Act V, Scene iii
|
|  Enter SCHOLARS.<264> | |
|
|
| | FIRST SCHOLAR. Come, gentlemen, let us go visit Faustus, | |
| | For such a dreadful night was never seen; | |
| | Since first the world's creation did begin, | |
| | Such fearful shrieks and cries were never heard: | |
| | Pray heaven the doctor have escap'd the danger. | |
|
|
| | SECOND SCHOLAR.: | |
| | O, help us, heaven!<265> see, here are Faustus' limbs, | |
| | All torn asunder by the hand of death! | |
|
|
| | THIRD SCHOLAR.: | |
| | The devils whom Faustus serv'd have<266> torn him thus; | |
| | For, twixt the hours of twelve and one, methought, | |
| | I heard him shriek and call aloud for help; | |
| | At which self<267> time the house seem'd all on fire | |
| | With dreadful horror of these damned fiends. | |
|
|
| | SECOND SCHOLAR. Well, gentlemen, though Faustus' end be such | |
| | As every Christian heart laments to think on, | |
| | Yet, for he was a scholar once admir'd | |
| | For wondrous knowledge in our German schools, | |
| | We'll give his mangled limbs due burial; | |
| | And all the students, cloth'd in mourning black, | |
| | Shall wait upon his heavy funeral. | |
| |
[Exeunt.]
