commanded�察�with your leave and favour�察�Humbly to kiss your hand�察�and
with my tongue To tell the passion of my sovereign's heart�察�Where fame�察�
late ent'ring at his heedful ears�察 �Hath plac'd thy beauty's image and thy
virtue。 QUEEN MARGARET。 King Lewis and Lady Bona�察�hear me speak
Before you answer Warwick。 His demand Springs not from Edward's well´
meant honest love�察�But from deceit bred by necessity�察�For how can tyrants
safely govern home Unless abroad they purchase great alliance�拭�To prove
him tyrant this reason may suffice�察 �That Henry liveth still�察 �but were he
dead�察�Yet here Prince Edward stands�察�King Henry's son。 Look therefore�察�
Lewis�察�that by this league and marriage Thou draw not on thy danger and
dishonour�察�For though usurpers sway the rule a while Yet heav'ns are just�察�
and time suppresseth wrongs。 WARWICK。 Injurious Margaret� �PRINCE
OF WALES。 And why not Queen�拭�WARWICK。 Because thy father Henry
did usurp�察�And thou no more art prince than she is queen。 OXFORD。 Then
Warwick disannuls great John of Gaunt�察 �Which did subdue the greatest
part of Spain�察�And�察�after John of Gaunt�察�Henry the Fourth�察�Whose wisdom
was a mirror to the wisest�察�And�察 �after that wise prince�察 �Henry the Fifth�察�
Who by his prowess conquered all France。 From these our Henry lineally
descends。 WARWICK。 Oxford�察�how haps it in this smooth discourse You
told not how Henry the Sixth hath lost All that which Henry the Fifth had

gotten�拭�Methinks these peers of France should smile at that。 But for the
rest�此�you tell a pedigree Of threescore and two years´ a silly time To make
prescription for a kingdom's worth。 OXFORD。 Why�察�Warwick�察�canst thou
speak against thy liege�察�Whom thou obeyed'st thirty and six years�察�And not
betray thy treason with a blush�拭 �WARWICK。 Can Oxford that did ever
fence the right Now buckler falsehood with a pedigree�拭�For shame� �Leave
Henry�察 �and call Edward king。 OXFORD。 Call him my king by whose
injurious doom My elder brother�察 �the Lord Aubrey Vere�察 �Was done to
death�察�and more than so�察�my father�察�Even in the downfall of his mellow'd
years�察�When nature brought him to the door of death�拭�No�察�Warwick�察�no�察�
while life upholds this arm�察 �This arm upholds the house of Lancaster。
WARWICK。 And I the house of York。 LEWIS。 Queen Margaret�察 �Prince
Edward�察�and Oxford�察�Vouchsafe at our request to stand aside While I use
further conference with Warwick。 ��They stand aloof�А �QUEEN
MARGARET。 Heavens grant that Warwick's words bewitch him not� �
LEWIS。 Now�察 �Warwick�察 �tell me�察 �even upon thy conscience�察 �Is Edward
your true king�拭 �for I were loath To link with him that were not lawful
chosen。 WARWICK。 Thereon I pawn my credit and mine honour。 LEWIS。
But is he gracious in the people's eye�拭�WARWICK。 The more that Henry
was unfortunate。 LEWIS。 Then further�此�all dissembling set aside�察�Tell me
for truth the measure of his love Unto our sister Bona。 WARWICK。 Such
it seems As may beseem a monarch like himself。 Myself have often heard
him say and swear That this his love was an eternal plant Whereof the root
was fix'd in virtue's ground�察�The leaves and fruit maintain'd with beauty's
sun�察�Exempt from envy�察�but not from disdain�察�Unless the Lady Bona quit
his pain。 LEWIS。 Now�察�sister�察�let us hear your firm resolve。 BONA。 Your
grant or your denial shall be mine。 ��To WARWICK�А �Yet I confess that
often ere this day�察�When I have heard your king's desert recounted�察�Mine
ear hath tempted judgment to desire。 LEWIS。 Then�察 �Warwick�察 �thus�此 �our
sister shall be Edward's。 And now forthwith shall articles be drawn
Touching the jointure that your king must make�察�Which with her dowry
shall be counterpois'd。 Draw near�察�Queen Margaret�察�and be a witness That
Bona shall be wife to the English king。 PRINCE OF WALES。 To Edward�察�
but not to the English king。 QUEEN MARGARET。 Deceitful Warwick�察�it

was thy device By this alliance to make void my suit。 Before thy coming�察�
Lewis was Henry's friend。 LEWIS。 And still is friend to him and Margaret。
But if your title to the crown be weak�察�As may appear by Edward's good
success�察�Then 'tis but reason that I be releas'd From giving aid which late I
promised。 Yet shall you have all kindness at my hand That your estate
requires and mine can yield。 WARWICK。 Henry now lives in Scotland at
his case�察 �Where having nothing�察 �nothing can he lose。 And as for you
yourself�察�our quondam queen�察�You have a father able to maintain you�察�And
better 'twere you troubled him than France。 QUEEN MARGARET。 Peace�察�
impudent and shameless Warwick�察 �Proud setter up and puller down of
kings� �I will not hence till with my talk and tears�察 �Both full of truth�察 �I
make King Lewis behold Thy sly conveyance and thy lord's false love�察�For
both of you are birds of self´same feather。 ��POST blowing a horn within�А�
LEWIS。 Warwick�察�this is some post to us or thee。
Enter the POST
POST。 My lord ambassador�察�these letters are for you�察�Sent from your
brother�察�Marquis Montague。 These from our King unto your Majesty。 And�察�
madam�察�these for you�察�from whom I know not。 ��They all read their letters�А�
OXFORD。 I like it well that our fair Queen and mistress Smiles at her
news�察�while Warwick frowns at his。 PRINCE OF WALES。 Nay�察�mark how
Lewis stamps as he were nettled。 I hope all's for the best。 LEWIS。
Warwick�察 �what are thy news�拭 �And yours�察 �fair Queen�拭 �QUEEN
MARGARET。 Mine such as fill my heart with unhop'd joys。 WARWICK。
Mine�察�full of sorrow and heart's discontent。 LEWIS。 What�察�has your king
married the Lady Grey�拭�And now�察�to soothe your forgery and his�察�Sends
me a paper to persuade me patience�拭�Is this th' alliance that he seeks with
France�拭 �Dare he presume to scorn us in this manner�拭 �QUEEN
MARGARET。 I told your Majesty as much before。 This proveth Edward's
love and Warwick's honesty。 WARWICK。 King Lewis�察 �I here protest in
sight of heaven�察�And by the hope I have of heavenly bliss�察�That I am clear
from this misdeed of Edward's´ No more my king�察�for he dishonours me�察�
But most himself�察�if he could see his shame。 Did I forget that by the house
of York My father came untimely to his death�拭 �Did I let pass th' abuse
done to my niece�拭�Did I impale him with the regal crown�拭�Did I put Henry

from his native right�拭�And am I guerdon'd at the last with shame�拭�Shame
on himself� �for my desert is honour�察�And to repair my honour lost for him
I here renounce him and return to Henry。 My noble Queen�察 �let former
grudges pass�察�And henceforth I am thy true servitor。 I will revenge his
wrong to Lady Bona�察 �And replant Henry in his former state。 QUEEN
MARGARET。 Warwick�察�these words have turn'd my hate to love�察�And I
forgive and quite forget old faults�察 �And joy that thou becom'st King
Henry's friend。 WARWICK。 So much his friend�察�ay�察�his unfeigned friend�察�
That if King Lewis vouchsafe to furnish us With some few bands of
chosen soldiers�察 �I'll undertake to land them on our coast And force the
tyrant from his seat by war。 'Tis not his new´made bride shall succour him�察�
And as for Clarence�察 �as my letters tell me�察 �He's very likely now to fall
from him For matching more for wanton lust than honour Or than for
strength and safety of our country。 BONA。 Dear brother�察�how shall Bona
be reveng'd But by thy help to this distressed queen�拭 �QUEEN
MARGARET。 Renowned Prince�察�how shall poor Henry live Unless thou
rescue him from foul despair�拭�BONA。 My quarrel and this English queen's
are one。 WARWICK。 And mine�察�fair Lady Bona�察�joins with yours。 LEWIS。
And mine with hers�察�and thine�察�and Margaret's。 Therefore�察�at last�察�I firmly
am resolv'd You shall have aid。 QUEEN MARGARET。 Let me give
humble thanks for all at once。 LEWIS。 Then�察�England's messenger�察�return
in post And tell false Edward�察�thy supposed king�察�That Lewis of France is
sending over masquers To revel it with him and his new bride。 Thou seest
what's past�察�go fear thy king withal。 BONA。 Tell him�察�in hope he'll prove a
widower shortly�察 �I'll wear the willow´garland for his sake。 QUEEN
MARGARET。 Tell him my mourning weeds are laid aside�察 �And I am
ready to put armour on。 WARWICK。 Tell him from me that he hath done
me wrong�察 �And therefore I'll uncrown him ere't be long。 There's thy
reward�察 �be gone。 Exit POST LEWIS。 But�察 �Warwick�察 �Thou and Oxford�察�
with five thousand men�察�Shall cross the seas and bid false Edward battle�此�
And�察�as occasion serves�察�this noble Queen And Prince shall follow with a
fresh supply。 Yet�察�ere thou go�察�but answer me one doubt�此�What pledge have
we of thy firm loyalty�拭�WARWICK。 This shall assure my constant loyalty�此�
