CORNELIUS. Valdes, first let him know the words of art; And fetch the treasure of all foreign wrecks, And more frequented for this mystery And then wilt thou be perfecter than I. We'll canvass every quiddity thereof; VALDES. Then haste thee to some solitary grove, Than heretofore the Delphian oracle. The Hebrew Psalter, and New Testament; FAUSTUS. Then come and dine with me, and, after meat, And whatsoever else is requisite VALDES. First I'll instruct thee in the rudiments, Come, shew me some demonstrations magical, Ay, all the wealth that our forefathers hid And have these joys in full possession. FAUSTUS. Nothing, Cornelius. O, this cheers my soul! We will inform thee ere our conference cease. This night I'll conjure, though I die therefore. And bear wise Bacon's and Albertus'[42] works, [Exeunt.] For, ere I sleep, I'll try what I can do: The spirits tell me they can dry the sea, Within the massy entrails of the earth: And then, all other ceremonies learn'd, Then doubt not, Faustus, but to be renowm'd,[41] Faustus may try his cunning[43] by himself. That I may conjure in some lusty grove, Then tell me, Faustus, what shall we three want?
