Scene + 

V + 

Another part of the same, more remote from Thebes. + 

Enter the Queens with the hearses of their Knights, in a funeral solemnity, etc. + 

Song. + 

Urns and odours bring away! + 

Vapours, sighs, darken the day! + 

Our dole more deadly looks than dying; + 

Balms, and gums, and heavy cheers, + 

Sacred vials fill’d with tears, + 

And clamours through the wild air flying! + 

Come, all sad and solemn shows, + 

That are quick-ey’d pleasure’s foes! + 

We convent naught else but woes: + 

We convent, etc. + 

Third Queen + 

This funeral path brings to your household’s grave: + 

Joy seize on you again! Peace sleep with him! + 

Second Queen + 

And this to yours. + 

First Queen + 

Yours this way. Heavens lend + 

A thousand differing ways to one sure end. + 

Third Queen + 

This world’s a city full of straying streets, + 

And death’s the market-place, where each one meets. Exeunt severally. + 
