Many people play lebensohl in the south seat with 3♥ showing 4 spades GF, it varies from pair to pair whether direct or via 2n is with or without a heart stop.
4♠ should be weaker than 3♠ here as you are in a GF auction.
Since 2♥ wasn't raised, partner has length in hearts and hasn't bid 2N so you should expect this sort of hand, except that I would probably pass with the N hand leading to 2♥-P-P-X-P-P-P in all probablility for 500.
I would respect partner's 4♠ and pass despite there being hands that will make slam.
