Efforts to seduce _Zeokinizul_, she promised herself, that at the next
Meeting she should beat down all Resistance, and allure the King to
gratify her Desires. _Kelirieu_ soon brought it about, for the King
seeing nothing dangerous to his Freedom in _Liamil_, was easily
prevailed upon by the Entreaties of his Confident, to admit of another
Visit from her. Accordingly he sent her a Message to come in the Evening
to a certain Chamber in the Palace. It is easy to conceive how welcome

favoured than prejudiced _Liamil_, as her Wit was to kindle the first
Desires in _Zeokinizul_. Their Conversation must however, remain a
Secret, as neither of them has reveal'd it to any one. What is certain,
and also more important, is, that _Liamil_ so charm'd the King by her
lively Flights of Wit, heightened by an expressive Air, that he heard

This first Step, at once put an End to all the King's Remorse and
Disquietude. He repeated several Times the Pleasure which his
experienced Mistress enhanced in such a Manner as his devout Consort was
a Stranger to, and at last left this fatal Chamber in such a Temper as
_Jeflur_ and _Kelirieu_ had been contriving; that is, passionately in
Love. Their Meetings were for some Times a Secret, but Passion soon grew
too vehement to be concealed. It became the common Talk of the
Courtiers, and at last it reached the Queen's Ear. But she, instead of
endeavouring to reclaim her Spouse by an endearing Carriage, and the
Ascendency which she had over him, gave herself up to a fruitless
