOWN。 Boy！ O； disgrace to my person！ zounds； boy in your face！
You have seen many boys with beards； I am sure。
WAGNER。 Sirrah； hast thou no comings in？
CLOWN。 Yes； and goings out too； you may see； sir。
WAGNER。 Alas； poor slave！ see how poverty jests in his nakedness！ I
know the villain's out of service； and so hungry； that I know he would give
his soul to the devil for a shoulder of mutton； though it were blood…raw。
CLOWN。 Not so neither： I had need to have it well roasted； and
good sauce to it； if I pay so dear； I can tell you。
WAGNER。 Sirrah； wilt thou be my man； and wait on me； and I will
make thee go like Qui mihi discipulus？
CLOWN。 What； in verse？
WAGNER。 No； slave； in beaten silk and staves…acre。
CLOWN。 Staves…acre！ that's good to kill vermin： then； belike； if I
serve you； I shall be lousy。
WAGNER。 Why； so thou shalt be； whether thou dost it or no； for；
sirrah； if thou dost not presently bind thyself to me for seven years； I'll
turn all the lice about thee into familiars； and make them tear thee in
pieces。
CLOWN。 Nay； sir； you may save yourself a labour； for they are
as familiar with me as if they paid for their meat and drink； I can tell you。
WAGNER。 Well； sirrah； leave your jesting； and take these guilders。
＇Gives money。＇

CLOWN。 Yes； marry； sir； and I thank you too。
WAGNER。 So； now thou art to be at an hour's warning； whensoever
and wheresoever the devil shall fetch thee。
CLOWN。 Here； take your guilders again； I'll none of 'em。
WAGNER。 Not I； thou art pressed： prepare thyself； or I will
presently raise up two devils to carry thee away。Banio！ Belcher！
CLOWN。 Belcher！ an Belcher come here； I'll belch him： I am not
afraid of a devil。
Enter two DEVILS。
WAGNER。 How now； sir！ will you serve me now？
CLOWN。 Ay； good Wagner； take away the devil＇s＇； then。
WAGNER。 Spirits； away！ ＇Exeunt DEVILS。＇ Now； sirrah； follow me。
CLOWN。 I will； sir： but hark you； master； will you teach me this
conjuring occupation？
WAGNER。 Ay； sirrah； I'll teach thee to turn thyself to a dog； or a cat；
or a mouse； or a rat； or any thing。
CLOWN。 A dog； or a cat； or a mouse； or a rat！ O； brave； Wagner！
WAGNER。 Villain； call me Master Wagner； and see that you walk
attentively； and let your right eye be always diametrally fixed upon my left
heel； that thou mayst quasi vestigiis nostris insistere。
CLOWN。 Well； sir； I warrant you。 ＇Exeunt。＇
FAUSTUS discovered in his study。
FAUSTUS。 Now； Faustus； Must thou needs be damn'd； canst thou not
be sav'd。 What boots it； then； to think on God or heaven？ Away with such
vain fancies； and despair； Despair in God； and trust in Belzebub： Now； go
not backward； Faustus； be resolute： Why waver'st thou？ O；
something soundeth in mine ear； 〃Abjure this magic； turn to God again！〃
Why； he loves thee not； The god thou serv'st is thine own appetite；
Wherein is fix'd the love of Belzebub： To him I'll build an altar and a
church； And offer lukewarm blood of new…born babes。
Enter GOOD ANGEL and EVIL ANGEL。
EVIL ANGEL。 Go forward； Faustus； in that famous art。
GOOD ANGEL。 Sweet Faustus； leave that execrable art。
FAUSTUS。 Contrition； prayer； repentancewhat of these？

GOOD ANGEL。 O； they are means to bring thee unto heaven！
EVIL ANGEL。 Rather illusions； fruits of lunacy； That make men
foolish that do use them most。
GOOD ANGEL。 Sweet Faustus； think of heaven and heavenly things。
EVIL ANGEL。 No； Faustus； think of honour and of wealth。 ＇Exeunt
ANGELS。＇
FAUSTUS。 Wealth！ Why； the signiory of Embden shall be mine。 When
Mephistophilis shall stand by me； What power can hurt me？ Faustus；
thou art safe： Cast no more doubts。Mephistophilis； come； And bring glad
tidings from great Lucifer； Is't not midnight？come Mephistophilis； And
bring glad tidings from great Lucifer； Is't not midnight？come
Mephistophilis； Veni； veni； Mephistophile！
Enter MEPHISTOPHILIS。
Now tell me what saith Lucifer； thy lord？
MEPHIST。 That I shall wait on Faustus whilst he lives； So he will buy
my service with his soul。
FAUSTUS。 Already Faustus hath hazarded that for thee。
MEPHIST。 But now thou must bequeath it solemnly； And write a deed
of gift with thine own blood； For that security craves Lucifer。 If thou deny
it； I must back to hell。
FAUSTUS。 Stay； Mephistophilis； and tell me； what good will my soul
do thy lord？
MEPHIST。 Enlarge his kingdom。
FAUSTUS。 Is that the reason why he tempts us thus？
MEPHIST。 Solamen miseris socios habuisse doloris。
FAUSTUS。 Why； have you any pain that torture others？
MEPHIST。 As great as have the human souls of men。 But； tell me；
Faustus； shall I have thy soul？ And I will be thy slave； and wait on thee；
And give thee more than thou hast wit to ask。
FAUSTUS。 Ay； Mephistophilis； I'll give it thee。
MEPHIST。 Then； Faustus； stab thine arm courageously； And bind
thy soul； that at some certain day Great Lucifer may claim it as his own；
And then be thou as great as Lucifer。
FAUSTUS。 ＇Stabbing his arm＇ Lo； Mephistophilis； for love of thee；

Faustus hath cut his arm； and with his proper blood Assures his soul to be
great Lucifer's； Chief lord and regent of perpetual night！ View here this
blood that trickles from mine arm； And let it be propitious for my
wish。
MEPHIST。 But； Faustus； Write it in manner of a deed of gift。
FAUSTUS。 ＇Writing＇ Ay； so I do。 But； Mephistophilis； My blood
congeals； and I can write no more。
MEPHIST。 I'll fetch thee fire to dissolve it straight。 ＇Exit。＇
FAUSTUS。 What might the staying of my blood portend？ Is it
unwilling I should write this bill？ Why streams it not； that I may write
afresh？ FAUSTUS GIVES TO THEE HIS SOUL： O； there it stay'd！
Why shouldst thou not？ is not thy soul thine own？ Then write again；
FAUSTUS GIVES TO THEE HIS SOUL。
Re…enter MEPHISTOPHILIS with the chafer of fire。
MEPHIST。 See； Faustus； here is fire； set it on。
FAUSTUS。 So； now the blood begins to clear again； Now will I make
an end immediately。 ＇Writes。＇
MEPHIST。 What will not I do to obtain his soul？ ＇Aside。＇
FAUSTUS。 Consummatum est； this bill is ended； And Faustus hath
bequeath'd his soul to Lucifer。 But what is this inscription on mine arm？
Homo； fuge： whither should I fly？ If unto God； he'll throw me
down to hell。 My senses are deceiv'd； here's nothing writ： O； yes； I see it
plain； even here is writ； Homo； fuge： yet shall not Faustus fly。
MEPHIST。 I'll fetch him somewhat to delight his mind。 ＇Aside； and
then exit。＇
Enter DEVILS； giving crowns and rich apparel to FAUSTUS。 They
dance； and then depart。
Re…enter MEPHISTOPHILIS。
FAUSTUS。 What means this show？ speak； Mephistophilis。
MEPHIST。 Nothing； Faustus； but to delight thy mind； And let thee see
what magic can perform。
FAUSTUS。 But may I raise such spirits when I please？
MEPHIST。 Ay； Faustus； and do greater things than these。
FAUSTUS。 Then； Mephistophilis； receive this scroll； A deed of

gift of body and of soul： But yet conditionally that thou perform All
covenants and articles between us both！
MEPHIST。 Faustus； I swear by hell and Lucifer To effect all promises
between us both！
FAUSTUS。 Then hear me read it； Mephistophilis。 ＇Reads。＇ ON
THESE CONDITIONS FOLLOWING。 FIRST； THAT FAUSTUS MAY
BE A SPIRIT IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE。 SECONDLY； THAT
MEPHISTOPHILIS SHALL BE HIS SERVANT； AND BE BY HIM
COMMANDED。 THIRDLY； THAT MEPHISTOPHILIS SHALL DO
FOR HIM； AND BRING HIM WHATSOEVER HE DESIRES。
FOURTHLY； THAT HE SHALL BE IN HIS CHAMBER OR HOUSE
INVISIBLE。 LASTLY； THAT HE SHALL A
