��BRAKENBURY reads it�А�BRAKENBURY。 I am�察�in this�察�commanded to 

deliver The noble Duke of Clarence to your hands。 I will not reason what 

is meant hereby�察�Because I will be guiltless from the meaning。 There lies 

the   Duke   asleep�察  �and   there   the   keys。   I'll   to   the   King   and   signify  to   him

That   thus   I   have   resign'd   to   you   my   charge。   FIRST   MURDERER。   You 

may�察�sir�察�'tis a point of wisdom。 Fare you well。 Exeunt BRAKENBURY 

and KEEPER SECOND MURDERER。 What�察�shall I stab him as he sleeps�拭�

FIRST MURDERER。 No�察�he'll say 'twas done cowardly�察�when he wakes。 

SECOND         MURDERER。          Why�察    �he  shall   never   wake     until  the  great 

judgment´day。 FIRST  MURDERER。 Why�察 �then he'll say  we  stabb'd him 

sleeping。 SECOND MURDERER。 The urging of that word judgment hath 

bred a kind of remorse in me。 FIRST MURDERER。 What�察�art thou afraid�拭�

SECOND   MURDERER。   Not   to   kill   him�察  �having   a   warrant�察  �but   to   be 

damn'd for killing him�察�from the which no warrant can defend me。 FIRST 

MURDERER。 I thought thou hadst been resolute。 SECOND MURDERER。 

So   I   am�察  �to   let   him   live。   FIRST  MURDERER。   I'll   back   to   the   Duke   of 

Gloucester and tell him so。 SECOND MURDERER。 Nay�察�I prithee�察�stay a 

little。 I hope this passionate humour of mine will change�察�it was wont to 

hold me but while one tells twenty。 FIRST MURDERER。 How dost thou 

feel   thyself   now�拭  �SECOND   MURDERER。   Faith�察  �some   certain   dregs   of 

conscience      are   yet  within   me。    FIRST    MURDERER。          Remember       our 

reward�察�when the deed's done。 SECOND MURDERER。 Zounds�察�he dies�察�I 

had forgot the reward。 FIRST MURDERER。 Where's thy conscience now�拭�

SECOND   MURDERER。   O�察  �in   the   Duke   of   Gloucester's   purse�   �FIRST 

MURDERER。           When     he  opens    his  purse   to  give   us  our   reward�察  �thy 

conscience   flies   out。   SECOND   MURDERER。   'Tis   no   matter�察  �let   it   go�察�

there's few or none will entertain it。 FIRST MURDERER。 What if it come 

to thee again�拭�SECOND MURDERER。 I'll not meddle with it´it makes a 

man coward�此�a man cannot steal�察�but it accuseth him�察�a man cannot swear�察�

but it checks him�察�a man cannot lie with his neighbour's wife�察�but it detects 

him。 'Tis a blushing shame´ fac'd spirit that mutinies in a man's bosom�察�it 

fills a man full of obstacles�此�it made me once restore a purse of gold that´ 

by   chance   I   found。   It   beggars   any   man   that   keeps   it。   It   is   turn'd   out   of 

towns and cities for a dangerous thing�察�and every man that means to live 

well     endeavours      to  trust   to  himself     and   live   without    it。  FIRST 

MURDERER。 Zounds�察�'tis even now at my elbow�察�persuading me not to 

kill   the   Duke。   SECOND   MURDERER。   Take   the   devil   in   thy   mind   and 

believe him not�察�he would insinuate with thee but to make the sigh。 FIRST

MURDERER。 I am strong´fram'd�察�he cannot prevail with me。 SECOND 

MURDERER。  Spoke  like  a   tall   man   that   respects   thy  reputation。   Come�察�

shall we fall to work�拭�FIRST MURDERER。 Take him on the costard with 

the hilts of thy sword�察�and then chop him in the malmsey´butt in the next 

room。   SECOND   MURDERER。   O   excellent   device�   �and   make   a   sop   of 

him。    FIRST    MURDERER。          Soft�  �he   wakes。    SECOND       MURDERER。 

Strike�   �FIRST   MURDERER。   No�察  �we'll   reason   with   him。   CLARENCE。 

Where art thou�察�Keeper�拭�Give me a cup of wine。 SECOND MURDERER。 

You shall have wine enough�察�my lord�察�anon。 CLARENCE。 In God's name�察�

what art thou�拭�FIRST MURDERER。 A man�察�as you are。 CLARENCE。 But 

not   as   I   am�察  �royal。   SECOND   MURDERER。   Nor   you   as   we   are�察  �loyal。 

CLARENCE。   Thy   voice   is   thunder�察  �but   thy   looks   are   humble。   FIRST 

MURDERER。           My    voice   is  now    the  King's�察  �my    looks   mine    own。 

CLARENCE。 How darkly and how deadly dost thou speak� �Your eyes do 

menace me。 Why look you pale�拭�Who sent you hither�拭�Wherefore do you 

come�拭�SECOND MURDERER。 To�察�to�察�to´ CLARENCE。 To murder me�拭�

BOTH MURDERERS。 Ay�察�ay。 CLARENCE。 You scarcely have the hearts 

to tell me so�察�And therefore cannot have the hearts to do it。 Wherein�察�my 

friends�察�have I offended you�拭�FIRST MURDERER。 Offended us you have 

not�察  �but  the   King。   CLARENCE。        I  shall  be   reconcil'd   to  him   again。 

SECOND         MURDERER。         Never�察   �my    lord�察 �therefore    prepare   to   die。 

CLARENCE。  Are   you   drawn   forth   among   a   world   of   men   To   slay   the 

innocent�拭�What is my offence�拭�Where is the evidence that doth accuse me�拭�

What lawful quest have given their verdict up Unto the frowning judge�察�or 

who pronounc'd The bitter sentence of poor Clarence' death�拭�Before I be 

convict by course of law�察�To threaten me with death is most unlawful。  I 

charge you�察�as you hope to have redemption By Christ's dear blood shed 

for our grievous sins�察�That you depart and lay no hands on me。 The deed 

you undertake is damnable。 FIRST MURDERER。 What we will do�察�we do 

upon command。 SECOND MURDERER。 And he that hath commanded is 

our King。 CLARENCE。 Erroneous vassals� �the great King of kings Hath 

in the tables of his law commanded That thou shalt do no murder。 Will you 

then    Spurn   at  his  edict  and   fulfil  a  man's�拭 �Take   heed�察  �for  he  holds 

vengeance      in  his  hand   To  hurl   upon   their  heads   that  break   his  law。

SECOND MURDERER。 And that   same vengeance doth he hurl on thee 

For    false   forswearing�察    �and   for  murder     too�察 �Thou     didst  receive    the 

sacrament       to  fight   In   quarrel    of  the   house    of   Lancaster。     FIRST 

MURDERER。 And like a traitor to the name of God Didst break that vow�察�

and with thy treacherous blade Unripp'dst the bowels of thy sov'reign's son。 

SECOND MURDERER。 Whom thou wast   sworn to cherish and   defend。 

FIRST   MURDERER。   How   canst   thou   urge   God's   dreadful   law   to   us�察�

When   thou   hast   broke   it   in   such   dear   degree�拭  �CLARENCE。   Alas�   �for 

whose sake did I that ill deed�拭�For Edward�察�for my brother�察�for his sake。 

He sends you not to murder me for this�察�For in that sin he is as deep as I。 If 

God will be avenged for the deed�察�O�察�know you yet He doth it publicly。 

Take   not   the   quarrel   from   His   pow'rful   arm�察  �He   needs   no   indirect   or 

lawless     course    To   cut   off   those   that   have    offended    Him。     FIRST 

MURDERER。           Who    made    thee   then   a  bloody   minister    When     gallant´ 

springing brave Plantagenet�察�That princely novice�察�was struck dead by thee�拭�

CLARENCE。           My    brother's    love�察  �the   devil�察  �and   my    rage。    FIRST 

MURDERER。   Thy   brother's   love�察  �our   duty�察  �and   thy   faults�察  �Provoke   us 

hither now to slaughter thee。 CLARENCE。 If you do love my brother�察�hate 

not me�察�I am his brother�察�and I love him well。 If you are hir'd for meed�察�go 

back   again�察  �And   I   will   send   you   to   my   brother   Gloucester�察  �Who   shall 

reward you better for my life Than Edward will for tidings of my death。 

SECOND MURDERER。 You are deceiv'd�此�your brother Gloucester hates 

you。 CLARENCE。 O�察�no�察�he loves me�察�and he holds me dear。 Go you to 

him from me。 FIRST MURDERER。 Ay�察�so we will。 CLARENCE。 Tell him 

when     that   our  princely    father   York   Bless'd    his  three   sons   with   his 

victorious arm And charg'd us from his soul to love each other�察�He little 

thought of this divided friendship。 Bid Gloucester think of this�察�and he will 

weep。   FIRST   MURDERER。   Ay�察  �millstones�察  �as   he   lesson'd   us   to   weep。 

CLARENCE。 O�察�do not slander him�察�for he is kind。 FIRST MURDERER。 

Right�察�as snow in harvest。 Come�察�you deceive yourself�此�'Tis he that sends 

us   to   destroy   you   here。   CLARENCE。   It   cannot   be�察  �for   he   bewept   my 

fortune And hugg'd me in his arms�察�and swore with sobs That he would 

labour    my    delivery。  FIRST   MURDERER。            Why�察   �so  he  doth�察  �when    he 

delivers you From this earth's thraldom to the joys of heaven。 SECOND

MURDERER。          Make     peace   with   God�察  �for  you    must   die�察 �my   lord。 

CLARENCE。 Have you that holy feeling in your souls To counsel me to 

make my peace with God�察�And are you yet to your own souls so blind That 

you will war with God by  murd'ring me�拭�O�察�sirs�察�consider�此�they that set

MURDERER。 Relent� �No�察�'tis cowardly and womanish。 CLARENCE。 Not
