kingdom can buy out the sin�察�I'll say�察�it is my duty to persuade�察�But not her
honesty to give consent。
��Enter Countess。�А�
See where she comes�察 �was never father had Against his child an
embassage so bad��COUNTESS。 My Lord and father�察 �I have sought for
you�此�My mother and the Peers importune you To keep in presence of his
majesty�察�And do your best to make his highness merry。
WARWICK。 ��Aside。��How shall I enter in this graceless arrant�拭�I must
not call her child�察�for where's the father That will in such a suit seduce his
child�拭�Then�察�'wife of Salisbury'�察�shall I so begin�拭�No�察�he's my friend�察�and
where is found the friend That will do friendship such indammagement�拭�
��To the Countess。�А�
Neither my daughter nor my dear friend's wife�察�I am not Warwick�察�as
thou thinkst I am�察�But an attorney from the Court of hell�察�That thus have
housed my spirit in his form�察�To do a message to thee from the king。 The
mighty king of England dotes on thee�此�He that hath power to take away
thy life�察�Hath power to take thy honor�察�then consent To pawn thine honor
rather than thy life�此�Honor is often lost and got again�察�But life�察�once gone�察�
hath no recovery。 The Sun�察�that withers hay�察�doth nourish grass�察�The king�察�
that would disdain thee�察 �will advance thee。 The Poets write that great
Achilles' spear Could heal the wound it made��the moral is�察�What mighty
men misdo�察�they can amend。 The Lyon doth become his bloody jaws�察�And
grace his forragement by being mild�察�When vassel fear lies trembling at
his feet。 The king will in his glory hide thy shame�察�And those that gaze on
him to find out thee�察�Will lose their eye´sight�察�looking in the Sun。 What
can one drop of poison harm the Sea�察�Whose huge vastures can digest the
ill And make it loose his operation�拭�The king's great name will temper thy
misdeeds�察�And give the bitter potion of reproach�察�A sugared�察 �sweet and
most delicious taste。 Besides�察�it is no harm to do the thing Which without
shame could not be left undone。 Thus have I in his majesty's behalf
Appareled sin in virtuous sentences�察�And dwell upon thy answer in his
suit。
COUNTESS。 Unnatural besiege� �woe me unhappy�察 �To have escaped
the danger of my foes�察�And to be ten times worse injured by friends� �Hath

he no means to stain my honest blood�察 �But to corrupt the author of my
blood To be his scandalous and vile solicitor�拭 �No marvel though the
branches be then infected�察�When poison hath encompassed the root�此 �No
marvel though the leprous infant die�察�When the stern dame invenometh the
Dug。 Why then�察 �give sin a passport to offend�察�And youth the dangerous
reign of liberty�此�Blot out the strict forbidding of the law�察�And cancel every
cannon that prescribes A shame for shame or penance for offence。 No�察�let
me die�察�if his too boistrous will Will have it so�察�before I will consent To be
an actor in his graceless lust。
WARWICK。 Why�察�now thou speakst as I would have thee speak�此�And
mark how I unsay my words again。 An honorable grave is more esteemed
Than the polluted closet of a king�此�The greater man�察�the greater is the thing�察�
Be it good or bad�察�that he shall undertake�此�An unreputed mote�察�flying in
the Sun�察�Presents a greater substance than it is�此�The freshest summer's day
doth soonest taint The loathed carrion that it seems to kiss�此�Deep are the
blows made with a mighty Axe�此�That sin doth ten times aggravate it self�察�
That is committed in a holy place�此�An evil deed�察�done by authority�察�Is sin
and subornation��Deck an Ape In tissue�察�and the beauty of the robe Adds
but the greater scorn unto the beast。 A spatious field of reasons could I
urge Between his glory�察�daughter�察�and thy shame�此�That poison shews worst
in a golden cup�察�Dark night seems darker by the lightning flash�察�Lilies that
fester smell far worse than weeds�察�And every glory that inclines to sin�察�The
shame is treble by the opposite。 So leave I with my blessing in thy bosom�察�
Which then convert to a most heavy curse�察 �When thou convertest from
honor's golden name To the black faction of bed blotting shame。
COUNTESS。 I'll follow thee�察�and when my mind turns so�察�My body
sink my soul in endless woe� �
��Exeunt。�А�

SCENE II。 The Same。 A Room in the Castle。
��Enter at one door Derby from France�察�At an other door Audley with a
Drum。�А�
DERBY。 Thrice noble Audley�察�well encountered here� �How is it with
our sovereign and his peers�拭�
AUDLEY。 Tis full a fortnight�察�since I saw his highness What time he
sent me forth to muster men�察�Which I accordingly have done�察�and bring
them hither In fair array before his majesty。
What news�察�my Lord of Derby�察�from the Emperor�拭�
DERBY。 As good as we desire��the Emperor Hath yielded to his
highness friendly aid�察�And makes our king lieutenant general In all his
lands and large dominions�察�Then via for the spatious bounds of France� �
AUDLEY。 What�察�doth his highness leap to hear these news�拭�
DERBY。 I have not yet found time to open them�察�The king is in his
closet�察�malcontent�察�For what�察�I know not�察�but he gave in charge�察�Till after
dinner none should interrupt him�此�The Countess Salisbury and her father
Warwick�察�Artois and all look underneath the brows。
AUDLEY。 Undoubtedly�察�then�察�some thing is amiss。
��Trumpet within。�А�
DERBY。 The Trumpets sound�察�the king is now abroad。
��Enter the King。�А�
AUDLEY。 Here comes his highness。
DERBY。 Befall my sovereign all my sovereign's wish� �
KING EDWARD。 Ah�察�that thou wert a Witch to make it so� �
DERBY。 The Emperour greeteth you。
��Presenting Letters。�А�
KING EDWARD。 Would it were the Countess� �
DERBY。 And hath accorded to your highness suite。
KING EDWARD。 Thou liest�察�she hath not�察�but I would she had。
AUDLEY。 All love and duty to my Lord the King� �
KING EDWARD。 Well�察�all but one is none。What news with you�拭�
AUDLEY。 I have�察�my liege�察�levied those horse and foot According to
your charge�察�and brought them hither。
24
´ Page 25´
King Edward the Third
KING EDWARD。 Then let those foot trudge hence upon those horse
According to our discharge�察 �and be gone。 Darby�察 �I'll look upon the
Countess' mind anon。
DERBY。 The Countess' mind�察�my liege�拭�
KING EDWARD。 I mean the Emperour��leave me alone。
AUDLEY。 What is his mind�拭�
DERBY。 Let's leave him to his humor。
��Exeunt。�А�
KING EDWARD。 Thus from the heart's aboundance speaks the tongue�察�
Countess for Emperour��and indeed�察�why not�拭�She is as imperator over me
And I to her Am as a kneeling vassal�察 �that observes The pleasure or
displeasure of her eye。
��Enter Lodowick。�А�
What says the more than Cleopatra's match To Caesar now�拭�
LODOWICK。 That yet�察 �my liege�察 �ere night She will resolve your
majesty。
��Drum within。�А�
KING EDWARD。 What drum is this that thunders forth this march�察�To
start the tender Cupid in my bosom�拭 �Poor shipskin�察 �how it brawls with
him that beateth it� �Go�察�break the thundring parchment bottom out�察�And I
will teach it to conduct sweet lines Unto the bosom of a heavenly Nymph�察�
For I will use it as my writing paper�察�And so reduce him from a scolding
drum To be the herald and dear counsel bearer Betwixt a goddess and a
mighty king。 Go�察�bid the drummer learn to touch the Lute�察�Or hang him in
the braces of his drum�察�For now we think it an uncivil thing�察�To trouble
heaven with such harsh resounds�此�Away� �
��Exit。�А�
The quarrel that I have requires no arms But these of mine��and these
shall meet my foe In a deep march of penetrable groans�察�My eyes shall be
my arrows�察�and my sighs Shall serve me as the vantage of the wind�察�To
whirl away my sweetest artillery。 Ah�察�but�察 �alas�察�she wins the sun of me�察�
For that is she her self�察�and thence it comes That Poets term the wanton
warrior blind�察�But love hath eyes as judgement to his steps�察�Till too much
loved glory dazzles them。

��Enter Lodowick。�А�
How now��LODOWICK。 My liege�察 �the drum that stroke the lusty
march�察�Stands with Prince Edward�察�your thrice valiant son。
��Enter Prince Edward。�А�
KING EDWARD。 I see the boy�察�oh�察�how his mother's face�察�Modeled in
his�察�corrects my strayed desire�察�And rates my heart�察�and chides my thievish
eye�察�Who�察�being rich enough in seeing her�察�Yet seeks elsewhere��and basest
