      MACHIAVEL. Albeit the world think Machiavel is dead, Yet was his soul but flown beyond the Alps; And, now the Guise is dead, is come from France, to view this land, and frolic with his friends. It is thought Marlowe returned to England circa 1598 to some perhaps my name is odious; But such as love me guard me from their tongues, and let them know that I am Machiavel, and weigh not men, and therefore not mens words.

I crave but this. Grace him as he
