Now my charms are all overthrown, And what strength I have's mine own, Which is most faint: now, 'tis true, I must be here confined by you, Or sent to Naples. Let me not, Since I have my dukedom got And pardon'd the deceiver, dwell In this bare island by your spell; But release me from my bands (10) With the help of your good hands: Gentle breath of yours my sails
Must fill, or else my project fails, Which was to please. Now I want Spirits to enforce, art to enchant, And my ending is despair, Unless I be relieved by prayer, Which pierces so that it a**aults Mercy itself and frees all faults. As you from crimes would pardon'd be, (20) Let your indulgence set me free.
